Don’t like shopping because of how crowded the stores can be (especially during the holiday season)? I feel you!
I am quick to hop on Google to find thoughtful and personalized gifts I can send online!
Here are some great ideas for virtual gifts to give!
Use a site such as Hallmark eCard to make personalized notes that you can send with the eGift Card!
Here are some ideas of you can include in the card if you/your student is looking for teacher gift ideas:
- Why the student is thankful for the teacher(s). This could be a list of things or one specific thing.
- Favorite memory
- Positive things about the teacher
- How the teacher has helped the student/you.
If you are a family member or friend of a teacher, a personalized e-Card or letter can still work by including things that celebrate, uplift or shows appreciation for your loved one!
Other websites you can use to create an eCard:
- Greetings Island
- CrossCards
- Punchbowl
- Blue Mountain
- JibJab (you can even make a Video eCard!)
One of the easiest online gifts that make perfect presents are e-gift cards. You can make this a special gift by getting an eGift card to a persons favorite food spot, streaming service, store, etc!
Some ideas for eGift Cards are:
- Music subscription to platforms such as Apple Music or Pandora.
- Digital Subscriptions to platforms such as Amazon Prime, Playstation, Newspapers like the New York Times, and more!
- Streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, Disney+.
- Online learning platform such as Masterclass.
- Food: favorite restaurant, eateries, grocery stores, etc.
- Major online retailers.
- Ebooks through Google Play or Kindle.
An amazing place to find a large volume of virtual gift ideas or personalized gifts is Etsy!
If you have an idea of what the recipient likes, then you can do a simple search and see what items come up.
Have your student create a video expressing their appreciation for their teacher(s).
The video can include:
- Why the student is thankful for the teacher(s).
- Favorite memory with the teacher
- Positive things about the teacher
- How the teacher has helped the student.
This also works great if you are a family member or friend. You can send a sweet message showing your appreciation for the special teacher in your life!
A great way to show your appreciation for the teachers in you and/or your student’s life is to provide them with resources that they can use in their classroom!
One way to gift free resources to your favorite teacher is purchasing a gift card for Teachers Pay Teachers, an online marketplace where teachers can purchase lesson plans, games, activities and more!
