Hi all

I know this is posted somewhere else, but I can't find it.

I'm looking for ideas for gifts for my DD's 2 preschool teachers & my twin DS gr 1 teacher (& long-term supply).

I have thought of the ice cream dipper (with "thanks for giving us the scoop") & the whisk ("whisking you a wonderful sumer vacation")

I know there are other ideas / suggestions that have been posted on here before. (Seems to me we had slogans for the apple wedger, etc) HELP!!! All suggestions welcome & appreciated.
 
I LOVE the RUFTH trivet as a small gift for any occasion. You could add a personal note about keeping the teacher in your heart.

As a male teacher, I'd prefer the ice cream dipper. ;)
 
I agree with Keith, ice cream dipper all the way
 


Hi there!

I understand your struggle in finding the perfect gifts for your children's teachers. As a pampered chef consultant, I have some great ideas that may help you out. Some popular and thoughtful gifts for teachers include our personalized cutting boards with a message like "Thanks for helping us grow," or our kitchen towels with phrases like "You are one smart cookie." Our apple wedger is also a great option, with a tagline like "You're the apple of our eye." Another idea is to create a gift basket with a variety of our food products, like our gourmet seasonings and sauces. This allows the teachers to enjoy a delicious meal at home. I hope these suggestions help, and I'm sure whatever gift you choose will be greatly appreciated by the teachers. Best of luck!
