I am an ex teacher myself and love the idea and sentiments. Now, I'd like to ask your permission to adapt the idea a a gift to a group of nurses, therapists, and other staff members at the hospital rehab center where my sister is currently undergoing therapy for a mild stroke. She suffered the stroke a few weeks ago and is scheduled to be going home in about a week and a half. I live in CA and my sister is in Cleveland, OH. I would like to send the gifts to my sister, so she can give them to the staff, that have been so helpful to her, before she leaves the facility. She is the creative type and would certainly do something artistic and thoughtful for them if she were able. Will be waiting anxiously for your reply, and any other suggestions others might want to add. Thanks Again, Gwen I just stumbled on your “Pill Box” 7 days /week idea for teachers.

Thanks Stumbleupon for showing me the most depressing present anyone could ever receive. Does a teacher really need to be encouraged like a mentally challenged child? This is really, really sad.

Just to let everyone know what my granddaughter, Mackenzie, and I have planned for her 4 teachers this year. We have chosen a garden theme. On Monday, Mackenzie will take her teachers a bouquet in a watering can that I have painted with a saying, Teacher, Teacher, Children seeker, How does your classroom grow? With smiles and tears, Hugs and cheers, And the sweetest girls and boys we know. Tue., we have painted a small rock with the saying attached, A rock in our garden is tacky, but as a paper weight, it makes us happy. Wed. we have painted bugs, butterflies, etc... on wooden baskets.We are filling the baskets with garden supplies, such as, gloves, seeds, garden spade, and other garden things we have picked up. We are attaching sayings to some of the item, like, on the spade, I did you, on the seeds, teachers plant seeds of knowledge to help our children learn and grow, etc... Thur. we have painted a 6" flower pot, included a plastic ziploc bag of potting soil and forget-me-knot flower seeds or flower along with saying, Forget me knot and I will forget you knot. Fri. we had all the kids sign a 11 X 14 mat. We are framing an appreciation certificate and will place the mat around the certificate. On the certifficate we will include something like, Thank you for sowing seeds of knowledge that helped us learn and grow this year. We think you Rock! Also, on Wed. we are taking Subway trays and a basket of mound candy bars with attached saying, our teachers deserve a mound of thanks. Teachers have a thankless job and deserve a pat on the back.
