Apple Gift Boxes and More – Frog Hollow Farm

As a parent, you appreciate your child’s teacher. Perhaps you’re in awe of how they engage a classroom of 25-plus students, or you noticed your child’s progress during the academic year, from picking up a new concept to their growing interest in an academic area. In all cases, you’d like to send this message – ideally with a teacher appreciation gift. Whether you’re exploring end-of-the-year gift ideas for teachers or an all-time token of gratitude, why not turn to a familiar source and symbol – apples?

Whether with an apple gift box or basket of seasonal fruit, think about the following:

What Makes a Good Teacher Appreciation Gift?

In searching for a gift basket for your child’s teacher, find a combination that:

• Expresses all you want to say, perhaps in a more personalized fashion.
• Provides a degree of practicality, either in their life or in the classroom.
• Avoids common, well-tread ideas, like coffee mugs or hand cream. Chances are, your child’s teacher has several of these already stored away at home.

When to Give a Teacher Appreciation Gift

Ultimately, this comes down to your school. Some districts restrict this to a teacher appreciation week, so look up these dates ahead of time and any conditions you need to keep in mind. Others relegate this period strictly to the end of the year or around the holiday season.

These factors, too, will affect which fruits are in season. If, for example, you can’t give an apple fruit basket, consider something else that’s in season or a subscription service providing fresh fruit to the classroom for snack time.

Gift Ideas for Teacher Appreciation Week

In putting together a gift basket for your child’s teacher:

• Start with a note: Think about what you want to say and consider getting your child or other parents involved to make this more personal. Let them know that you recognize and appreciate their efforts.
• Consider including a gift card: A staple of many teacher appreciation gift roundups, gift cards allow for versatility – including the type of fruit they might want to select.
• Think about including something practical: Especially if you’re building your own apple fruit basket, pair the seasonal fruit with other supplies your child’s teacher will be able to use during this or the next school year. Even seemingly mundane items, including paper, notebooks, pencils and erasers, ensure students have what they need to learn and complete assignments.
• Look for a high-quality fruit: What do the apples themselves communicate? Send a gift built around fresh, crisp apples that your child’s teacher or their classmates can enjoy during snack or lunchtime. Seek out something fresh, juicy and sweet that can be eaten as is or cut up for a salad, to have with cheese or honey or to bake.
