Show A Teacher Your Appreciation with Elementary Box

My son has an awesome teacher, and like most parents, I want to give her something to show my appreciation for her unending hard work, patience, and love she’s shown the children throughout this year. There are lots of teacher gifts out there, and I’ve seen everything from dollar store items to items that cost hundreds of dollars, but I wanted to get something for my son’s teacher that was useful, personable, and not going to end up on the yard sale table this summer with the 25 “World’s Best Teacher” coffee mugs she’s sure to receive at the end of the school year.

In my search to find something different, I came across Elementary Box. Elementary box is another subscription service, and each month, you get a box with a bunch of goodies in it delivered straight to your door. This one is specifically geared toward educators, so it makes a great gift for a favorite teacher or homeschooling mom.

One of the coolest things about the box is that there is a little something for everyone in there – teaching resources, incentives for students, and something handcrafted for the teacher! The good people at Elementary Box try hard to make the boxes match up with the school year as well – the Back to School themed box comes in August, the End of Year box in June, and the July box is themed mostly toward teacher relaxation! The company has really put some thought into these boxes.

Even more awesome than that is that the boxes are geared to a specific grade level. A Kindergarten teacher won’t receive the same contents of a box as a fifth grade teacher. I’ve never seen a subscription service more customized than this. The only thing better would be if you could choose your contents monthly, which unfortunately they don’t do. (If anyone finds a subscription box that does that, please let me know!)

You can gift a subscription, obviously, like I did, and then the teacher will remember you for the entire year. (Bonus points for parents of children entering the same class a year later – the teacher will already love you!) You can choose from the month to month subscription, the 3 month term, or the 6 month term.

I can think of few better gifts for any teacher in your life, whether it be the one in your child’s class, your sister the teacher, your mother the teacher, or even the Sunday School teacher. Teachers are so underappreciated and it’s about time that parents let them know how much they mean to us! This box is a great way to do that, at any time of the year.  For more information, visit: http://www.elementarybox.com/

      Hi Annie, Mary from ElementaryBox here! In order to give the gift of ElementaryBox, all you’ll need is your teacher’s email address.

      Here’s how our gifting option works: Go to elementarybox.com –> Give a Gift –> select 1 delivery, 3 deliveries, or 6 deliveries (Gift Subscriptions do not auto renew) –> Checkout and provide gift recipient’s name, email, a personalized gift message, and the date that you wish for us to send the gift email to the recipient.
