How Much to Spend

First off, it's important to note that teacher gifts are optional. You should never feel obligated to spend money on a gift for your children's teachers. Something as simple as a kind note goes a very long way and is greatly appreciated. As a teacher myself, some of my favorite gifts were "thank you" notes from caring students. But, if you really want to buy your child's teacher(s) a gift, read on.

There is no set amount you should spend on a teacher gift—it really depends on your budget. A good rule of thumb is to spend around $20-$30, but if you have a larger budget, you could go up to $50. If you have multiple children in school, you might want to consider pooling your resources with other parents to split the cost of a more expensive gift. Keep in mind that it’s the thought that counts, so even a small token of appreciation will be appreciated by your child’s teacher.

What Kind of Gifts are Appropriate?

When it comes to choosing a gift for your child’s teacher, it’s best to err on the side of caution and choose something practical. Teachers are often inundated with knick-knacks and trinkets, so something they can actually use in the classroom (or even at home) would be much appreciated (hint, a teacher lanyard that they wear on a daily basis is super practical, cute, and affordable!) Gift cards are always a good option— teachers can use them to buy supplies for their classroom or treat themselves to a well-deserved pedicure. If you’re looking for something more personal, consider a homemade gift or something that ties into one of the teacher’s hobbies or interests. For example, if your child’s art teacher is also a coffee lover, you could get her a coffee mug with an artistic design.
