Ideas For Making Handmade Gifts On Teachers Day

Share This:


On this Teachers’ Day, I would like to share a memory with you.

I vividly remember Teachers’ Day of 2005 when I was in class 5. I had given each of my teachers a piece of paper with a few lines written about them above some scribbles. Now, the reason I remember this decade-old day and the Teacher’s Day gift is very close to my heart.

While my classmates gave the teachers fancy cards with glitter and gold, it was my handwritten piece of paper that found its place in our school magazine.

You must be wondering why I told you this. The reason is quite simple. If your child is asking you to buy gifts for his/her teacher, say NO. Instead, encourage him/her to make one.

From a simple card colored with crayons to a handmade photo frame, everything that your child makes with his/her own hands becomes priceless for the teachers in front of the expensive gifts that are picked up from the gift shop.

Perfect handmade Teachers Day Gift Ideas

1. Greetings Cards

Things you will need: A4 sheet, pencil, eraser, ruler, and colors.

Tell your child to pour his creativity on the blank A4 sheet and pen down his/her feelings for the teachers. Do not tell him/her what to draw. Let their imagination flow as they produce something that would be prized by all the teachers.


2. Glass Paintings

Things you will need: A round-edged piece of glass, glass-painting colors.

Instead of a handmade card, you could opt for a handmade glass painting. Creative and colorful, glass paintings are an ideal gift for teachers who teach us to look at the brighter side of life.


3. A Bottled Plant
