Great Gifts for Your Teacher Friends

Do you exchange gifts with other teachers at your school? I always try to find special, personlized gifts for my teammates. Here are some great gifts for your teacher friends.

Buying great gifts for your teacher friends can be a challenge. Check out these special and personalized gift ideas.

Great Gifts for Your Teacher Friends

Christmas is approaching, and it’s time for me to select gifts for my teammates again. Those gifts are always the hardest for me to choose. Last year, I found the perfect gift, and it’s going to be hard to top these personalized pillows. I’ve been searching for an equally great gift for this year and figured I’d share some of the cute things I’ve found. Hopefully, they’ll give you some ideas for great gifts for your teacher friends.

#1 – Personalized Clipboards

A few years ago, my teammate bought adorable personalized clipboards for our team for Christmas. I use that clipboard every day. It holds my checklists that I use for everything. 

I can’t get my team clipboards since we already have them, but these Erin Condren designs are so pretty. You can personalize them and choose a design each of your teacher friends will love.

#2 – Wax Warmer

Last year for Christmas, one of my students gave me a Scentsy. I didn’t even take it out of the box until the beginning of this year, and now I regret it. I love the way my classroom smells when I turn it on in the morning. Right now, we’re enjoying pumpkin spice for fall.

I found this cute sunflower pattern wax warmer. Then, I discovered this Bookworm Soy Melt for Book Lovers. Wouldn’t that be the perfect combination for a gift? Just make sure your school allows wax warmers before you purchase it. Some schools have restrictions on what can be plugged into the classroom outlets.

#3 – Team Shirts

The first grade team at my building has matching first grade team shirts. I’m jealous every time they wear them. They look so cute in their matching outfits.

Team T-shirts would be great gifts for your teacher friends. I love this design!

#4 – Planner Set

We all know that teachers are planners. With the new year approaching, a new planner would be a great gift. I love the Erin Condren planners, because I can personalize them. Check out the Teacher Lesson Planner I got for this school year.

This Monthly Planner and markers would make a perfect set for a teacher who loves organization and planning.

#5 – Tea

Every teacher needs something warm to get them through the morning. Whether it’s coffee or tea, getting their favorite blend could be a great gift. Check out these amazing Author Teas. There are 48 different authors, and each one has a different blend of tea and an amazing quote. If your teacher friends are fans of literature, these may be a great gift idea.

#6 – Wine

If your teacher friends aren’t tea drinkers, they might appreciate wine more. These adorable Santa pants will hold 2 bottles of wine or a bottle of wine on one side and some yummy snacks on the other side. This is a super cute gift that doesn’t even need to be wrapped.

#7 – Personalized Notepads

We are constantly writing notes to students and other teachers. These cute personalized notepads are perfect for any teacher. I love the adorable designs at the bottom of each one.
