Kind of early....but need some help with teacher gifts

It's kind of funny that I'm asking for some ideas since I'm a teacher myself....but I'm really at a loss.

Wanted to get a jump start for the end of the year gifts.

For the holidays I did blockbuster gift cards with popcorn, etc.

I have 3 teachers, 2 dance teachers and 2 coaches....any new ideas?

Gift cards to Starbucks or B&N are always appreciated.

I've gotten beach bags with summer stuff in them and thought was a cute gift.

coffee, books.

I'm a teacher and I love getting gift cards. Anywhere is great Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, Barnes and Nobles, Borders.
If you want to put more work into it you can always get a cute mug and put the gift card in that with some candy or something.

I would think a gift card of any kind would be welcome.

You may want to post this on the "teachers" board too, you could probably get some good feedback there.

For me again any kind of gift card except STARBUCKS is great. My students know I despise coffee, but if I get them I just give them to my niece. I have to say I am just more touched that someone thought of me.

I am getting this for my son's preschool teachers and my Class moms. I'm going to use Just Embroidered Totes who is a vendor on here. I bought Beach towels from BJ's. 2 for 14.99. They are really a nice quality too!

Gift cards are great. I also got a gift tower from Harry and David, one students gave me good quality skin care products. I've also gotten plants.
