Have you been thinking about an end of the year teacher gift?? Well I have and I am always trying to figure out what to do. Well, when Emmah was in Preschool I found this GREAT idea to make an alphabet basket. What you do it you hand out letters to each child in the class and buy a gift to represent each letter! I did it twice in preschool and then again in Kindergarten. Well Jake had a really small preschool class so I didn't even attempt, so I was super excited to give it a try this year! It is always so much fun to see what people come up with for each letter. Here is this years basket:
I am hoping to get a couple more uses out of this, because at any age it is fun to, you can even do it with gift cards alone!! Happy Summer to all you! I know we will be having a great time this summer!

I love this idea!
Love this idea! Wish I would have seen it before my classroom aide retired at the end of this year. It would have been perfect to have the kiddos each bring a small something for each letter of the alphabet for her!
Great idea Kate!
That is SUCH a fun idea!
As a teacher, I would love to get a gift like this! Great idea! How much money do you think you have into this project?
Anybody have an idea for "Q"?
Ear plugs for quiet?
Something Quilted!!
Would it be possible for you to post your list of what you included for each letter?
I
Would also like a list for each letter" get my creative juices flowing
Very cute! Wonder what to do in the case that someone doesn't bring their gift or can't afford a gift. Definitely want to try this sometime, though!
Quarters for Q
Planning this for next year... What would you suggest for Z?
Z - Little Debbie Zebra Cake snack cakes. Put a ribbon around the whole box.
Just gave your idea a shout out on my blog. Thanks for sharing your wonderful idea! http://missionarymail.blogspot.com/2013/09/back-to-school.html
Any chance you have the template for the letters you placed on each item? Also, Do you have a list of items you used?
I would also love the template for the letters? and a potential list of items you used?
I was wondering if I could also get a template for the letters and the list of what you did for each letter? My email address is shilton453@gmail.com if you could send it to me.
Hi Kate, I love this idea. I think it is awesome! Is there a chance that you could send me a copy or link to your template and/or list of items that you used? I kind of figured out some of them by looking at the pictures, but a list of possible suggections to help out the other parents would be great. My email is jrgraham912@gmail.com.
Thank you, Janice
I love this idea... but how how did you get the gifts from the students to compile them all into one big basket?
