I'm a Teacher's Asisstant and I would like to give the teacher I help a gift. Sometimes, she rewards me with trail mix, I personally don't like trail mix but I gratefully accept it because it was nice of her anyways. Other times, she gives me chocolate or a lead pencil. She is a really nice teacher! Now, I want to give her a gift. But what should I get her? It needs to be something cheap because my parents don't like to waste a lot of money on unnessesary things. First, let me give you some details about her that might help.
1) She is young, I'm guessing around her early 30's or late 20's.
2) She likes to wear the latest clothes, she is somewhat of a fashionista.
3) She is the cheerful type.
4) I don't recall seeing her drink coffee.
5) She is Chinese.
6) She's pregnant.
I wanted to get her something for her baby, but I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. So any ideas? And remember something cheap please! What would a teacher like her want to have as a gift?
Answer
You could buy her a book with baby names, a huge Hershey's Kiss (what pregnant women doesn't love that), something from Bath and Body Works, a nice shirt that shows off her baby bump, a bouquet of flowers, a wallet or purse, a laser pointer, or write a poem of appreciation if you're a good writer. Well that's all I can think of, but be creative. Think of things you would like if you were pregnant or maybe things that you need if you are a teacher. Even the smallest things can show a great deal of appreciation.

I did an Asian theme per my daughter's request. I purchase decorative Chinese Take out containers from the craft store to put the guests gifts in, we had smaller take out containers (about 2x3 inch) for the favors of which we put chocolates in, we also had silk flowers with cherry blossoms. We did lots of color in red, blue, deep yellow, orange and green. I also purchased paper chinese lanterns in different colors (for a dollar a piece at the dollar store) and then glued baby animal figures on them. Of course we had lots of candles in multi-colored tea light holders.
For food, we did Cold Asian Chicken Salad, Pot Stickers, and Egg rolls and cold broccoli salad. We also had Cheese Cake bites for desert in stead of Cake (my daughter isn't much of a cake person)
We also purchased at the grocery store Fortune Cookies (really inexpensive).
For games we played "Guess the Baby Animal and Baby Bingo" of which we found for free online! Woohoo!
We also did "guess the belly size".
It was very nice and we had all the food on a buffet table fully prepared before anyone got there so we could enjoy our guests. You can also prepare hot tea chinese style.
You can use bamboo as a decoration too- placemats at the dollar store were 4 for a dollar.
Additional Info: I almost forgot! I bought a photo album for 5x7 photos and cut all of the plastic protectors off each page (easy- one snip and they slide off) and then I decorated each page. I create a Guest Book and had each guest write a thought on their page and sign it. I took pictures during the shower and then put them in the remaining pages of her album. Great Keepsake!
Have fun!
