Teacher Survival Kit Gift
Last updated on August 23rd, 2024 at 06:57 pm
Why does it always seem like summer flies by so fast!? Seriously, it feels like the kids just ended the school year, and now we’re gearing up to start again! With only a couple weeks left before school starts, we thought we would do up a really fun Teacher Survival Kit gift.
I truly admire and honor teachers. It can’t be an easy job . I know very well……I home schooled my children for many years before my husband passed away. Teaching my kids was awesome and extremely rewarding, but it’s a lot of work and takes serious organizational skills! I can imagine how much more work for a teacher with 20-30 students. They definitely deserve a little encouragement throughout the year. In today’s post I’ll show you how to put together this perfect little gift to start off the year. It’s so easy to do and is sure to bring a smile to their face!
You could also use this survival kit idea for a gift at Christmas time using Christmas tissue and ribbon, and adding some homemade baked goods. I love it because it’s so customizable……just use your imagination. The best part is that all the items were purchased at the Dollar Store, so this teacher gift isn’t just cute, it’s really affordable as well!
