    That is so sweet.
  • Thanks for this, I might get one of these, my little boy loves drawing and it would solve the problem of what to get for his teacher.

  • They have these on Amazon for £2.99 so more expensive if you want more than 1 but cheaper without delivery costs on its own,

  • do teachers not get paid enough. I personally don't agree with all this buying of presents for people who already earn a good wage, i thought there was a recession on and most of the the time it's parents trying to buy the best present for the teacher, i feel sorry for those who can't afford it!! :mad:

    Last year my son had two teachers and three carers (he's disabled) as well as a classroom assistant. It does get very expensive at Christmas and end of term but we are in a well off area and everyone buys for teachers. You feel uncomfortable not doing it despite me not working because I can't get childcare for him and spend most of my life going up to school to get him when he's ill. I just wish I had the money the other mums do. Ah well there's always good old MSE to help out with a bargain so I don't look cheap.
