Ah, the age-old question: what should I get my kid's teacher as a gift? Perhaps a nice shiny red apple? Kidding. I think this is actually pretty simple. Something that's useful but not overly expensive and shows them that you care and appreciate their dedication to your kiddo's education. Alternatively, you could always pitch in with your fellow parents to help pay for supplies in the classroom throughout the year! Onto the list!
