Wednesday 2nd September is Early Childhood Educator Day! A great opportunity to say “thank you” to those dedicated, passionate & valuable educators…. those educators who make a difference to the development & well-being of young children!
Do you need some ideas? Here are a few of my faves!*************************************************************
Chocolates!
Chocolates are always a winner… but they need to be good quality 😉 Also need to consider if they are suitable for those with allergies or those who are health conscious!
For those health conscious / sugar free educators
There are some sugar, gluten & dairy free cakes these days that taste amazing.. just like this cacao mint slice 😉
Delicious Food Platter!
I love this idea as it can suit all tastes… arrange a beautiful lunch platter for the day with healthy options and treats!
Wine!
Yes please! If you know your educator’s preferences… a lovely bottle of wine / champagne is a great gift!
Re-usable Coffee Cups
To support sustainable practices & caffeine habits a re-usable coffee cup is a great idea… maybe even arrange for your local coffee van to visit and shout a round of coffees! For those who know me well…. yes please… as it will go well with my cacao mint slice 😉
Time in Lieu
If your team isn’t too large you could schedule TIL and allow each educator to have a half day across the week
Brunch it up!
Shout the team out for brunch on a Saturday morning… always a great team bonding experience as well!
Gift Voucher
Gift vouchers are great as you can choose your own gift. Myer/Coles, Woolworths and ITunes gift cards I find are great as they offer varied store options
Good old fashioned Flowers!
You really cannot go wrong… who doesn’t love receiving a beautiful bunch of flowers?
Stationary!
I love stationary, especially nice pens… maybe some of your educators would love some personal stationary items?Personalised Thank You note!
No matter what the gift… i think a personalised thank you note makes any gift special!
