At some stage in our own lives, or in the lives of our children hopefully all of us have experienced the absolute joy we feel when a teacher GETS US or is just THE RIGHT FIT for our kids.

And sadly, many of us have probably experienced the frustration and disappointment that goes with the flip side of that too!

A teacher can certainly make or break your child’s or, your own experience of school and further education.

This is especially so when you have a child with SPECIAL NEEDS. Learning disabilities such as ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and so on can become so MUCH MORE MANAGEABLE if your child has a teacher who goes out of their way to make school a really positive experience for your child.

Homemade baskets make EXCELLENT teacher gift ideas, you can fill them up all sorts of treats you know your teacher loves.

Get creative with your containers too. Don't just stick to the classic basket, use CLASSROOM THEMED CONTAINERS such as wastepaper bins or desk trays, or even brightly colored storage boxes. These will all make super containers for your teacher gift ideas.
