1. A little basket with all the ingredients to make fresh guacamole. Attached was a picture of the student and the phrase “Holy Guacamole you are a great teacher!” and on the back was the recipe. It has been on my fridge for years and is my go-to everytime I make guac.
2. A great end-of-the-year gift was a huge beach towel with a penguin on it (which the kids learned was my favorite!) and stuffed inside the rolled up towel was a penguin water bottle, and a $10 gift card to a book store for a new “beach read.”
3. A parent learned that my husband has Parkinsons Disease so he can’t use his hands well. She got me an automatic wine bottle opener with a note attached saying, “Now your hubby can always be ready for celebrations.” It wasn’t the gift as much as the fact she learned something personal about me!
Great ideas on this page!!!! Thank you!!

I got a little wooden carved chicken and a family somewhere in the world received a real chicken! Loved it!

I got the bags of mini Nabisco chocolate chip cookies and Oreo cookies. I put a handwritten note on it that said “If you give a teacher a cookie, she’s going to want a glass of milk!” They loved it and one teacher even asked for the milk!

Lingerie
Clearance gravy boats
Way expired lotions
Empty gift cards
Dead plants
Rose art brand supplies

A handmade card or wildflower would’ve been preferred.

You can almost be guaranteed the teacher will spend it on the class one way or the other!!!

Honestly I’m amazed to get any gift at all. As a professional, you don’t expect to get gifts for doing your job, but teaching is a special calling so it is wonderful to be appreciated. The thought and care put into this list is so awesome! Thank you!
