[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The director doesn't expect gifts (at least ours don't). We have the same thing with floaters and whatnot at our school. I just ask the director for the names of the teachers in each of my kid's room and for the spelling of each. Then I don't have to guess which ones I should give gifts to. If my kid transitioned between rooms, I give to the teachers in both rooms. I give them our holiday card because I think they'd like a nice picture of the kids. I include a nice note about how I appreciate all their hard work and try to include something personal about each one (Layra loves how you sing songs every morning). I include a $10-20 Target gift card, depending on my budget for the year and how many teachers I have to cover. I also send in some sort of baked goods for each room. Label if there's nuts b/c they can't eat it around the kids if there is. I don't do the visa/amex gift cards b/c they have a service charge. Target is everywhere around here, so they can always get there and find something to buy there. My one SIL is a daycare director and the other SIL is a preschool teacher (in the burbs). They say what I do is generous, but within the range of normal.[/quote] PP here. If your budget only allows a nice note and a picture of your kid, they'll understand and appreciate what you can do.[/quote]
