She’s in her fifties and very motherly. I don’t know what to get her. Any ideas? I was thinking about getting her a gift card to a local restaurant but what amount is appropriate? Should it be enough to cover dinner for two or a single entree, or somewhere in between?

Gift card would be nice but the amount to put on it would obviously depend on the restaurant. an enough for an entree for two would probably be appropriate. some other ideas include
Starbucks giftcard
Bath and Body Works gift card
School themed picture frame
Candle
Basket full of supplies (things like tape, sticky notes, stickers, things she would use often)
Bake some cookies and wrap them in decorative plastic

The card should be enough for a couple, if she’s married.
find out what her favorite candy or snack food is and find her a coffee mug and fill it with candy and put the gift card in it as well.

At the dollar store they have little soaps shaped like apples and they are totally cute! Colors: Red, purple, green.
Or you can get her a book to read to her kindergarden class. I highly siggest ‘The castle in the attic’ Its a very good book!
Good luck!

Probably a Gift Card. Depends on the place. If it’s an average restaurant(like Chili’s or Fridays) maybe just 30 bucks or so.

I would get her a few books for the classroom! Books add up quick, even from the book order forms from Scholastic! Every year there are new holiday books, pick a few and dedicate it to her. Have your child color some wrapping paper to wrap them in. PLEASE no teacher ornaments, mugs, or the like—she likely has WAY too many of them!

My son and I together made a beautiful sock snowman for his teacher one year. You take a men’s white tube sock, turn it inside out and fill about 1/3 of the way full with rice, tie it off with a rubberband that will be the snowman’s bottom half, next put in some polyfiber fill in for the snowman’s head and tie off with a rubberband, you will have the cuff part of the sock left, take that and fold it over the head of the snowman and that becomes the snowman’s hat like a tobogin. next, take a pipe cleaner, either a black, brown or white one looks best and wrap it around the snowman’s neck so that both sides are even, this will be the snowman’s arms, you can bend the ends to make it look like stick hands, make him a little scarf out of scrap material and tie around his neck, decorate the rest of the snoman with beads or other things. Give him buttons, eyes, nose, mouth etc., I even made a little vest for ours and I sewed on a pompom on top of his little hat. I also took some blush and put on the end of a q-tip and made the snowman little rosy cheeks. His teacher absolutely loved it. Teachers love things made from their students, but especially something as beautiful as these because they can use them as decorations every year. I wish I could show the picture we of ours but I don’t know how I could send it to you if you look at this site this one is similar to the one we made, only ours didn’t have arms like that, ours had the pipe cleaner arms. It looks like two pipe cleaners but it’s only one, similar to this one They are really inexpensive to make, so you could still put something with it if you wanted.
