Will is wrapping a bunch of stuff up this week since he's starting real school next week. He'll wrap up his early intervention services and I need gift ideas - he has three therapists and a service coordinator I'd like to give a "thank you" gift to. Also, I'd like to do something for his teachers at his daycare. Any ideas?

Gift cards always come in handy ... or possibly a box of good chocolates or a nice bottle of wine.

Jen, did you have the same user name on MSBB? and where are you in NJ? (as a former NJ girl, I am always nosy LOL)

Hi Carol,

Yes, I had the same (or a similar) name on MSBB. I'm in central Jersey (Somerset County). Where in NJ are you from?

Carol in Maryland

Mainly Bergen County. I lived in Morristown as a little kid, then Maywood, then Paramus. Graduated from Douglass.

Dawn,
I like the idea of chocolates. Sometimes I stop at a nice bakery and pick up a box of petit fours wrapped in a bow for our dcp. She loves that!
Coffee gift cards are nice. Something pretty for their offices. Have you seen those "suncatchers" that are just one string of beads? Those look great in classroom windows.
As thank you's I often draw the outline of a picture, something the recipient is interested in, and have Katie color it in. People love that!
Bittersweet to be moving on, huh?

Dawn ... how about a picture of Will in a foam frame or something he can help decorate? You could include a card/letter expressing your thanks and appreciation for all the care they provided to Will. That way, they can read your letter of thanks and see a picture of Will's smiling face, and know they made a difference.

Chocolates are always good as well.


Jen! I work in Morris County at Picatinny Arsenal! (I live in PA, though ... I'm one of "those". )

I like the GC and chocolates ideas..I also like giving/receiving nice planters with some bright fresh flowers mixed in.
