I always think about what to give my kids’ teachers and therapists for weeks on end before I finally decide on what to do. I don’t know why I do it that way. I just want it to be THE perfect gift and for them to know they are appreciated.
I thought I would share 10 of the finalists on my list this year:
1. Cozy Toes
8. Twine wrapped Star ornament
10. Holly Jolly Christmas Treat bag
My original idea was to make the pencil star into an ornament and then make a printable to go with it that said, “Thanks for helping me shine.”, but the only kind of pencils we have are the decorated ones and I thought it would be fun to use old ones from the teachers classroom. Well, I decided it might be too much of a problem to ask my boys’ teachers to send home some pencils for them to do a craft project. I’m sure they wouldn’t mind, but I’m already driving myself crazy with other crafts needing to get done so I found the twine wrapped star ornament idea from pinterest. I had settled on that one for sure and then I went shopping at Walmart and came up with a different idea all together. I will post about it this week once I get it all finished up. I’ll give you a hint though, the rice krispie treat tree was my inspiration. 🙂
Well, thanks for stopping by today! I hope you’ll come back tomorrow to see the teacher gift I ended up making!
You’re always so good about teacher gifts. I’m HORRIBLE!! Just barely staying afloat….
I really love doing teacher gifts. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. I don’t know why. LOL I think as long as you get your kids to school and dressed and homework done and fed, you’re doing your job!! 🙂 Love you!
