My son is 3 and is in Mother's Day Out/ Pre-school at our church. His teacher is just awesome and he has learned so much! I want to do something special for her that's not too "teacher-y" because it's just pre-school, but something that lets her know she's appreciated. Ideas anyone? Christian theme would be even better!
Hi S.,
I just wrote an article about gifts for teachers and childcare providers.

I am giving homemade hotsauce with red and green chips to my daughter's preschool teachers. That way they are not getting more "stuff" and also they are not getting anymore sweets.
i used to work at a daycare and liked getting bath &body works stuff(lotions, candles, etc) or gift cards- on a smaller budget, a starbucks drink or gift card/picture frame... anything simple goes a long way bc we never really expected anything from parents :)
When I taught as a MNO teacher at my church two of my students that were twins brought me a "teacher" Christmas tree ornament. I have it hung in my tree today. Every year I am reminded and blessed to to have touched a young life.

I gave a daily planner to my son's teacher. She loved it! There's a huge variety out there so you can cater to her interests. Also consider stationary with her first initial. Bookstores have pretty stuff.
