When I was teaching school, kids loved to give a gift at Christmas time, and one of my favorites was a teacher mug that was a bit out of the ordinary.
Zazzle mugs are designed by individuals who have a different outlook than the corporate variety of mug designers. Come see what I have found for teacher mugs on Zazzle.
Maybe you'll find a teacher mug here that will be perfect for someone you know.

@MBC A teacher's job is harder than it looks from the outside. They deserve our thanks.
Yes, everyone should remember their teacher's with gifts, especially at Christmas or year end as a thank you for all they do.
It gets better at university level ;-) But little kids and their parents have a hard time. Another practice here is for teachers to invite their own students for private tutoring. There are ways to accept that if you think that maybe most students, too, aren't willing to learn more than the basics. Given how little motivated teachers are here in Romania, I'm surprised there are good teachers at all!
That doesn't seem right. Gifts are not supposed to supplement their income but are meant as tokens of appreciation.
I love teacher mugs. Unfortunately here in Romania parents have to buy teachers expensive gifts -- jewelry for instance. When I was growing up it was flowers and "small attentions." Times have changed. It's true that teachers get paid very little over here, but still.
@ologsinquito I'm glad you like them.
These are really cute, especially with school starting.
I'll bet you felt appreciated whenever you looked at it -- like getting a bouquet a day.
Teachers deserve mugs, hugs, and more. I used to be a literacy tutor for adults, and one of my students gave me a flower mug.
I agree, Dave. A mug may be a small gesture, but it's nice to be remembered by those you work for.
