What to give teachers for Teacher Appreciation Day
We LOVE celebrating our teachers. We probably have more Teacher Appreciation Gift ideas than anything else here on our blog. Teachers spend almost as much time as we do with our kids so it’s always nice to show some love and appreciation for them! Today we are sharing the perfect gift for teachers day plus we have some friends sharing their ideas for small gifts for teachers as well.
We made a Mom’s Emergency Stash last year and knew we needed one for the Teachers too. In the past we put together this Box of Teacher Goodies, which is very similar, but it didn’t have a printable tag. So now we do and it’s a cheap teacher appreciation gift that you can put together in about 5 minutes.
Here’s what you’ll need: (affiliate links included)
- Bead Organizer – you can find these at most craft stores (in the bead section) and Walmart even carried them at one point
- Ribbon
- Chocolates
- Teacher’s Emergency Stash Tag – Download HERE
- We also have a blank tags – Download HERE
If you’d like to edit the tag and add your teacher’s name use the blank tags. Or you can even just write your teacher’s name on one of the blank tags.
Fill in all the compartments with chocolates. Then download, print and trim your tag. Attach it with some ribbon and you are done. Isn’t it just the best teacher appreciation gift idea? And so, so easy!!

My most memorable teacher was my high school English teacher. She wore a Puritan robe when we read The Scarlet Letter, we ate pickles from a ruby red pickle dish when we read Ethan Frome and she had a chambered nautilus for us to inspect when we read the classic from Oliver Wendel Holmes. I still have a paper that I wrote that earned a nearly impossible 100 and her comment “A rip and a hoot! Bravo!” She was inspiring and encouraging and truly an amazing woman!

Download the blank tag and then use some kind of program like photoshop, photoshop elements or a free program called picmonkey. 🙂 Hope that helps!!

My favorite was Mrs. Walters. She was our science teacher and she always made it fun and interesting. She really knew how to bring science to life in her classroom.

My most memorable teacher was Coach Young. She was tough and no nonsense, but she was still respectful and had us actively engaged.

There were so many great ones…Mrs. Johnson in 7th grade English was always hilarious and cool though. She made the boring stuff worth our attention.
