last day gifts

[purlease]

DD finishing at nursery on Friday after being there 2 years. Any suggestions for leaving gifts. They have been great, beyond what job requires.

I bought the staff a magazine subscription for a year, then a small toy for each "room" (ie different age group of kids)

We brought plain mugs and DS decorated one each for his teachers when he left Pre-School. I think they were quite pleased to get something actually from him.

We like things that looks like you make an effort, not just a bottle of wine, especially since some of is don't drink.

Parents have given me jewellery, home made soaps, mugs, and many other things, it's nice to know we are appreciated.

And unless you bought things when your child left a room, a would also buy them something.

Parents have donated money to the nursery, which we bought toys with and someone bought a coffee machine that no one uses.

Does any of that help

That's great. Particulary good to hear from someone actually working in a nursery.
