This gift box comes in an exciting, springy color that positively screams “Happy First Date!” and is a great gift that your date can sinfully enjoy. With 24 assorted pieces in every box, there's a fair chance that at least a dozen of the chocs will be his or her favorite types. And then, hopefully, you’ll be granted a second date... If so, perhaps you two can indulge in another box of these scrumptious chocolates together. Youre The Best Candle Price: $45 Buy at: www.redenvelope.com Why: This beautiful jasmine-scented candle literally states “You’re The Best,” which will make your date feel extra special from the very start. It is accompanied by a short story that will add to the sentimental aspect of the gift, and it has a cool re-usable leather box to ensure it's a keepsake gift. Now all you need to do is make sure you keep his or her special feelings burning like the candle's flame, and then a second date will be guaranteed. Italian Lavender-Scented Stones Price: $18 Buy at: www.redenvelope.com Why: These pretty-smelling stones are is a gift that lasts forever and ever, unlike a clichéd bouquet of flowers. The jar also comes in handy for millions of fun household uses, such as scenting the laundry room, linen closet, and more. 25 pumice stones are carefully scented promoting relaxation of the mind... Groovy, man! Day Spa Basket Price: $42 Buy at: www.redenvelope.com Why: This gift says “take time out for yourself, you deserve it.” A neatly woven basket, jam-packed with Tipton Charles spa treats, it's the perfect “take a break” gift. Eucalyptus bath salts, basil nectarine body lotion, black mud facial soap, rejuvenating spring water and sweet candies make up the ultimate relaxation basket. While your date unwinds with this in-house spa treatment, without doubt, he or she will be thinking of you... Truth Vase from Maya Buy at: www.Hallmark.com Why: This vase is all about honesty, promoted by the simple and poetic message printed on the exterior. Watch out though, because truth will be expected by your date, so don't play any games after buying this gift. But, of course, a loyal person has nothing to worry about... You will seem like an open-hearted person when delivering this thoughtful gift. Your Favorite Indie Movie Price: $12-30 Buy at: www.iFilm.com Why: Hopefully you and your date will share similar movie preferences (tip - don't buy them a kung-fu movie, or the latest slasher pic, if you have any doubt whether they like that kind of thing!). Naturally, when you give your date a DVD or video, it's most likely that you'll get invited back to watch the movie with him or her. So, then you two can cuddle up, while watching a romantic movie, or laugh hysterically at a comedy. Either way, you are enjoying each other's company. Share Your Favorite Book Price: Varies Buy at: Borders, Barnes and Noble Why: Your taste in books can help your date get to know the 'real' you, because there’s nothing like a good book. One can tell a lot from the type of book a person likes, and perhaps if you both have a similar taste in page-turners, then you will move on to the next chapter in your blossoming romance. Hersheys Bear Price: $32.99 Buy at: www.giftsense.com Why: This is a “to-die-for” teddy bear, with a squeezable plush body. Man or woman, you’ll definitely go all soft and gooey for this adorable, huggable, stuffed bear. His fluffy hands hold an enlarged stuffed Hershey’s Kiss and a 7” solid chocolate kiss accompanies the 13” tall teddy as well. This gift is sweet all the way around, and certainly will bring a big smile to your date’s face. You Brighten My Day Cookies Price: $39.99 Buy at: www.giftsense.com Why: This mouth-watering gift comes with six enormous assorted flavored cookies. And you can even add your own personalized message... The sun décor says “you brighten my day” which is a cute way to let your date know how you feel. Moreover, after devouring the fresh baked cookies, courtesy of the Blooming Cookies kitchens, the ceramic vase can be used in the household or office as a flower pot... Nice. 24kt gold Dipped Rose Price: $59 Buy at: www.romanceher.com Why:If you can't say it with flowers, say it with a solid Gold flower!

By Toby Leah Bochan The holidays are a perfect time to show your child's teachers how much you appreciate all they do. So what do teachers really want? Favorite gifts cited were candles, plants, candy, and fruit baskets, but we've gathered up some even better — and sometimes cheaper — ideas that are sure-fire teacher winners and heart-warmers. 1. Write from the Heart "I know it's corny, but getting a thoughtful thank-you card from a student is a hundred times better than a bottle of perfume or a knick-knack," Kate, a 7th-grade social studies teacher reports, echoing a common sentiment. It may seem simple, but a poem or letter of thanks from your child is a gesture that's truly appreciated. Have him tell a story about a special moment during the school year, or about what school would be like without a favorite teacher. As for you, consider writing a letter to the principal lauding a teacher's good work and mailing a copy to that teacher. Or if you feel a teacher is especially noteworthy, take the initiative to nominate her for an award such as Scholastic's National Teacher of the Year Award . 2. Get Together and Give Get parents and children of a grade (or even several!) together to work up a sweat while doing something nice for teachers. Organize a free car wash just for teachers in the school, or clean and spruce up the teacher break room with wildflowers and fresh-baked goodies. If parents can volunteer in the classroom and take over for a few hours, put together a luncheon for all the teachers so they can really sit down and relax for awhile together. Have each class take on a task such as making centerpieces, place cards or tablecloths while parents take on food duty, bringing in favorite dishes to share. 3. Gifts from the Class Again and again, when asked what holiday gifts meant the most to them, teachers answered, "something handmade by the class," whether it be a poster with every child's handprint under a "thank you" banner, cookies made by tiny hands, or a simple framed class photo signed by the children. Another great cooperative class ideas is to have each child create a flower out of cardboard and paint, or wires and fabric, and create a bouquet that will brighten the winter days. 4. Give to the Classroom Many teachers pay for school supplies out of their own pockets, so a gift basket filled with colorful pens, paper clips, post-its, stickers, stamps, and other office goodies is always a favorite gift. Calendars and any items that help the teacher stay organized are also great. If you can organize the parents of the class, ask the teacher for a "wish-list" of books (and even software and videos) and assign parents a book each to create a new classroom library. 5. Make it Personal Teachers have lives outside the classroom and many of them have hobbies and collections. Find out what activities your child's teacher participates in after school and really show them you care about them as people, adding a snow-globe to a growing collection, giving a skein of pretty yarn to a knitter, or a box of golf balls to a golfer. If you can't ferret out this information, a popular collectable gift to give is a Christmas ornament, which can be handmade or personalized by a child. 6. Treat Teachers like Royalty Let teachers know that you appreciate all those long hours on their feet and at their desks by giving them the treats they may not give themselves. A pedicure or massage is a great gift. Get parents to chip in for a day at a local spa, tickets to the theater, or a gift certificate to a first-rate restaurant so he can really escape the stresses of school life. Or for a simpler escape, gift certificates for a movie or video rentals — perhaps tied up with a box of candy or popcorn — will surely be appreciated.
