Small gifts for class of 15 pre-k kids

[JenDaveBrendan]

I would like to bring home some small gifts for my son's preschool class of 15 4 year olds. I would also like to pick up something small for his 2 teachers. Any ideas??
Thanks for your help!

One idea for the children is a specail disney snack to share. Mickey shaped pretzels or crackers might be a hit. They also have candy if that is allowed at your school. WE bought goofy shaped sweet tarts for DS class one year. They also have micky straws that were pretty cheep. You can alsombuy a pack of WDW pens or pencils and divide them up. WE have bought teacher pens and note pads.
Sometimes you can ask the CM's that pass out stickers for enough extras for a class. A free gift!!!!

through 4 disney trips, I swear by the huge package of character-shaped crayons. I believe it's 12.00 but check it out when you get there, it may be more, but I always buy one of those and let the kids choose one. Your child could even walk around the room with them and let each choose. You could open the package at home and put enough for them in a disney cup so your son can pass them out easily and they won't be wanting more if they see the left-overs.............and then your son gets to have the extras at home. For the teachers, 4.00 antenna balls or 6.00 packs of magnets.............teachers use magnets often, so it's nice to have some cute ones! Or........disney note pads, snacks like chocolate-covered mickey pretzels, keychains..............

I have also heard of people bringing back the box of Mr Potato head parts so it will continue to be at the school after the year is over. They are $18 at the toy store in DTD.

They sell Mickey shaped suckers 6 for $3.50. We got those for my DD first grade class and also bought different children's books for the classroom. We bought a couple of different fables from the different countries in Epcot. Teacher really liked that and read the books to the kids.

My daughters brought back a disney pencil to their classmates. 10-12 in a package. They weren't too expensive, but I can't remember exactly. I think they got their teachers tiny snow globes, but if memory serves, we cheated and bought those at the Disney store, on clearance.

This is what I plan on getting my my DS's kindergarden class when we go. I might brab two boxes so that there are more parts.

My child's teacher brought back a box of Micky-roni for her this year. She enjoyed making and eating it at home. We have also done the pencil thing and I have brought back posters for my classroom before. There are lots of choices, but you can usually find things priced reasonably.

We brought back the coloring books that they give away at the resorts, along with crayons packaged up. We asked for stickers as well, but they were all out. The kids loved this and it was completely free!

Do all of the resorts do this?

 

[HALEYSMOMMOM]

Yes, I think so. We were at POFQ this time, but we have also gotten them at the Poly and Wilderness Lodge and Riverside. This time we just told them what we wanted them for, and they were happy to give them to us. We only needed nine, but I don't think they would mind giving more. You could also get the kids guides they give away at Epcot, but with it being a puzzle type guide that you have to visit the attractions to get the answers, we decided to pass on those for the class.

Thanks HALEYSMOMMOM!

We brought back a bunch of Mickey shaped straws for my DS's class. They were about $0.50 each and the kids really liked them. I didn't put any kind of note with them, so I got a few phone calls from moms who were worried that their child had boosted the straw from someone else!! It worked out well for us. Have fun! --H
