Christmas Gift Ideas For Teachers

We all have a teacher who impacted our lives in one way or another, whether they went above and beyond to help us or simply made going to school that much more enjoyable. Chances are your little one has a teacher he or she is most fond of, or perhaps you’re especially appreciative of your child’s teacher and everything they do each day. In any case, teachers deserve love and recognition, and what better way to show them you care than a Christmas gift?

There are so many ways to make their holidays extra special, and we’ve rounded up some of our favorites in this list of Christmas gift ideas for teachers.

You can’t go wrong with a handmade gift, and there are plenty of DIY crafts that are both creative and useful. A tissue paper flower pen, for example, is an easy-to-make gift that will not only look great on her desk, but will also get plenty of use. Pair it with a blank set of postcards and envelopes and you’ve got a sweet and simple gift she’ll love.

Many teachers use their own money to buy school supplies and decorations for their classrooms, so gifting supplies such as writing utensils and paper are always welcome. You could even put together a gift basket or storage tub full of things like antibacterial wipes, tissues, and other classroom necessities. A little goes a long way, and your child’s teacher will appreciate the extra goods.

Perfect for pens, pencils, and various small odds and ends, find a heavyweight teacher tote bag that's durable enough to last throughout the school year and beyond.

Teachers often have their hands full, both literally and figuratively. Consider gifting them with a canvas tote embroidered with their name or initials. You could even fill it with personalized items like pens and pencils, monogrammed stationery, and on-the-go goodies such as hand sanitizer, chewing gum, and snacks. 

Although the simplest of all these Christmas gift ideas, it just might be the most meaningful. Sometimes the best gifts are the ones that money can’t buy, such as a personalized card from Creatacard™.™. Customize with photos music, and a personal note —something heartfelt that delivers a compliment, appreciation or gratitude. You can even customize the envelope liner and stamp!

A stack of Open When cards is also a unique gift that keeps on giving long after the holidays are over.

Whether you decide to DIY or purchase one of the gift ideas above, remember that he or she will be grateful that you thought of them this Christmas.
