Scripture Cards for Teachers

When I worked as a teacher, I received so many coffee mugs. And I don’t even drink coffee!
Of course, I loved receiving a gift from my students no matter how many coffee mugs I had but they usually ended up at KARM (our local thrift store).

What really meant the most to me was a heart felt card from parents and kids. Knowing that I was making a positive impact on the lives of kids and their families was so encouraging.

Hopefully these teacher gift ideas will help you find the perfect gift for your child’s teacher. Something they truly can enjoy. Remember it doesn’t have to be expensive to be meaningful!
