    The best card I have even gotten was each end of the card was DD handprint cut out and she painted them and then they were joined together with a strip of paper accordian folded with "I love you this much" printed on it. It was just gorgeous!!

    I like ones done with photos. DD1 made a nice one, it was a cardboard photo frame with a heat cut out for the photo, she then decorated it. It had magnets on the back so it could go on the fridge.

    Oh YES I forgot that one, one of my staff did that one year. It had handprints, ribbon and a love heart in the middle with I love you this much on it. Very sweet!

    I use a laminated bookmark she gave me which also had some coloured string on it with some beads that she threaded on!! It's gorgeous and I use it all the time!! It has a cute poem on it, a drawing on the other side!

    I got a card last year from DD1 (kindy) that she had had to draw a picture of her choice on, and then the teacher wrote what she said were her favourite things to do with me. I loved it. She also decorated a little terracotta plant pot and they planted seedlings in them. This year on Valentine's Day (could be adapted to MD) I got a keychain thing from DD2 that was different coloured beads that she had threaded, with the key ring bit on one end and a love heart on the other end.

    For Father's Day they did painted handprints on a tile, and a card along similar lines of the Mother's Day one.

    Only kindy level, but I think older kids could just do a more detailed job IYKWIM.

    Ha ha. Lucky for you you'd been a good girl!!! I'm discovering the dangers of small children who worship their kindy/pre-primary teachers, and tell them EVERYTHING!!
