Christmas Gift Ideas for Teachers

Some people are easier to shop for than others.  Picking up legos for my five year old son, and a doll for my three year old daughter are no-brainers, but what on earth do I give their teachers at school for Christmas that I barely know??  I'm new to this game!  If you want your children's teachers/coaches/tutors to feel appreciated and valued this season, but aren't sure what gift will appropriately convey those sentiments, look no further!  Here's a round-up of cute Christmas gifts for all the influential people in your children's lives. Click on the links to find the original sources- most of them include free printables!

 Love the nail polish idea, or a gift certificate to a local nail salon for a pedicure would be fun too (for both male & femail teachers!).
