1. Classroom items

Many teachers take on the responsibility of providing their own supplies and tools for the classroom. They also decorate their classroom to create a unique vibe for the new school year. There are plenty of possibilities with a Cricut cutting machine to create personalized decor projects to make the classroom more inspiring for the kids.

2. Personalized gifts

Coffee mugs, T-shirt, tote bag or even a nice plant pot, there are lots of great gifts ideas out there. With Cricut, a simple gift can become a unique item the teacher won’t find anywhere else. Because we made it especially for them. Adding a personal touch to thank the teacher and show our appreciation ensures the moment becomes a great souvenir!

3. Thank you cards

Never underestimate the power of a good thank you card. Whether it accompanies a separate gift or is the gift, sometimes just a few kind words become the most thoughtful gift. Take some time to write out what you appreciate most from your teacher. While you’re at it — consider sending that thoughtful thank you note via email and cc’ing the principal or school admin, like some comments on this Reddit thread suggest.
