| I remember a couple of years ago walking with my | | | | for just that. Here are some ideas to help you get |
| niece to school to help her carry Christmas cookies | | | | started. |
| for the class and a Christmas gift for her teacher. I | | | | 1) Book - why not give your teacher a good book so |
| remember the look on her face when Mrs. Wilson | | | | that they can curl up on a cold winter night and relax |
| came to the door and thanked my niece for the | | | | by the fire |
| present. The look on my niece's face made it all | | | | 2) Bath Lotions or Scrubs - Bath and Body makes |
| worthwhile for standing in line at bath and body for | | | | some wonderful scents and with a price that can't be |
| 15 minutes. You see when we send Christmas | | | | beat |
| goodies to class, presents etc it makes them feel | | | | 3) Baked Goods - The last thing a teacher wants to |
| proud that they are giving to others. I think it's great | | | | do when he or she gets home after a long day is to |
| when they can actually go with you to help pick out | | | | cook, so why not send them something that you |
| the present. Any small gesture would make a | | | | and your child baked or cooked for them. |
| thoughtful gift or if you know the teacher's hobbies | | | | 4) Paperwhites - these are beautiful this time of year |
| why not give him or her something that they love to | | | | and the smell is wonderful |
| do in their spare time. Maybe he or she loves to | | | | 5) Coffee or Cocoa - send this with a cute mug. |
| garden? or maybe after a long day they just want | | | | I hope you find these ideas helpful when shopping for |
| to relax so during Christmas break they are looking | | | | the teacher in your life this Christmas. |
