What's an appropriate thank you gift for a teacher?

Teachers' real favorites: gift cards, quality treats, practical classroom upgrades, and heartfelt notes. Skip the mug — they have seventeen.

How much should I spend on a thank you gift?

$10-30 fits most gestures of gratitude; bigger favors (a week of pet-sitting, major help) warrant $30-60. The note you attach does half the work.

When is a thank you gift appropriate?

After hospitality, favors, mentorship, end of school year, or any moment someone went out of their way. Sooner is better — gratitude has a freshness date.
