When is Teacher Appreciation Day and what should I give as a gift?
I don't know when Educator's Day is in 2026 or what's an appropriate gift for a kindergarten teacher. I need to prepare something ahead of time, or I'll forget.

Teacher Appreciation Day is celebrated on September 27th - by the way, it's today! If you're in a rush, you can find something last-minute, but it's better to do it within the next day or two. Bouquets, boxes of chocolates, nice notepads, or mugs with cute prints are always a hit - basically, anything practical and nice-looking. If several parents are chipping in together, you can go for something more substantial like a good thermos or a home set.
# Kindergarten Teacher Day in Russia is celebrated on September 27 - actually today, by the way. It's not a huge holiday, but teachers appreciate it. In our family, it's always been a small concern - you need to come up with something, but not something too weird or too expensive.
From tried-and-true options: flowers (a bouquet of asters or roses - a classic), a box of good chocolates or cookies, a plant for the classroom, premium-quality tea. If there are several kids in the group, you can pool money with other parents for something more substantial - a nice robe, a thermos, a desk lamp. Some people give developmental books for working with children, but you need to get a feel for the person's taste here.
The main thing is to avoid anything too personal (jewelry, cosmetics, perfume) and gifts worth thousands, so you don't make anyone uncomfortable. Teachers are usually just happy to be thought of. You can include a card from the child - that always touches their hearts.
