Teachers play an important role in your child’s life. At Primrose schools, teachers create a space of hugs and snuggles, of curiosity and adventure, of compassion and kindness, and so much more.
They teach with passion because it’s not just a job; it’s a calling. It’s a mission to make a difference in the world by positively impacting the youngest children. And that’s something worth celebrating.
May is Teacher Appreciation Month at Primrose Schools and with end-of-year celebrations just around the corner, here are a few ideas for easy, handmade gifts that show your appreciation for everything your child’s teachers do day in and day out.

- For a coffee- or tea-loving teacher:
- Decorate a mug with nontoxic permanent paint pens or oil paint and bake the mug to make your design last. This is a really sweet idea to do with small children. You could even have your child decorate a cup for you!
- For the sentimental teacher:
- Take a photo of your child sitting next to or holding up a sign that says “thank you” and use that picture as the front of a folded card or put it in a frame. Have your child color the frame matte or write a thank you note in the card.
- For the teacher with a green thumb:
- Have your child paint a flowerpot and fill it with a plant or gardening tools. Here is one fun painted pot idea for your child to try!
- For the note-jotting, list-making teacher:
- Create custom stationery with your child’s drawings.
