11 Prime Day teacher gifts that are still good value
These Prime Day teacher deals have ended but they're still good buys
Amazon Prime Day has been and gone for another year but many of the items we were sale-crazy for yesterday are still pretty good value even at full price. Here's what we've been recommending for the modern-day heroes that are our children's amazing teachers.
With the end of school looming, many parents find themselves in a whirlwind of end-of-year madness, from attending Sports Day, shopping for next year's school uniform, or thinking about buying gifts for teachers. Amazon Prime Day helped to simplify at least one of those tasks - although the savviest of shoppers bought their Prime Day teacher gifts before Prime Day ended at midnight!
Forget buying yet another mug for a teacher or sending your kid to school with an oh-so-obviously last-minute bottle of wine or box of chocs, there is still time to pick up some gifts that your kids' teachers will genuinely appreciate. Here's what was in our basket for Prime Day - and we reckon these items are still good value at full price.
Bee Friendly Wildflower Seeds Mix - £4.99 | £3.99 Save 20%
If you know your teacher is a fan of gardening then wildflower seeds make a great little gift to pop inside a thank you card. These bee-friendly flowers are not only beautiful but they provide a home for important insects too, and this particular packet contains 26 varieties of flower, including cornflower seeds, California poppy seeds, half-height sunflower seeds, marigold seeds, sage seeds, red poppy seeds, and much more. Teachers always say they don't need gifts, but this is one token they're sure to love.
Lindt Creation Dessert Box - £6.99 | £6 Save 14%
If you're looking for a budget-friendly teacher present, we think this Lindt chocolate box is the perfect option. Featuring a selection of 40 Lindt chocolates inspired by famous dessert recipes - including tiramisu, chocolate fondant, and creme brulee - it's an indulgent treat for any hardworking teacher.
SUNTQ Reusable Coffee Cup - £14.59 |
Teachers and coffee go hand in hand (who can blame them, managing a class of 30 kids isn't easy work!) and this travel cup will keep their drink at the perfect temperature for up to eight hours. The lid is leak-proof too and the BPA-free material means this is an eco-friendly choice.
Le Creuset Stoneware Coffee Mug - £15.00
Le Creuset has solidified its status as one of the most sought-after cookware brands with its range of colourful kitchen essentials, so this coffee mug is sure to make your teacher feel special. There are 13 colours to choose from, so you can even pick your teacher's favourite.
NEOM Bedtime Hero Bath Foam - £18
NEOM is a staple self-care brand and we can't think of anyone who deserves it more than a tired teacher at the end of the school year. This blend of chamomile, ylang-ylang, and cedarwood is designed to bring on a restful night's sleep, so you know your favourite teacher will be getting the relaxation they so richly deserve.
Lindt Master Chocolatier Collection - £22.00 | £19.09 Save 22%
You can't go wrong with chocolate gifts, and thanks to Prime Day you can save 26% on this extra-large box of Lindt chocolates. This assortment of milk, white and dark chocolates is sure to leave your teacher feeling spoilt.
Buyagift Afternoon Tea Gift Experience Box - £34.99
Afternoon tea is always a winning gift, and with this experience box from Buyagift your teacher can choose from over 465 locations across the UK - including country manors, hotels, tea rooms and restaurants - so you know they're getting the experience they actually want. There was 30% off for Amazon Prime Day but this is still a brilliant deal for a teacher gift.
Hay Hampers Afternoon Tea Delights Hamper - £29.00
Another one for afternoon tea lovers, this bumper hamper includes a delightful selection of premium treats including black Ceylon tea, strawberry and white chocolate cookies, lemon curd all-butter biscuits, a clotted cream fudge bar, and much more. The stylish jute bag packaging is a gift in itself that's especially handy for teachers, plus you can add a personalised message.
The Gin & Treats Hamper - £32.00
Another great option for gin lovers is a hamper, and this Prime Day deal comes with much more than just the cans of Manchester Gin and Sicilian Lemon Tonic. There's popcorn, lemon biscuits and gourmet marshmallows to enjoy too, all presented in a beautiful white and gold signature box.
