Christmas card or present for teachers

Hello,
I’m a mum of 34 months old girl, and she goes to private daycare nursery and some classes on weekdays.
I would like to know what to give to nursery teachers and the other teachers on the last day before Christmas.
Is this OK just give a Christmas card? Or add a small chocolate or something? Or should I add more proper present?
Since I’m expat, I totally have no idea what to give, it would be very appreciated if someone let me know.

As an instrument teacher (so slightly different) - card is lovely. Small chocolate is very appreciated. Anything more is nice but not necessary. Especially for a wean, a card will probably be plenty enough

I work in early years and much prefer just a card. If the child can write their name or just make their own mark on the card it’s much more special to me. I’m always grateful for gifts but they don’t mean anything more to me than a little card :)

I’d say if you do a gift make it something that can be used up, as opposed to something that might end up in a drawer. I picture teachers having lots of cups!

Thank you for letting me know that! We’ll write cards for sure! Could you please let me know one more thing, can I call women I not sure if she is married or not, as Miss? Or Mrs would be better?

Thank you for letting me know! I’ll let my daughter write some marks or drawings in cards, because she can’t write her name yet.

Thank you, that makes sense! I’m quite sure that a cup is not good idea. Maybe proper chocolate or gift card are better if I’ll give a present other than a Christmas card.

see what your child calls them - I’m a Mrs but often get Miss on Christmas cards and I’m not fussed.

A gift for my son 4 years in the making, 14 years to go

I started this avocado tree from a seed the week my oldest was due with the idea of gifting it to him as a birthday gift for his 18th birthday. So when he’s old enough to move out he has a mature tree that hopefully can fruit.

I’ve had it in a bottle with water and fish tank water as fertilizer from the beginning and it’s still growing new length, branches, and leaves every year.

I cannot wait to give it to him when he’s older but I’m so attached to it I’ll be sad to see it go 😂

Diamonds

So I saw a post on another platform where someone was wondering why anyone would buy natural diamonds anymore since they have lab dimonds now and I commented

"I told my husband I want dinosaur poop diamonds not dog poop dimonds. lab dimonds could be made from anything natural dimonds are made from life on our planet billions of years ago and that to me makes them beautiful.
but there are businesses where you can send ashes of your loved ones and they will make you dimonds out of there ashes so I will be doing that with my 1st dog when he passes. my husband and I have also already decided that when we die he is going to be turned into dimonds and made into bracelets and im going to be turned into necklaces for our children. so they can always hold us close to them rather than just sitting in a jar or in the ground. might as well speed up the process. 😋
In my opinion the dimonds that you are able to choose what they are made out of are more special and valuable rather than dimonds that are most likely made of trash or rotting food."

What are your thoughts and preferences?
