It’s technically Teacher Appreciation Day today, but I’ll let you in on a little secret: it’s actually Teacher Appreciation WEEK too!

Teachers spend so much time with our kids — we owe them a great deal of thanks.

One major one for us?

Although I’d like to think my husband and I are polite people, it wasn’t until he got in the classroom that he turned into a well-mannered child.

It honestly still blows my mind!

Teacher gifts don’t have to be over the top to be special. Gift cards will do the trick just fine, but if you’re hoping to choose the present on your own then I have an idea for you!

This adorable Grow Your Own Pizza Kit (I got mine from Amazon, but it’s also available at Target and several other places) is perfect for letting your child’s teacher know how grateful you are for helping your child “grow”! The kit contains sweet basil, heirloom Rutgers tomatoes, green bell peppers, Greek oregano, Italian parsley, scallions, plant markers, and pizza recipes.

So cute!

I bought one for each and made a handmade card with items I found from Joann’s, letting Fox sign the bottom of each card.

Do you have any other teacher gift ideas that you’d like to share?
