There are nearly endless ideas to show teachers in your life how much you appreciate them. It’s because of their time and effort that the students of today become educated adults in the future. Try one of these unique teacher appreciation gift ideas for the teacher in your life.
5 Unique Gift Ideas to Celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week
Classics like coffee shop gift cards and dry erase markers are a good idea. But if you want to show appreciation with a thoughtful gift that stands out from the crowd, try one of these five!
Car Wash
No, you don’t need to wash their car yourself. A gift certificate for a car wash and interior detail is a great gift idea. Most teachers drive a car, and with their busy schedule, they may not have had time to spring clean it yet!
Caffeinated Snack Foods
Not everyone loves coffee or tea. As a token of appreciation for their hard work, consider getting the teacher in your life a caffeinated snack. There are many unique and delicious options, like peanut butter, beef jerky, and even ice cream. More are listed here.
Child-Safe Essential Oils
While not everyone has an oil diffuser (though that’s another fun gift idea!), essential oils can still be a great way for teachers to make their classrooms feel calm and smell nice. Be sure you consider student allergies when choosing the scents. There are many options for calming, soothing, and even brain-boosting essential oils.
Homemade Preserves
This is similar to other homemade treats but stands out because preserves last so long. Cookies or other baked goods may get stale, but a jar of homemade jam, pickles, or other preserved food is a tasty way to show appreciation with something that’s easy to store and lasts.
Homemade Card
While it may seem like a classic teacher gift, a kind letter in a homemade card is unique to the teacher who receives it. Don’t hesitate to offer some appreciation in the form of words on paper, as this could not only brighten the teacher’s day but could be a keepsake they go back to read whenever they’re feeling a bit blue.
