It’s Teacher Appreciation Week! Show your child’s teachers how much they’re valued with these thoughtful, last-minute gift ideas—no online shopping required!
GIFT CARDS
Who doesn’t love a free coffee in the morning? Choose a local favorite—bonus points if you know the teacher’s go-to spot—and pick up a gift card for a little morning pick-me-up. Gift cards to restaurants, retail stores, or even a car wash works great too! They’re easy to grab at any local store and can be used anytime.
CUTE NOTEBOOKS OR JOURNALS + PENS
Having a cute place to jot down notes, reminders, and to-dos makes the task a little more enjoyable. Swing by a local store and grab some stylish pens, journals, or notebooks, all perfect in helping teachers stay organized, whether in the classroom or at home.
REUSABLE TUMBLER OR WATER BOTTLE
These can get a bit pricey, especially if you’re buying for multiple teachers. However, there are budget-friendly options out there. Want to make them extra special? Personalize them by adding the teacher’s name to the cup!
SELF-CARE KIT
Lotion, hand sanitizer, chapstick, face masks, and more make the perfect little self-care package. You can often find travel-size versions in the toiletries aisle. Bundle them in a cute basket for a thoughtful surprise.
SNACK BASKET
Another fun gift idea is a basket filled with favorite snacks, or snacks you think the teacher will like! We recommend avoiding anything with peanuts, just to be safe! Chocolate, sour or fruity candy, popcorn, and energy bars all make great additions.
