A friend sent me an idea for super practical teacher appreciation gift that is oh so cute…..an herb garden!  Take a look at how cute this is and then I will tell you how I made it!

Supplies you will need:

• herbs such as thyme, basil, mint, chives, dill, etc
• a large planter
• soil
• signs (I used pre-cut chalkboard signs and taped to a stick)

What to do:

• Grab the kiddos and have them plant the herbs in the planter.  Mine loved this part.
• Make your cute little signs and place them by the plants.

The signs I made say:

• You are “BASIL” ically the best!
• You were “MINT” to teach!
• I have had a great “THYME” with you!
• Thanks for helping me grow. Love, _______

Other ideas for more plants:

• “CHIVE” learned a lot!
• “D I’LL” miss you a lot!
