As promised, here is the second installment for our teacher gift idea series. I am hoping that the publication of this post can still make it in time for your holiday shopping and that this post on Christmas Gift Ideas for Teachers can help you better decide on what gifts to purchase.
Nowadays, online shopping can bring out a whole world of convenience for us moms, but when the holiday budget comes in at the last minute, it can be really stressful to shop online. Why? Because shipment may be delayed because of the holidays – delivery volumes, holiday induced traffic situation etc. even online sellers put up a disclaimer for these possible issues, and may even have earlier cut-off schedules.
In any case, for those who will be doing last minute PHYSICAL STORE shopping, for teachers at least, here’s part two of our blog series on Gift Ideas for teachers in the Philippines, this time under P350.00.
Christmas Gift Ideas for Teachers Under 350.00
Apparently, my daughter’s school discourages giving gifts for teachers during Christmas or any holiday for that matter. This is why I prodded her to come up with personalized Christmas Cards for each of her teachers so that we as a family could at least express our gratitude for the many great things her teachers have done for her. Having said that, I still researched for teacher gifts under P350.00 because I have become a mall rat, and I love shopping.
Pastry Gift Boxes for Teachers
For gifts under P350.00 you can already get a small box of pastry at either Purple Oven, Conti’s or even Mary Grace. Conti’s for instance sells boxes of assorted pastries, lemon squares, and even brownies for less than P300.00. A six-piece cheese roll box from Mary Grace on the other hand runs at around P320.00 I think. Just make sure to call in advance, or drop by the day before you decide to pick up the pastries (if they are more than five etc) so that you will not have to wait longer or run the risk of not getting the pastry that you want.
You may also want to get a bar or two of Theo and Philo Artisan Chocolates. They are available at Gourdo’s, Rustan’s Department Stores, and select Robinson’s Department Store Branches. Echo Store, also carries this local and world-class chocolates if I am not mistaken.
What is nice about giving food items as gifts is that it is much appreciated and at the same time can be shared with teacher’s friends of her own family.

If you are not the type to give edible gifts, and would not want to be inconvenienced with the needed careful handling, storage, etc of these gifts then go the usual route – buy something that is useful for child’s teacher all year round.
Christmas Gift ideas over at SM Department Store
In SM, there are cute water bottles with matching ear phones that are already in cute gift boxes. They come in different colors such that you will not have to find a different gift for Male teachers because they have the gift set in darker, male-friendly colors as well. These gift boxes go for P299.00 each.
Another gift that you can buy from the department store are cute power banks like this, which go for P349.00. They come in various designs that can be appreciated by both male or female teachers.
They also have eco bags that are useful and at the same time adorable — complete with inspirational quotes or statements. Price range is at P100.00 to P249.00.
The Body Shop also has holiday gift packages for ladies.
Female Clothes Shop For Me meanwhile sells perfumes for P298.00. Smelled each of them, and they are all light and happy-smelling. Something that won’t trigger AR on children who may want to give teacher a hug (just kidding). They also have cute lovely pouches at P349.00. I think teachers can use it as an over-sized pencil case or a kikay kit.
Over at Miniso, there are scented Holiday Candles that your child’s teacher may appreciate. It sells at about P299.00. There are also spill-proof water bottles in the store, and those that are made of glass, and have a silicone protective sleeve that retails at less than P350.00 per bottle.
If there is a Marks and Spencers near you then you may want to head there as well and pick up a box of tea, or boxes of gourmet coffee packets that start at P225.00 per box for the tea, and around P345.00 for the box of Gourmet Coffee Packets.
So there you have it, hope you got an idea or two from this blog post for teacher gifts worth P350.00. Hope I have been able to help! Till next post everyone.
