Teacher Gift Ideas for 2024 - Gifts for Teachers

I’m back with one more gift guide for 2024! This one is for the teachers in your life – whether they’re friends, co-workers, or your own children’s teachers. I take this particular gift guide VERY seriously. Some of my favorite people are teachers, and I promise that they have enough candles and ornaments. Every year I try to come up with gifts that teachers will really appreciate receiving at a variety of price points. My number one recommendation is a gift card – Target, Amazon, and Coffee shops are always welcome. I say that knowing full well that I hate to give gift cards, but that doesn’t mean others don’t love to receive them. Here are my picks for teacher gifts this year (all links are affiliates).

Sol De Janeiro Jet Set – Skincare is THE thing this year, and every teacher deserves a little spa treatment. This would be an excellent set for nearly any female recipient on your list, teachers included. They might receive all kinds of lotions and soaps, but this is the one that will actually get used and not re-gifted.

Camouflage Lands End Tote – A Lands End Tote is always a good gift. You can absolutely count on the quality, and this large zip-top version can be used for everything from getting groceries to a weekend away. It’s perfect for hauling all the things to and from school.

Learn to Embroider Kit – Teachers love learning, and that includes learning how to do new things. This is a set that they can enjoy all winter long and display when they’re finished.

Pirani Tumbler – The are the favorite cups in our home. The stainless steel lidded tumblers can be used for hot and cold drinks and come with travel lids so that you can take it anywhere. They stack and can be stored so much easier than other tumblers that have a way of taking over the cupboard. I love this beach ombre, it would be great to look at while daydreaming during planning time.

Vera Bradley Fleece Throw – I don’t know what it is about Vera fleece blankets, but they are so much better than others. The quality is just excellent and they hold up so well. The designs are iconic and sure to be loved.

Brookstone Weighted Eye Mask – I’m not generally much of an eye mask person, the idea of having something strapped on my head while I’m sleeping just doesn’t do it for me, BUT this one has converted me. Something about the light weight really does help calm my mind so I can fall asleep. This would be excellent paired with the Sol De Janeiro set or on it’s own.

Rifle Paper Co. Book Club Mug – I would normally advise staying far away from mugs as teacher gifts, they all have plenty. This one is different. The book design is perfect for a teacher and the gold handle and rim really elevates the look. This is a mug that they’ll keep at school and use daily for sure.

HP Sprocket Bluetooth Mini Photo Printer – This would be such a fun tool for the classroom. Teachers can easily print any photo straight from their phone. These can be displayed, sent home, or used for projects or documentation. This is definitely a tool that would make life easier.

Rifle Paper Co. Zip Pouch Set – Designs from Rifle Paper Co. are timeless and iconic, which makes any of their products an excellent gift. There’s no such thing as too many zipper pouches, these are always appreciated. You could also fill them with fun supplies (Flair pens anyone???) or gift cards.

Happy Planner Notebook – The appeal of the Happy Planner system is that you can move around pages and easily add more, which makes this notebook perfect for any teacher. Notes can be taken out of the notebook and put back in, so it could be an excellent way to reuse sub plans and share information with team members.

Lego Botanicals Pretty Pink Flower Building Set – Lego Botanical sets have become super popular, and with good reason! This is a great way to enjoy Lego, and create something that you can display in your home. This would be a fun project for any teacher to work oon over winter break.

I have so many more ideas for teachers! Check out all of my previous teacher gift guides and favorite things lists:
