{Updated with FREE Printable Tag}
With the school year closing, I have been trying to come up with a gift for my son's preschool teachers. I wanted something fun to express my gratitude for the way they have loved my little guy throughout the school year. They really have helped him to learn and grow into the amazing person he is becoming. Once I figured out exactly what it was that I wanted to say, the rest fell into place.
I found these cute plants -with containers, at Wal-mart. I used hot-glue to add a little bit of ribbon and a button, just to jazz things up a bit. Then I tied a little ribbon to the end of a ruler and taped a card on that I made with the sweet sentiment ,"Thanks for Helping me Learn and Grow!"
Perfect!!! What a fabulous gift, don't you think? I love this idea because it is so versatile! Plants can be found to fit just about every personality and budget! The same is true for containers - you could even just use a pack of bedding plants if you wanted. Use ribbon, don't. Whatever, just make it your own!
New!!!! Print these free tags to use for your teacher gift! I used a 3" scallop circle punch
. If you don't have one, use a clear glass as a template, turn it upside down, center it around the tag, trace around the tag, and cut it out.
Learn and Grow Printable. If you don't have one, use a clear glass as a template, turn it upside down, center it around the tag, trace around the tag, and cut it out. I would love to hear about your teacher gift ideas!
I am sharing this idea with:
I am glad that you shared some little things about your little angel. I was happy that you appreciate teachers. By the way my mom was a teacher but she already retired due to old age. :) She also receive so many gifts. But the best gift that she received was a plant gift specifically Bonsai Plants. She had them grow and reproduced. Then made them as gifts for her friends. It was fun watching them grow as time goes by. Try to check out some Bonsai Plants and have them as gifts. :)By the way, do you have any idea about some sort of packaging stuff?
ReplyDeleteThis is cute! Great idea! I'm sure the teacher appreciated this.
ReplyDeleteIan, what kind of packaging are you looking for? For a plant? Actually, I am a certified teacher - I just figure that my kids are little for such a short time that I had better enjoy them - I can teach forever. When I had my classroom, plants were really fun to get as presents from students.
ReplyDeleteDebbi - I am so glad you like it! The plants were actually only $5 each so this was super affordable! But, like I said, you could change it up to fit any personality or budget. That's the fun of it!
I am trying to check our for some packaging for Bonsai plants. Do you have any example pictures of the packaging? Like pots and baskets?
ReplyDeleteThis is darling! With three kids in school, having 5 teachers, I need an easy, quick idea for teacher gifts. Tomorrow is our last day, yay!s
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling and thoughtful gift.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by today. I'd love to come visit you! But in lieu of that, I am designing a line of PIY (paint it yourself) kits. I hope you'll give them a try and let me know what you think!
That is darling Jaysey!

ReplyDeleteReally cute. But would not let me download for free like it said. I had to get a membership that cost money.
ReplyDeleteWhat, Jen!?! No! It is supposed to be free. I have never had any problems like this before. I will check on this and see what I can do. Thanks for letting me know!
