Birthday gift for teacher?
For my child's kindergarten teacher. I only want to spend about $10 - $20 on a gift because we've already donated a good chunck of change to contribute to the class gift. I figure teachers already get lots of things like coffee mugs, body lotion/bath sets, etc. Cna anyone give ideas on useful or interesting things a teacher might like as a birthday gift that aren't overly expensive?
Thanks in advance for all replies.
I'm a teacher, so is my husband. Those candles and coffee mugs, we've received so many we're starting to re-gift them. I know that's not nice to say, but I don't drink coffee, and I have chronic allergies (strong scents from candles make me sneeze) so what am I supposed to do?
Let me tell you the two best gifts we received:
*My husband drinks one can of Coke every day at lunch, and that one student noticed that, so he got him a Coke drinking glass in the classic shape. He uses it all the time.
*I talk all the time about CSI and Stra Trek in my Gr11 Physics class, so that girl found a fridge magnet that says "all I need to know in life I learned from Star Trek". That probably cost her $3.
All I'm saying is, try to go with what your teacher likes outside of school. Personalize your gift, he'll remember you even longer. That girl, even though she graduated four years ago, the magnet is still in my classroom, and I tell her story every chance I get.
And if you still don't know, go with chocolate 
That's always a winner (unless he has diabetes or something)
