Auston Grove Residents are getting ready for the summer, and so are our kid’s teachers! If you are looking for a great and unique way to say “thank you” to your child’s teacher this summer, here is a list of great ideas!

Give your favorite teacher a night (or morning) off - With a fun basket full of foodstuffs that will minimize cooking for at least one meal your child’s teacher can take a break from cooking. From a pasta dinner, a jar of gourmet sauce, pasta, breadsticks and a bottle of wine; or a pancake breakfast complete with mix, syrup, pre-wrapped sausage, juice and some fruit; this is a fun gift to put together and it will be greatly appreciated.

Best bookmark – have your child make a beautiful bookmark with their class photo affixed to the top. Have them add a few of their favorite titles, or the titles of some of their favorite books that were read in class. Add to it a gift certificate to a neighborhood bookstore and this gift is sure to please.

Learning gift basket - Many teachers pay for their own classroom supplies. Put together a basket of markers and crayons or craft items. You can either pack a basket full of supplies or you can make a small basket and add to it a gift certificate to an area learning supply or stationery store.

Movie night – There is plenty to do in Raleigh, but a great gift would be to send your teacher to the movies with a marvelous movie gift to Raleighwood cinema and grill. Give your favorite teacher a gift to the highest rated movie theatre in Raleigh, and it will be fun and different than regular movie passes. Not only can they see a movie, but they can grab a bite to eat too. Pool your resources with some friend’s parents, this is a fun gift. If you‘d like, give this gift with a jumbo pack of Dots candy.
