GROUPON GUIDE TO SAN-FRANCISCO

Guide to Gifts for Teachers

by Editorial Team | 07.29.2019 | OUR ULTIMATE GIFT GUIDES

Whether you're gearing up for the beginning or end of the school year, you're probably thinking of ways to show appreciation for your child's teacher. But thinking about gifts for teachers often leaves us stumped. Read on for gift ideas for teachers that go beyond a coffee mug (they have so many coffee mugs).

1

Terrarium-making class

Okay, yes, we know teachers already spend all day in a classroom. But we swear they'll love getting the change to play student for once, especially when the lesson is in how to craft their very own take-home terrarium! (Bonus: classes are often BYOB).

2

Lunch

Teachers rarely get a chance to have lunch with their colleagues. Find a deal for a restaurant near the school, and you've got one of the most-favored gifts for teachers.

3

Tickets to a Baseball Game

Hearing the crack of the bat as cheers go up around you is the epitome of summer. Give your kids' teachers an extra taste of freedom by gifting them with tickets to a game.

4

Wine Tasting or Brewery Tour

Remind teachers that summer is their time by giving them a field trip where no kids are allowed. Whether it's a wine tasting or brewery tour, they'll have the chance to forget the school year, just for a little while.

5

Mani-pedi

Now that they're not shuffling through all those papers, they'll be able to keep a great manicure and get their toes ready for summer sandals.

6

GIFT Basket

Almost no one doesn't like getting food gifts—and no teacher will mind the double negative once they receive a hefty gift basket, filled with enough treats to share with the whole team.

7

Gift Cards

When in doubt, let them pick exactly what they want.
