6. Handwashing Stamp

One gift that you might not have thought of is the Hand Washing Stamp which can be a great useful tool to show your appreciation. These stamps are perfect for grade school teachers as they come with a built-in lesson to teach kids proper hygiene and make sure they are washing their hands throughout the day. The stamps use child-safe ink, formulated for skin, and washes off after 6 to 10 washings, so if the teacher stamps the kid's hand at the beginning of the day they can know by the end of the day if they were washing their hands. These stamps are particularly meaningful in light of the pandemic and can be a huge help for teachers trying to return to the classroom safely.

The last gift on our list, the Fingerprint Flower Pot, is a fun little art project courtesy of Kristen from Little Mama Jama.

There are few things as sweet as a handmade gift from the kiddos!
