I feel like if I were more creative I could make this look nice or at least cute. I'm not so creative though.
I have access to Amazon prime, dollar tree, amazing savings, and a couple of Jewish supermarkets. And of course handwritten cards.
Anything edible needs to be Jewish brand.
Thanks for your help!

Can't do ice coffee because I can't deliver fresh. This will go to school in my kids' backpacks.
Nice chocolate is pricy in cholov yisrael and I can't give cholov stam. I could do a regular chocolate bar if I have something cool to write with it though. Like if it were non Jewish I would give a milky way and say you're the best teacher in the galaxy and something else along those lines.
Not sure what the fancy donuts cost around here. Anyone know if bingo sells fancy and how much they'd be? Do they sell in a box or do I need to shop for a container too?
Thanks for helping me brainstorm.

Can you buy a shelf stable ice coffee? The J&J ones don't need to be refrigerated.

That's true. But they don't seem like such a treat either.

Starbucks gift certificate. Wrap it nicely with cellophane which is inexpensive. I have a little gadget that curls cheap ribbons so everything looks fancy and perhaps a handmade card or thank you from the child
Don't give food that needs to be eaten because they will probably have too much.
Don't give cheap tchotchkes like mugs because teachers don't need or want this stuff.

You can do a gift cArd for a drink at an ice cream store. They wrap it up nicely so its decently presented. When dd was a counselor she got a few from her campers.

Starbucks won't work for my demographic (most teachers are yeshivish in my schools) and I personally hate gift cards that need to be used at a specific food store because I never get around to going.

You can give parve, but check out a local store and milchig may be cheaper than you think.
You don't need a cute line.
My cards are heartfelt expressions of appreciation with specific things the teacher does that child and I appreciate.

A Torino or rosemarie chocolate bar is less than 5 dollars. Wrap it in chanuka wrapping paper, attach a nice card in an envelope and tie a ribbon/bow around the envelope
I've done that and it looks very nice

This takes time.
A friend did this for a teacher who went above and beyond.
A tin menorah- the ones that cost under a dollar.
In each hole, was another small note, something specific that she appreciates, a picture from the child.
A few bags of chocolate coins in different colors and the whole thing wrapped up in cellophane.
