Memorable and Unique Holiday Gift Ideas For Teachers This Christmas

The holiday season is coming up, or maybe it’s already here when you’re reading this. At any rate, you’re likely on the hunt for a holiday gift for your child’s teacher. They have that special teacher this year (we’ve all experienced one in our school life, mine was Mrs. Payne…she let me ride her horse!) and you know they deserve more than just a gift card. You want to give them something thoughtful, memorable, unique and different. You want to give them a gift that really expresses your gratitude. And lucky for you to have landed here because I have that exact gift for you!

What To Give A Teacher For Christmas?

 My observations twice a year are of parents scrambling in June and December trying to figure out what to get their child’s teacher for a gift and then ultimately going with the same old generic gift card, which absolutely comes with zero judgement and I know teachers appreciate it. But in the case of that special teacher, the one who you really want to show your appreciation for, you want a gift that not only conveys appreciation but also stands out as thoughtful and meaningful and will become a keepsake for years to come. Personalized art prints are a fantastic choice for a few reasons!

Why Personalized Art Prints Make Great Gifts for Teachers

Personalized art prints are a fantastic gift choice for any teacher this holiday season. Whether the teacher is seasoned and has been teaching for 20 years or they’re a recent graduate and are embarking on their first classroom. Whether they are a kindergarten teacher or have a classroom full of stinky pre-pubescent tweens, this gift will certainly touch their heart. 

A personalized art print provides a lasting and thoughtful memento that teachers can proudly display in their classrooms or homes, serving as a constant reminder of the impact they have made on their students' lives during their career. 

This custom print features the name of the teacher and the year they started teaching. If you don’t know the year, you have some homework on your hands! You can further customize it by choosing from over 15 centre designs and five different border options. If you happen to know what their favourite flower or tree is, you can also include that design to personalize it even more! There is an even an option to convert it to french is your child is in french immersion.

 Tips for Presenting Your Gift in a Thoughtful Way

To ensure that your gift makes a lasting impression and can be thoroughly enjoyed for years to come, you’ll want to give it in a frame. You have a few options here:

1. You can frame it with a store bought frame, there are tons of awesome options in a variety of stores from Michaels to HomeSense/HomeGoods, Indigo or even West Elm.

2. You can get it professionally framed by a framer. If you choose the second option you could potentially go in on this gift with one of your kids classmates. Maybe their BFF is in their class, they could give this gift to their teacher together.

3. There is a third option as well, give the teacher the print along with a gift card to a local framing shop and let them choose their own frame.

Whichever option you choose, I have another suggestion to really personalize this holiday gift…have your child write a little note on a piece of paper and attach it to the back of the print or frame. Include the year and grade of the student as well. It will become a sort of time capsule for the teacher down the road. Imagine they’re in their last year of teaching and they take this piece of art off their classroom wall and turn it around and remember this student from 25 years ago. Just a special touch to add to an already thoughtful gift!

Surprise your child's teacher with a truly special and personalized gift this holiday season. Show your appreciation for all their hard work and dedication by giving them a custom art print that they will cherish for years to come. Make this holiday season even more memorable for the teacher in your life. Remember, a thoughtful gift can go a long way in expressing gratitude. So go ahead, add a personal touch to their classroom with a custom art print and make this holiday season one they'll never forget.
