The best teacher appreciation gifts are heartfelt and practical, and generally fall into one of two categories: something that can be used in the classroom to enhance students’ experiences, or something that expresses gratitude for a job well done. And don’t underestimate the power of a note of thanks paired with cash in the form of a gift card. After all, teachers often spend their own money on supplies for their classrooms, and there’s a limit to the number of coffee mugs or candles one person can use. Our advice: Avoid items that a teacher may already own or things that are over-the-top expensive, which can fall into an against-school-policy gray area unless you pool resources from multiple parents or families.
Mom’s looking for the perfect neutral baby gear…this list is for you. As a first time mom, I’m not a fan of all the baby gear in black but I also don’t want too many colorful items that scream “baby girl”. This list is some of the items that I found that come in the perfect neutrals.
We love learning in this family, but we also think learning should be through play, especially for little kids! Dont overthink it, just have FUN! This list is to help you find some ideas for more structures learning through play, but please know that little kids are always learning. *** Also, in preschool, I encourage you to incorporate a lot of sensory time, and movement. A lot of these games could be done on the go, or restaurants, picnics, etc. I do have sensory board, if you are interested in that topic (movement board coming soon).
We have officially started our very first homeschool year! We have a kindergartner and a prekindergartener and they are so excited for the school year.
