It is not easy to think of the right gift to give a teacher.  Does she/he really need another mug?  Is a gift certificate to impersonal?  Will her flowers last until the end of the day when she heads home?  Is a box of chocolate going to melt in his car on the way home?  

Even if you do have a gift certificate or something else for your child's teacher, a sweet note and something homemade that your child can do with you is much appreciated.

This project takes only 10-15 minutes (no joke) and can make enough gifts for teachers, specialists, the nurse, and the piano teacher.  

Freezer jam is delicious, your child can help with every step of the jam making and it does not involve any cooking.

Enjoy and here's to a happy, healthy and relaxing summer for everyone.
