Daycare Gift Questions

I figured I'm going to get a nice gift for Mason's two main teachers. Probablly a gift card to Target and a little something on the side... maybe those soft slipper socks since you can't wear shoes in the infant room. Chat Icon
For the floating assist teachers I'm going to get a big tray of cookies or something (the director is the one who suggested it b/c she said there are so much that are in and out there's no need to spend a fortune)... this is why I love this school and the Director and owner.

Anyway... what do I get the Director and owner? Also, do I sign the cards for the teachers from Mason or do I put me, DH and Mason?
TIA

I think I am doing Visa cards from Commerce, I mean TD bank! And a bottle of wine or champagne for the 3 main teachers in Ann's room. And probably something edible for the assistants to enjoy.

Never occurred to me to get gifts for the Director (or the owner who I've never met) and I probably won't.


ETA: I'm thinking I will have Ann "make" cards for each of them since they always have the room doing crafts, I thought it would be nice for them to be the recipient!

Re: Daycare Gift Questions

Thanks! I think that's cute, but the thing is... Mason is 6 months so he can't really make a card. LOL!

If you never met the owner or director then there's no point in getting them a gift.
I love the director and owner at DS school. They're wonderful. I thought maybe something edible for them too. Not sure

DS makes stuff for us all the time at daycare. We've gotten a ghost card using his footprints and he has painted stuff for us. I'm not sure what kind of paint they get, but they put the babies in a t-shirt or just a diaper in the highchair and let them paint pictures.

You could also do something edible.

Good idea... I do get a lot of art projects with hand or foot prints

Ann's only five months!! But they do crafts all the time with her hand traced or handprints/footprints! Chat Icon


ETA: They use "tempera paints" at Ann's daycare - I asked! Chat Icon
