Have read a few threads on here and everyone seems to automatically buy for them.

I'm a teacher and wish this trend hadn't started. I'd much rather anyone who really felt a strong urge to spend their money spent it on someone who needs it or bought a book for the classroom.
Get child to make a card and write something nice. (Having said that you realise why it's easier to shove a box of chocolates in than stand over child whilst they create something!)

Well at my ds's school you probably would be I'm afraid.

We usually make cards and I send a bottle of wine. I am happy to do it - their teachers are fabulous.

Didn't work for me blu, DS has been a donkey, a snowman and is now a reindeer. I made DS do brown for the donkey, but the reindeer costume is supplied.

Give a nice card instead

Now I'm really confused puddle - isn't a bottle of wine a present??
