It is a myth that teachers go home loaded. From a class of 25-30, a teacher might get something from 3-5 families…
Teachers don’t expect any gifts from families.
They appreciate if they are gifted something from a family.
Most of the teacher I know do gift children a holiday and end of year gift.
The holiday gift for both teachers and children are not associated with any Christian and/or Jewish traditions, unless the school has a religious affiliation and classify holidays with a religious name.

On Eid, I gifted my son’s teachers shawls as Eid gift. Three of them were Muslims and 1 Jew.

Appreciate your input Lusi.
My daughter used to go to a playgroup thing last year and I had no idea that the parents would be so generous with end-of-year presents for the teacher.But they were and I felt a lil bad for not getting her anything esp when the teacher gave a tiny gift to my daughter as well.
Since I am not sure what faith her teachers belong to & I dont even need to know that (the school has no religious affiliations either),so I just mentioned holiday gifts and not exactly Christmas gifts.Something more like a thanks,for the efforts they do or have done for making mine adjust to preschool (it hasn’t been easy..!!).
As of now I am thinking of crafting some cards with her and maybe some GCs to go with that.

Please, one of my co-teachers collected target gift cards for couple years (gifted from parents) and then bought herself snow pants. Snow pants are expensive and she was very thankful for all those gift cards.

Target GCs can never go wrong.If I was a teacher I wont be expecting anything obviously,but still would’ve loved a Target or Dunkin donuts GC…
