The best gifts I ever received from my kids were either framed photos of the kids (usually picked out by them and personalized by them on back) or notepads/sticky notes with a note or drawing by the kids on the first page.  I always loved those the best!

I used to teach preschool and my favorite gifts were food because I love sweets.  One of my parents gave me a Swarovski necklace.  I never wore it because I don't wear jewelry.  I still have it though.

I agree that food is usually the best way to go. Who doesn't love brownies or cookies??

ooh yeah, you could make her a small basket
with the classic teacher-apple theme...

like an actual apple, apple pie scented candle,
little apple earrings. i've seen a lot of teacher
stuff like that at places like hallmark and it
wouldn't be too expensive if you're creative  :thumbsup:

your kid could make her a card and you could
attach it to the handle of the basket with some
alphabet ribbon (just make a trip to michaels ;D)
[ we all have a place in history. mine is in the clouds. ]

I always enjoyed getting a card with some momory of what helped the student most that year, or which activity they most enjoyed.  That way, when I look through the card again in years to come, I can always visualize how I might have helped.

I belive that plant with flower will b best, when u ask me first think of the teacher in mind. my kid's teacher she dress up well so, i can afford to give her a gud jewellery. but, u have to think her in mind n decide like, u shudnt give a person ornaments who doesnt like ornaments. or in general

food, 
card,
picture frame with ur kid and her with some words to explain how she means to ur kid.

HOPE this helps u

I would think that a photo of the child in a decorated (done by your kid of course) frame would be great. Now, I'd also probably look at hiding a miniature bottle of rum (how else can one person be so sane with so many Pre-K'ers) in the gift bag. :angel12:

((Just kidding on the rum thing!))
