teacher gift

As a teacher, a gift is very special to me. However, for me instead of getting the typical apple decor or something similar, I would rather have something the child made. Some of the things I cherish most even after changing district or schools are the following:
A christmas card from the student who gave me the hardest time during the school year...he signed it and said thank you. I still wonder how he is.
A painting from a student who is blind.
A drawing from a first grade class in consulted with often. ( I teach special education)
A picture of a cat in oil pastels from a very interesting student

So, hope that helps.
