Need ideas for great gift for preschool teacher

[youngmom]

The end of my daughters 1st preschool year is almost here. My daughter loved school and her teachers so much that I wanted something special to thank them. Any ideas? Thanks

Welcome to the board!!

Maybe you could give them of basket of personal need items like lotion, bubble bath, etc.

My dd's preschool teachers asked at Christmas time that the children not give them individual presents but things the preschool could use such as hand towels, paper cups, napkins, etc. What about donating a toy or book to the preschool?

A plate of goodies (cookies, cinnamon rolls,etc) always go over well too!

Good Luck!!

:) Welcome to a wonderful board!! :)

Just did a little project at home with dks that would be fun.... They painted small terra cotta pots and then used their fingerprints to make flowers on them - thumbprint for the middle of the flower and petals. Paint a green stem and let her use her fingerprints for leaves. Spray with a glaze and then either plant a flower in it or fill with candy. :) Good luck!

One of my all time favorite gifts, is a little tree. As I watch the tree grow, I think about how my student is also growing. It's at home right now, but as it outgrows my home, I'm taking it to school where I can put it in a really huge pot.
