Regardless of if you've started or are getting ready to get back into the swing of the school year, it is always a good idea to prepare a little something for the teacher to show you care. As a teacher myself, it always nice to feel appreciated. And as a mommy, I now have a whole new respect for teachers...especially the preschool ones!

I typically do a homemade treat for people (coworkers, neighbors, ect) to keep the cost low and make it a bit more personal.  However, I also wanted to throw in a gift card, because let's be honest, who doesn't love a gift card? This year, I made a batch of my yummy homemade granola for the boys' two classroom teachers and a jar each for the office staff. It was a HUGE hit and so easy to do!


In addition, I thew in $10 gift card to Starbucks for the teachers. I know I love to get myself a little coffee treat before school...now they could too...on Clarke and J.R.!

With my treats packed up, I added a bit of ribbon, Washi tape (duh), a handwritten note and of course...a personalized sticker. Thankfully I have a sweet stack of these set aside that were a gift from my girls Mrs. M and Mrs. E to use just for things like this. They know me so well!
