Valentine’s Gifts for Teachers

What?! Another day where I have to think about doing something cute and instead run to Dunkin’ Donuts five minutes before the bus gets here to get $10 gift cards? Not this one! Luckily, Valentine’s Day is not on the obligatory “do it or your kid will be the only one who didn’t and require therapy for the rest of his life” list, it’s simply an opportunity to do something special just because.

Let’s face it – teachers are awesome. I mean, I’ve met my kids and most days I am thanking my lucky stars that there are other non-homeless people out there who are willing (and qualified) to take them off my hands for part of the day. The very least I can do is package up some festive M&M’s with a pun about being sweet and pretend my kids did it themselves. This morning I started looking around to find some good ideas (because it’s only the 8th and in my world, this makes me WAY ahead of schedule) and here’s a round up of some of the very best ones I found.
