Your child has learned a lot this year! Here are 10 great ideas to give a fitting thank you to your teacher and those who took care of them all year long!
Wine
I asked four teachers for ideas and they all agreed: wine is a gift they love! It keeps for a long time, tastes good, and even for teachers who don't drink, it's always handy to have some at home when entertaining. Around $20, the Château Picoron, Saint-Émilion, Beringer rosé, Kim Crawford (white), Ménage à trois and several wines found in the “Speci alties” section of the SAQ make excellent gifts.
Bookstore Gift Card
In general, teachers like books. The proof, they like to read enough to pass on their passion to your children. As it is difficult to know what someone has already read and what they like to read, do not hesitate to offer them a gift card from Renaud-Bray,Archambault or another bookstore near the school.
DeSerres Gift Card
A gift card at DeSerres is always appropriate andcan be used to buy stationery, a diary, a nice notebook, accessories for crafts, decorating cakes, framing photos, making necklaces, etc.
Stickers
Your child has spent the year with his teacher and may want to choose his own gift. If so, let them choose stickers to put on next year's student work. Your child will be happy to know that his teacher will be thinking of him next year and the teacher will have one less thing to buy for the start of the school year.
Teapot and tea
If a David's Tea shop or delicatessen is near you, you can buy some tea flavors or jasmine flowers or a nice teapot.
Delicatessen
Delicatessens are full of gift ideas. Simon Turcotte jams, good quality olive oil, maple products, exotic s alts, coulis, cheeses and spices are wonderful gifts to to offer. We always like to receive products that we don't offer ourselves every day.
Bubble bath
To relax after a whole year of caring for twenty children, a good quality bubble bath is ideal. My favorite? The bubble bath divine pear from Dans un jardin and the one with French vanilla at Séphora.
Gardening set
An apron to hold tools, a small shovel, seeds to plant, nice gloves… Rona, Canadian Tire and nurseries sell beautiful gardening tools for a teacher who has all summer ahead of him…
Chocolate
A classic! Chocolate is always delicious, so don't hesitate to offer beautiful chocolates, truffles, candy canes and imported candies to your favorite teacher.
Give a big gift to several people
If you know the other parents in the class, you can also offer a more expensive gift by forming a group of parents. A dinner in a great restaurant, a massage, a spa package, a bottle of champagne will certainly make him happy.
