Last Minute Teacher Gift Idea


I saw this idea at the start of the school year for teachers.
 ( I feel the need to say right here that I never get my son's teacher a gift at the beginning of the  year...nor do I ever plan to!) 
The box was filled with all kinds of school supplies. 
 I thought I would just fill my case with candy
we already had at the house.  I found the plastic case at Walmart for $2.00.










The plastic case also fits nicely in a backpack....so no worries
 about your gift getting squished
 on the way to school!
  If you have a daughter...you probably don't
know what I'm talking about!

Cute, cute! I do give a little something at the beginning of the year...Usually a bookmark or pack of notecards with their initial on it saying we are looking forward to a great year and excited to have her--definitely a $5 or less gift. As a teacher, it always touches me to get them or a note at the beginning of the year. This would be cute filled with so many goodies!!!! :)
