Celebrate Your Favorite Teachers
Teaching is a tough job, whether it’s teaching kindergarten students how to read, essay writing to middle schoolers, or chemistry to high school students. Their hard work, dedication to our kids, and endless amounts of patience don’t go unnoticed. During Teacher Appreciation Week, we get to celebrate those amazing educators that show up every day for our kids. So, let’s skip the usual gifts — coffee mugs and a hand lotion set — and get creative with their gifts! From self care and splurges to thoughtful gifts, here are the gifts your child’s teacher will adore.
Masterclass
Teachers are lifelong learners. So, give your favorite teacher the chance to learn something new and exciting with Masterclasses: a cooking class from Gordon Ramsey, a poetry class from Amanda Gorman, singing lessons from Mariah Carey, to name a few. From world leaders to icons, there are so many amazing classes your child’s teacher can enjoy.

Essential Oil Diffuser
Whether they use this diffuser in their classroom or take it home, it will help make their surroundings calmer, more relaxed, and smell better too.
