[quote=Anonymous]If you get them something, try to gravitate towards a store that isn't load every inch of it's shelves with chinese garbage.  In your effort to do good for your kid, and the people that teach him/her, you'll be arming a country with which your kids may one day have to reckon.

I recommend:
-Barnes and Noble
-Starbucks/Caribou Coffee
-Amazon
-Giant Food/Safeway

I recommend avoiding:
-WalMart
-Target
-etc

At least with the former, there is a reasonable chance that whatever the teacher buys it will not be from a country that's on a crash course with meeting our precious children on the battlefield in 10-20 years.

By the way - a little off topic, but the same goes for your kids this christmas/hannukah.  Skip the plastic garbage, and aim for US made (or at least ally-made - Taiwan, S. Korea, Germany, Japan, Phillipines, Mexico, etc) things -

-Texas Jeans
-made in usa forever dot com (research it, and buy it on Amazon if it's cheaper)
-megablocks instead of legos, etc.
