Tuesday of the first full week of May each year we celebrate the unofficial holiday "National Teachers Day". It was first started about 1944 and is now part on a larger "Teacher Appreciation Week" which is the first full week in May.
This year that week is May 2rd-6th, with National Teachers Day being Tuesday May 3rd.
Flowers are just coming into bloom in my yard, so in my family it is a tradition to go out to the garden and pick a few to take to school. One year when my oldest was still quite young I picked a Irises for him to take his teacher. He came in with a handful of dandelions and insisted that they were a much better gift. I love sending my boys to school with flowers, it is so cute! And don't forget piano, Sunday school, and any other teacher in your lives!
Also, just a reminder the end of the school year is only about a month from now, so it is a great time to start preparing end of the year teachers gifts and cards as well.
Still need to prep. for Mother's day? You can see my notes HERE
