Teachers work extremely hard throughout the year, and although there’s no perfect time to thank them for their hard work, the festive season is the perfect opportunity to show our gratitude. So, the golden question is, what do we gift them?

Teacher Stamps

There are plenty of creative designs out there for you to personalise your teacher stamp gift. Instead of the classic “Excellent Work!” or “Great Job!”, why not opt for a personalised illustration to make the stamp look like the teacher you’re gifting it to? They’ll be sure to love it!

Teacher Tote Bag

There’s nothing worse than carrying heavy piles of students’ notebooks across the school every day, so why not gift your teacher friend a sturdy tote bag that they can easily carry all their teaching materials to and from the classroom?

Personalised Reusable Coffee Cup

Not only can they get discounted Starbucks in the morning by bringing their own reusable coffee cup, but the personalised feature also ensures no colleagues take a sneaky sip thinking it’s theirs. No room for confusion here!

Personalised Teacher Name Plate

Great for any teacher to add a sweet touch to their classroom decoration, a beautifully designed name plate goes a long way to bring the whole class design together.

Gift Cards

If you can’t decide on a physical gift, why not give them what they want the most? Something they can pick out themselves! The teacher has the freedom to purchase anything they may need for their class, and they’ll be forever grateful!

Daily Planner

Educators love to plan and organise their daily schedules, and their to-do lists can sometimes be never ending. A planner will help keep their workload under control and their minds at ease.

Desk Plants

A perfect way to bring more nature and green into the classroom – small desk plants. Not only do they look great, but they’ll cleanse the air and provide the students with the perfect opportunity for taking responsibility of watering them each day.

Succulent Pots

Whilst teachers may love a good desk plant, they don’t think about the pots that we can store them in! So why not combine these two gifts together? There are plenty of pots out there with cute catchphrases or quotes.

Desk Timer

Every teacher needs a timer of some sorts on their desk to keep activities under control and on schedule. It’s also a great tool for students to know how much longer they have left to complete tasks.

Hand Cream

This may be a common one, but it is certainly useful! Classrooms can get very dry during cold winters, and with all the hand-washing us teachers do to avoid getting sick, it’s no wonder our hands have more cracks than the Grand Canyon! A hand cream really is a saving grace.
