Not just salads: what teachers really want to receive on their special day
The main thing is attention, not the budget
Teachers admit that the most touching gifts are often completely free. A drawing, a card, a poem or a video greeting — these gestures are valued much higher than material presents.
One teacher recalls how a student, having forgotten about the celebration, gave him his own lunch — a container with salad. "It was the most sincere gift of my life — the child gave what he had with him."
Gifts from the heart vs. practical presents
Experts in education highlight two successful directions for choosing a gift:
Creative and personal
- Drawings and comics from students
- Handmade cards and crafts
- Video greetings
- Poems and thank-you letters
Practical and useful
- High-quality stationery
- Organizers and document folders
- Digital photo frame
- Portable speaker
- Smart alarm clock
- Humidifier
What not to give
Experts are unanimous on the list of poor gift choices:
- Alcoholic beverages
- Money
- Cosmetics and perfumes
- Clothing and accessories
- Overly personal items
Ideas for inspiration
If you want to go beyond standard choices:
- Gift certificate for an online course
- Tickets to the theater or an exhibition
- Tea ceremony set
- Desk lamp
- Annual subscription to audiobooks
- Charitable donation made in the teacher's name
- "Memory box" with notes from students
The main secret of the perfect gift is simple: it should show that you appreciate the teacher's work and see them not just as a professional, but as an interesting person. And sometimes even the humblest, sincerest gesture means more than an expensive present, advises the portal inkazan.ru.
