School is winding down for most of us, and maybe some of your kiddos are already out. With preschool being a new venture for me, I tend to forget about things like bringing snacks on my snack day and buying teacher gifts on holidays. Luckily, my MIL is a teacher, so she periodically reminds me about these things :)
I know that many teachers tend to get food gifts - and hey, don't get me wrong, I love getting 5 pounds of chocolate as much as the next girl - but I'm sure all the chocolate can be a little overwhelming at times. Not that I know, I "helped" finish my kids' Halloween candy within the month, and there's definitely no leftover Easter candy.
I'm just living for the next holiday people.
With that in mind, I decided to give a non-food gift, and instead came up with this cute printable to add to some potted flowers that says, "Thank you for helping me GROW!" Corny? Maybe, but I love it and I hope they will too!
I just love these flowers. I have no idea what kind they are (anyone else know??) but they remind me of something out of a Dr. Seuss book.
If you want to do something similar for your child's teachers, you can download my free printables by clicking HERE .
To attach the tag, all I did was punch a couple of holes in the side and string some baker's twine through the holes.
If you're not into the large potted plants, I also made a smaller tag for individual potted plants. I hot glued the tag onto a paper straw and tied some ribbon on. Voila!
Both versions of the tag are available in the download. Have fun making gifts for your favorite teachers!

that is so sweet! and I love that the message could fit it with Mother's/Father's Day as well!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome!! This is a great idea that I think I must do this year - especially for Simon, who graduates from preschool this year :) Thank you for the inspiration!
