Books: What better way to give a gift to your teacher and to the classroom. Books are a wonderful addition and always welcomed. Find out your teachers favorite author and pick a few from their list!

Clorox Wipes: I'm in constant need these! I would be thrilled if a student brought in a two-pack for Christmas! It's the little things that count :)

Gift Cards for the classroom: Receiving gift cards to a local teacher store is awesome! I get to purchase some extra things we need for the classroom.
Gift cards for the teacher: If a student wants to get something for me personally, gift cards are always great! I rarely get breakfast or coffee for myself but in the past if I've received a gift card to Tim Hortons or Starbucks, I make sure to bring in my coffee and tell the student I used their gift to buy my coffee that morning. They usually think that is pretty cool.

Hand Sanitizer: Love these personalized hand sanitizers for the classroom!

Homemade Gifts: I love receiving homemade gifts! It amazes me at how crafty and creative some of my parents and students are. Last year I received one of the most unique gifts that I use quite often...rice bag warmers! My student made me a large bag, medium bag, and two small bags for your hands. I thought they were such a wonderful idea!

Pens: I'm obsessed with pens. Any kind really but I'm obsessed with Paper Mate Flair Felt Pens. I buy a new pack every year and get so excited to open the new package! They're kind of pricey but totally worth it!

But in the end, a hug and a Merry Christmas would be just perfect.
What are some of your favorite gifts to give teachers?
Oooh I love the rice hand warmers. I agree that gift cards and books are some of my favorite gifts to receive as a teacher. I also feel like ever since Pinterest came along I have been getting some really unique and crafty gifts from my students! :)
ReplyDeleteRight there with you on the gift ideas! Needless to say this year I have a class that I can't even get the parents to volunteer so I can attend the teacher Christmas luncheon. I'd love some boxes of tissue too:)
