If we calculate, it turns out that our children spend much more time in kindergarten than at home with their relatives. That is why the caregiver is much more than just “looking after”, this person cares, prompts, gives advice, teaches and entertains, and when a problem happens - he comforts. To purchase a gift for such an important person should be approached as responsibly as possible.
Useful gift ideas
When choosing a gift for a kindergarten teacher, first of all I want to pick up something not only beautiful, but also useful. It is not a secret to anyone that the salaries of the staff of preschool institutions are low, therefore it is desirable that the present could serve a good service.
Regardless of what you choose, do not forget to add flowers - women are mainly working in kindergartens, and they will always be pleased to receive a beautiful bouquet for their holiday.
Edible gifts can be presented to a preschool worker’s birthday. However, treat them with a fantasy purchase, give up the standard bouquet of alcohol and candy - it is too banal, and it is not always appropriate, because this is a kindergarten teacher. It is better to stay at one of the options presented below.
- A tea set. Nowadays, in specialized stores you can purchase fairly original kits with various types of tea or coffee. They can be decorated in the form of a bouquet or cake - a woman can drink these drinks with colleagues or at home with her loved ones. Usually, each includes several tastes that can appeal to any person.
- Muffins or muffins. Go to the choice of a gastronomic gift with imagination, give up the annoying cakes. Many private pastry shops offer beautifully packaged cupcakes or muffins, which the teacher can enjoy at lunchtime while the children are sleeping.
- Always relevant also cheese basket and fruit and berry bouquets.
From non-food gifts, you can consider several options.
- Clock. This is not only a useful product, but also a stylish decoration that makes the image of a woman complete and harmonious. Pick up for the tutor chronometers with an elegant strap, do not forget to pack in a stylish box. Surely this gift will be glad to any woman.
- Decoration. If the gift is made immediately from the whole group, and all parents participate in collecting money for it, then you can choose an expensive piece of jewelry, for example, a bracelet or a chain. Women are always happy with new trinkets, rest assured - such a gift is unlikely to lie idle. But keep in mind that donating jewelry, even the most expensive, is not necessary - in this case, only gold items are allowed.
- Vase. A useful and practical gift will be a pot with a personalized engraving. Often there is a lack of a tabletop or floor vase in the houses, and it is usually a pity to buy it, so such a gift will become truly invaluable, just do not forget to give the woman a beautiful and expensive bouquet with him.
- Sconce or lamp. This thing is certainly useful to the teacher, if she has children or grandchildren, a good idea would be a lamp projecting the night sky, or a disco ball.
Some parents prefer to make presents on their own. Cosmetic sets, leather gloves, a fashionable umbrella, a stylish accessory for a mobile phone, a hair dryer, a jewelry box or a piece of household appliances will be good options here.
Homemade Gift Ideas
Thinking about what to present to your favorite teacher on his birthday, you can always try to involve your kids in creating a present. Together with children, you can make many interesting gifts with your own hands, for example:
- photo collage with touching greetings and warm words;
- cards made by parents together with the guys from the group;
- clay figurines and other homemade souvenirs - surely they will long remain in the memory of your teacher.
A good idea would be a pencil vase. Any child can cope with it, and if you insert paper flowers with photos of pupils into it, you will get a very sweet and touching gift for a long memory, and the brightest and most beautiful vase will decorate the group’s room for a long time.
Can make a spectacular panel, and to create a beautiful thing, it is not necessary to be a sculptor or an artist. The panel can be made from ordinary cereals, thick threads, colored ribbons, coffee beans and other scrap materials.
Be sure, children will take part in making crafts with great pleasure - such a picture will turn out not just beautiful, but also filled with emotions, charged with a particle of the soul, therefore, surely it will cause only the most light and kind feelings in the teacher.

What to choose for the soul?
The work of an educator is very difficult - such a person is responsible for the life, mental and moral development of a large number of children at once. This is a nervous and exciting activity that requires considerable mental strength. That is why The teacher will surely like a gift that will help her relax and take care of herself a little.
Not everyone is pleased with the standard perfume sets with shampoos and other accessories for the bath, shower and bath. After all, you can not know for sure what flavors she likes, besides it is too beaten.
However, a gift for body and soul can be done: Give her a certificate in a famous cosmetic boutique. The age of a woman doesn’t play any role at all - having such a coupon, anyone can choose something necessary for themselves!
The original gift will be a certificate in a spa or a beauty salon. After a tedious and hard work with other people's children, it will surely be very pleasant for any woman to receive in her entrance relaxing massage in combination with a complex of care procedures.
Cheap and memorable options
Unfortunately, finances do not always allow you to buy expensive gifts for your caregiver, but this is not a reason to be upset. There are a lot of budget, but at the same time necessary and pleasant gifts that can be useful to the birthday girl and cause her the most positive emotions.
It would seem that a notebook or diary is the most common gift, but the teacher constantly notes something, leaves notes, keeps lists, so as not to lose sight of any detail in the life of the group. And to make such entries in a stylish expensive notebook will be a joy. If possible, present her Handmade notebook - surely it will become a permanent “guest” on the teacher’s table.
It has long been said that the best gift is a book. If you know what genre of literature your teacher likes, what authors prefer, feel free to give her prose or poetry, you can even get your collected works together with other parents.
But books on pedagogy and child psychology are not worth giving - the teacher can take this as a hint of his own incompetence.
A real memento will be vintage photo album. Order it to the master, pick up only the warmest and kindest photos - the teacher will be very pleased to flip through him and remember her wonderful group.
At the birthday of a good teacher can be presented family tree. After all, a group is a real family, you can make a tree with your own hands or purchase one, and any woman will be pleasantly impressed by such a gift.
A nice and inexpensive gift is a hand painted mug with a plate. All you need is to purchase a set of dishes and paint for painting on glass, as well as contours and stencils.
There is an opinion that money is the best gift. However, this question is purely individual, because each parent must decide it based on their own knowledge of the teacher. But it would be better if such an option would be considered rather as a backup, but not the main one.
Money is faceless, so if you want to leave a truly good memory of yourself, then it is better to pick something more creative. In addition, such an offering is often perceived as a bribe, and such problems are not needed by you or her.
It is necessary to approach the choice of a gift deliberately - it will be completely superfluous to inquire in advance from another caregiver or nurse, what a woman dreams of and what she waits for. And of course, remember that any educator is first and foremost a person, and only then a teacher, therefore, when presenting your gift, do not be stingy with warm words - it will be easy for you, and the birthday girl will be infinitely pleased.
The original cake is the perfect addition to any gift. Ideas for decorating sweet presentation for the teacher are presented in the following video.
