So giving a Teacher a gift to say THANK YOU for helping my child learn to read, etc...... Is only a small thing. I have friends who are still Teachers and they remember kids from years before, sometimes the kids return to say HI or let the Teacher know how much they helped, etc..... A gift is given from the HEART and most Teachers teach from the HEART too, they sure don't do it for the MONEY!!!!!!
