Getting To Know Your Teacher

Last year Taylor started Kindergarten. I felt lost whenever it came to holidays or when I just wanted to get the teacher a little "pick me up". I love giving gifts!! Gifts are my love language, and I love to give little surprises.

Gifts are much more meaningful if you give someone something they will actual enjoy. I know its the thought that counts but you don't want to take coffee and a snickers to someone who really would rather have chips and a coke.

I felt that these special ladies were taking care of and teaching my little one all day yet I knew so little about them. This year I decided with one in K-5 and one in First I better get on the ball and get to know our teachers. I made the following list, printed it, gave it to the teachers to fill out and then asked them to return them to me. I'm going to make copies to give to the other parents. You can add to or take away to make your own teacher survey. Just copy and past into word or another program you use.

Personalized baby Gifts are mainly those which require a bit of extra time and work done by the gift giver. You can buy a gift from a store and then add a few items in it to make it personalized or you can make a gift all by yourself. No other gift than a personalized one can make the parents of a new born baby happier. That is because a personalized gift expresses your deepest love and affection for the baby and the family.
