Educators are very important people in the life of your child and your family. And so we are not only relatives and friends, but also teachers. What to present to those who practically every day sow the reasonable, kind and eternal in school classes and kindergarten groups? Tatyana Nikolskaya, administrator of the Nash Lad Opportunity Center, a mother of two sons, who has been choosing gifts for teachers in kindergarten and school for more than 20 years, shares her opinion.

Holiday rules: how to choose and give

Buy as a class or group, not personally from your family. In the schools where my children studied, it was not customary to give gifts "from oneself." One who taught my son said: “I feel uncomfortable accepting gifts from my parents. They seem to oblige me to single out someone's children, but my credo is to treat everyone equally. The child is studying well - I am glad and will begin to praise him, if he falls behind - I will push him, and their parents should not influence my attitude towards children. And I agree with her.

Gifts from specific families, and not from the whole class, put the teacher in an awkward position, oblige him to return the courtesy. Which one? The teacher can only answer with an assessment. And if he begins to undeservedly single out one student, other children - after all, they notice everything! - they will conclude: "Petrov gave a gift, so he is overestimated." There is nothing good in this.

But I won't claim that all teachers in the world think the same way. It all depends on the teacher himself and his team; in some schools, gifts from individual families are taken calmly.

Another situation is if you, as a mother, have some kind of friendly relationship with a teacher. For example, on a voluntary basis, I help a literature teacher who leads the school. We just communicate with her, talk on a variety of topics, not as a teacher and mother of a student. And if I give her gifts, then not as a teacher of my son, but as a person who is very nice to me personally. I know that my gift will not embarrass her in any way, will not offend her.

The gift should not be too cheap. Do not buy a trinket or an inexpensive souvenir. I think that in Moscow for 1000-2000 rubles you can find a decent option for a class teacher, and for a smaller amount - for subject teachers. After all, it will be a gift from the whole class, in which there are 20-30 people, and each family will need to donate no more than 100 rubles.

Very expensive, of course, it also should not be. I know cases when the teacher received from the class, or rather, from the parents, a new smartphone. In my opinion, this is overkill.

Present beautifully. Whatever you choose as a gift, think about beautiful packaging. And don't just let it be the design paper that your purchase is wrapped in for a fee at any mall, or a shiny package. Now there are a lot of opportunities to come up with and make impressive packaging yourself, which will become part of the gift. At your service the Internet and shops for creativity. It will be great if you can not only wrap a gift beautifully, but also make a postcard.

Give in a festive setting. While the children are still small and cannot come up with and deliver a congratulatory speech on their own, give a gift along with other parents. And not in a private setting, but in the classroom before the lesson, in the presence of children, inviting them to join in the congratulations.

What gift to choose

Tea, coffee and sweets

These gifts seem banal, but they are always the right things. The main thing that I would recommend here is not to buy special "New Year's" packages of ordinary cheap tea or coffee. In fact, this is the simplest and not always high-quality tea, just beautifully designed. The teacher will be pleased with the packaging, but the taste is unlikely. It should be tea and coffee, which you yourself would treat dear guests.

And sweets in New Year's boxes, on the contrary, can be very good. Choose the products that you yourself have tried and at the same time were satisfied. The teacher will be pleased that you gave him the most delicious sweets.

In my experience, "edible" gifts most often remain at school: teachers drink tea after school or. In my opinion, a good reason to take the selection of a gift seriously.

Christmas decorations for home

Once, my other parents and I gave Christmas decorations - three New Year's balls. These were not ordinary plain factory balls, but hand-painted items. Such a gift is really able to decorate the house and please its owner. But the symbol of the year - ceramic, glass, wooden, any kind of dog, it seems to me, is a bad option. Unless the teacher collects animal figurines.

Certificates for cosmetics and perfumery stores

Shower gel, perfume, mascara - it's very easy to make mistakes with such gifts, plus they are very personal. It is better to present a certificate from the class for the collected amount to a cosmetic store: it will definitely come in handy. And then the teacher herself will buy the perfume or cream that she needs. Yes, she will have to pay extra from her own money - after all, we are not talking about gift cards for 5,000 rubles or more. But at least she'll choose what she wants.

In addition, such a gift is much more pleasant than the amount of money to which it is equivalent. After all, some parents think that money in an envelope is a normal option. In my opinion, it humiliates the teacher.

Theater or concert tickets

Many teachers love performances and live music, but they cannot always afford it. Ask the children to carefully find out what the teacher likes and what evening he has free. Do not buy tickets without understanding the tastes and abilities of the teacher.

It happened like this: you ask the teacher if he watched "", he would like to go along with our family and other parents. And if the teacher is interested, then we agreed that I would buy tickets for everyone, and simply gave this opportunity to go to the theater.

Our teacher had already watched "Eugene Onegin" on stage 10 times, but she was still glad to go along with everyone - just for the sake of communication.

Controversial Gifts

Vase. This thing should correspond to the tastes of the teacher and the interior of his house. If you trust your own sense of beauty, when choosing a vase, ask yourself: “Would I like to see this thing in my house? Wouldn't it be nice to put flowers in it? Once I liked the option that I chose for the teacher so much that I bought the same vase for myself.

Book. As with the vase, this is an individual gift. You should know what the teacher likes to read and whether he likes to read at all, and what other books he does not have.

Organizer. This thing is useful in itself. But not every teacher uses it. And maybe he already has an organizer for next year. What will he do with a few dated diaries?

In general, any teacher can always be asked what he likes, what he likes. This will help you choose a special gift for him based on the material resources of his parents.

The holiday is approaching. Everything around - mailing lists, shop windows, advertising on TV - suggests that the chimes are about to strike, and the New Year 2018 will come into its own. And that means it's time to stock up on gifts for the upcoming celebration. As you know, in addition to relatives and friends, it is customary to congratulate teachers on this holiday. And parents always wonder what to present to teachers for the New Year. So, scroll down and choose how to please teachers this year! We have collected for you the most interesting and relevant gifts for the upcoming Year of the Yellow Dog.

Traditional gifts for teachers

There is a whole category of gifts that in any case would be appropriate to give a teacher. For example, stationery and office supplies, goods for professional activities, household appliances. The most common "win-win" gifts for teachers:

After that, the basket is filled with sweets, souvenirs to your taste. You can also decorate this whole composition with gift ribbons or artificial snow.

It is worth giving alcohol to a teacher for the New Year only if you are sure that such a gift would be appropriate. In this case, you can present him with a bottle of good champagne or cognac.

Symbolic gifts in the year of the White Rat

Not all teachers like it when they are given gifts in the form of a symbol of the year on New Year's Eve, especially when a teacher teaches in several classes, he can have a whole collection of such figures. But still, it is worth presenting the teacher with a nice little souvenir with a rat - the patroness of 2020. For example:

• Fridge magnet. As an addition to a gift, it will be quite appropriate.
• Christmas tree toy in the form of a symbol of the year - a rat or with its image. You can find a handmade Christmas toy or a whole set of balls in a beautiful package. Every year the teacher will remember you by decorating the Christmas tree.
• Mug with the symbol of the year.
• A small figurine (clay, porcelain, wooden, Gzhel or Khokhloma painting) or even a soft toy.
• Chocolate figurine.

Sets of dishes are given to teachers very often, and therefore it is better to discuss such a gift with the teacher himself in advance, otherwise you can give him another box that will take up space in the closet.

DIY gifts

Any teacher will tell you that the most memorable are the gifts that the students made on their own, put a piece of their soul into them. It is these things that teachers keep as a memory of their pupils. You can attach a little imagination and give the teacher, for example:
