Teacher Appreciation Ideas

Teacher Appreciation Week is such a fun week to celebrate and thank those teachers who care for and teach our precious little ones!

Here are a few ideas for spoiling the teachers in your kids life...

Teacher Gifts

A summer book with gift cards to various places. I saw this idea on another website and we incorporated it into a little mini book. It is made from 2 lunch bags and has pockets inside where the gift cards go. Way easy.
The front cover says, "What will Mrs. Bailey do with her summer?"
Then inside it had "Eat some ice cream" - $5 gift card to Baskin Robbins
"Enjoy a good book" - $5 to Target (we don't have a bookstore close by)
"Eat some good food" - $5 to Port of Subs
"Enjoy a good movie" - $5 to Hollywood Video
"Pamper herself" - $5 to Bath & Body Works

















Another summer gift...a beach towel, magazine, sunscreen & sunglasses...tie it together and attach a card and you are good to go!


Teacher supply bins.  Saw this idea online at eighteen25 and it was so super easy I knew I had to do it too!  Found the clear compartment containers at Walmart for like $3, filled them with misc office supplies (cute paper clips, thumb tacks...anything small) and of course chocolate.  Then I decorated the front with their names.




Quick and easy one for you last minute folks out there...ahem that is ME!!




Door Signs

All these door signs I had seen the idea in a round about way online and tweaked them to fit our teachers style.

  1. I am loving every idea here! Glad I clicked over from I Heart Naptime.

    The soda is adorable, the gift card book...the teachers will LOVE. And I am really digging the towel/magazine gift idea! We may do that next year for my son's teacher! (School is already out here).

  7. This is such a great idea. Thanks for offering all your gift ideas.

    The teaching profession is a thankless job, so they say. But it should not be the case. A noble profession as it is, every teacher must be appreciated and showered with blessings. Here are 14 Preschool Teacher Gift Ideas to ponder on.
