    I always give a gift. I usually spend about $1.00 per child. I have been fortunate to find a plush animal the last couple of years that the students have loved. One year I got lots of plastic Christmas cups at Walmart, and filled them with a tiny plush animal and some candy, tied them up in a Christmas cellophane bag. I noticed similar plastic cups at the Dollar Tree this year. You can find lots of workable ideas at the .99 store, Dollar Tree, big Lots, WalMart, etc.
    For future reference, you can plan ahead next August/September, and stock up on crayons, markers, or paints, and use those for gifts come Christmas. If you have more time than $ you could bake cookies and give each child a home baked cookie in a ziploick style bag, or a cellophane bag. If you can afford it, you could order the cookies from your local bakery and do the same thing.
    Students always love getting something special from the teacher.
    I give a book at the end of the of the year, and I use my bonus points from scholastic to order them.
    Merry Christmas. -|--
