Its that time of the year again where you might start thinking of organising a little present to say thank you to your child’s teacher!
Instead of the usual pens & notebooks, chocolate or even the very popular personalised ‘Mr. Smith No 1 Teacher’ mug (which you might spot in a charity shop near you eventually) how about a very simple but fun personalised bottle label which can be stuck on any bottle of wine? Its simple and easy and doesn’t take up a lot of your time to create but it’s still very thoughtful!
For as little as £3 you can get personalised wine bottle labels (which you can purchase from ebay or even Amazon) with a picture of your child and a text saying: “Our child might be the reason you drink so here’s a bottle on us!” or a similar text (there are also options to purchase a label without a picture) which we guarantee you will make any teacher smile!
Pop it into a bottle gift bag and let the children write a card with some nice words of thank you’s to their teacher and voila – the easiest teacher gift present ever is all done and ready to be presented to the teacher on the last day of term!
For the TA’s in school I found this great quote “It takes a big heart to help shape little minds.” which I think is very apt.
We have turned it into a downloadable A4 sheet for you which has 4 labels so it saves on paper when you print it.
Just stick it on a mini bottle of wine and pop it into a small gift bag or put a pretty bow around it instead!

We have been gifting bottles of wine with these personalised labels to our children’s teachers for at least 5 years now and their reaction every year is brilliant!
We think it’s such a simple, easy but very effective gift and it is always greatly received!
Alternatively another lovely present idea for teachers is to treat them to a gift card for their favourite coffee shop so they can fuel up before coming into school, you could even sent your child on a secret mission to ask her teacher what her favourite coffee shop is.
Lastly you could always have a joint money collection with the other parents in the class to purchase a gift card so the teachers can go and treat themselves to something they really like!
I personally think the One4all Gift cards are brilliant because you can use them in so many shops.
Also if you are doing a group gift you might also want to think about a group thank you card. Passing a card around for everyone to sign can be a logistical nightmare and very time consuming to organise. Instead why not give everyone in the class that is contributing a sticky note or plain sticker to write a small message of thanks onto. They can then all be stuck inside one group card for the teacher to enjoy reading.
