Tip #25: Write a Thank-You Note
In our latest poll about popular teacher gifts, almost 30 percent of our community said thank-you notes were their favorite. Teachers pull out these notes for encouragement on tough days, and they save them long after the child has left the classroom. As one community member said, "Letters don't expire, go rotten, or break. They are my favorite gift!" Another added, "Letters cost the family no money, trigger no allergies, coordinate with all home-decor schemes, and do not cause weight gain!"
