Every year, I like to put together teacher gifts that feel thoughtful, practical, and easy to personalize. This year, we had a few different groups to gift - the girls’ classroom teachers, the school front office staff, and their dance teachers - so I created slightly different versions for each group while keeping the overall feel cohesive.

For the classroom teachers, I focused on everyday items they could keep in their classroom or toss into a purse or desk drawer. Simple self-care pieces, small treats, and gift cards paired with a handwritten note made these feel special without being over the top.

For the school front office, I kept the gifts just as practical, with the same self-care touches included in the teachers’ baskets - a small way to say thank you to the people who keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.

And for the dance teachers, I wanted gifts that felt useful for long days at the studio - small self-care items, treats, and things that could easily fit into a dance bag or be enjoyed after rehearsals.

All of the gifts this year were built around simple containers and reusable packaging, making it easy to mix and match items depending on budget or group size. I’ve linked everything I used throughout this post so you can recreate these gifts exactly or swap in items you already have at home.
