Be a blessing to...

Your Child's Teacher!

I can't think of a better way to thank the person that teaches your child(ren) than with things they actually care about.  It does no good to get your child's teacher a Starbucks card if they don't like Starbucks. (Right mom?!) Not to mention, if you will take 5 or 10 minutes to get this typed up and printed it will save you TONS of time when you want to get them something special.  It eliminates most of the standing at the store, trying to figure what someone that you don't know that well, might actually like. For me, it has been so simple and I can usually put together something small very quickly.  In fact, I made Rylee's teacher and teacher's aid both Easter baskets and I was in and out of Target in about 15 minutes with everything I needed.  Here are the questions that I used:


20 Questions!

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this silly survey.  We are fully aware of how overworked and underpaid teachers are.  We want you to know that we will never take what you are doing in our child’s life for granted.  We know that the way we are able to give back to you is in no way a comparison to what you are doing in ____ life, but we do hope that at times it will help take the everyday stresses away! Please let us know if there is ANYTHING we can do to help!

Make sure if you have multiple children to inclue the spot for the teacher's name that way you don't get them mixed up.  If you have any other ideas for question, please leave them in a comment.  This can always be adapted.  It really is fun to bless them and I think that it maked a big difference to the teacher to know that the student's parents are in their corner! Like I said, this is just our idea. Take it and run with it and make it your very own!
