Kymbers, post-it note books are really fast and always appreciated, as are beaded pens or sets of simple notecards. Especially the notecards -- I know my son's lady teachers always appreciated those. If you don't have the diecut stationery holders just a ribbon around the cards and envelopes looks pretty!

I'm a loser Mom, I'm not doing anything for her teacher. Just couldn't find the time. Maybe I'll just get a gift card and throw it in a hand made card.

Dawn - that's great! I did a gift card in a card for Chan's teacher. I spent weeks working on the group gift, and footed the bill for the 6x6 linen scrapbook, the cardstock, and the extra pages. Noone chipped in. Loser mom = the moms that did not return the 6x6 pages I sent to them to finish with their kids. I am still chapped about that. Anyway. . .

those tins that you make are perfect, Kymber! That will be a great gift! Make sure Kasie writes a sweet note, and you're set!

Don't overlook the importance of handwritten expressions of thanks. As a teacher, nothing is more important to me than a parent telling me thank you.

The gift is so unimportant, but the sentiment is priceless.

What about a Blockbuster card and a wrapped microwave popcorn?

OMG I can't believe she's out tomorrow-my kids don't get out till June 16th! Can you imagine! We had 5 snow days to make up.
Anyway...I have decided to stick w/packs of cards for teachers this year. I have had past teachers say they like using them and that they can always use a notecards for thank you's to parents,etc. This is elementary school though,don't know if it would be diff in junior high

OK...I'm a teacher and we don't get out until June 24th!!!

In regards to your post-for a fast solution the gift card in a handmade card sounds great. Consider a gift card to a local bookstore...just an idea...
