Great Gifts for World Teachers Day on October 5th
I have been very lucky when it comes to my boys teachers. They have had the most amazing teachers in the world! Which is why every year I try to give back to them even if it’s just with a little. All of the teachers I know use their money to make their classrooms amazing learning centers for our children. That has to be hard since they don’t make much to begin with.
So whenever it’s a holiday and at the end of the year I always like to give them a gift card for themselves (coffee, retail store etc.) and something for their classrooms. Teachers work hard to give children a sound education and oftentimes do not receive the thanks they so deserve.
Here are great products to thank a teacher with something for them and something for their classroom on World Teacher Day! Which is on October 5th.

These fun Pete the Cat light filters help protect students from the harsh light of fluorescent lighting and are made out of fire-resistant material! They attach easily to the light fixtures using 6 sturdy, built-in magnets per panel. These are the perfect fit for any classroom, office or home!
Help teachers add a little color to their classroom and reduce fluorescent lighting glare and flicker with Pete the Cat! The star of the New York Times best-selling Pete the Cat book series really shines in this three-pack set of decorative light filters. Each panel features a unique, colorful Pete the Cat school scene. Available at Amazon.
Drink in the Box UNIQUE
This has got to be the cutest drink bottle I own. I love the uniqueness of it, I had never seen a box shape drink bottle before. I love that it has a straw and not just a hole to drink from. It seals well and doesn’t leak.
