[quote=Anonymous]To the OP,

The first year of preschool (my child went for half day - 3 hours), we followed whatever the school said - flowers one day, spa items one day, cards one day etc. We did not do gift cards for the movie day as well as the card day. We did just one gift card of $20 for the whole week for all 3 teachers in class, but did the other little things. My kids enjoyed giving the flower, candy, lip balm.

The gift card amount could be whatever you can afford. My cousin works at a preschool (a pretty expensive one at that - $25K a year for whole day) and she said that 2 parents out of 8 gave her something. Which is sad considering their children spend the whole day with these teachers. She was very appreciative of the 2 lotion sets and the one gift card 3 parents gave her. So anything you give would be appreciated since most parents do not even care.

We also did $10-$15 gift cards for every specials teacher for my preschooler, but it added up quickly, so we skipped the gift cards and gave some small gift to the specials teachers the following year.

Now that we are in public school, we will be giving small gifts to all the specials teachers and big gifts to the class teacher.
