Quarantine Teacher Appreciation Gift Ideas for the mail plus a free donut teacher appreciation printable gift tag that can be delievered via email, over USPS or with Restaurant delivery or pick-up. Plus Virtual teacher appreciation ideas for Zoom, Google classroom and more.

Quarantine Teacher Appreciation Gift Ideas

Coming up with this Quarantine Teacher Appreciation Gift Idea took some time. I knew I wanted a punny teacher appreciation printable that could be used during Teacher Appreciation week or as an end of the year gift idea. Plus, currently we are in social isolation and many local restaurants and establishments are suffering, so I wanted to grab something would would give back to local organizations.

We came up with this easy Teacher Appreciation Week gift idea – DONUT you know how much I miss you printable gift tag for teachers. And for years, were we are not in social isolation, this teacher gift tag also comes with another quote that reads DONUT know what I would do without you.

Mail a Gift Card

For our donut teacher appreciation gift card idea, we went at it two ways. First, we picked up gift cards that teachers could use at their leisure. I privately emailed teachers and asked for their best mailing address (knowing well that I might be the school address.) It was a personal question and I know some teachers would want to keep that information private. I softened it by sharing my child wanted to send them a treat. This teacher gift card idea well because it’s a gift that is not perishable. They can get it immediately at their home or when they return to school to pick up materials.

If leaving the home is not convenient for you, consider shopping Amazon for gift cards. You can have them mailed to your home and then add our printable teacher appreciation gift tag before mailing to your child’s educator.

By purchasing from a local bakery or restaurant, you are supporting small businesses during social isolation. Consider it a win/win.

Online Restaurant Delivery

Another option using your donut teacher gift tag is restaurant delivery or pick-up. We used Door Dash to deliver donuts. In this case, you can swing the gift tag to the establishment and add it to the order.

If leaving the house is not an option, consider this electronic addition. You can email the gift tag separately with a sweet message that your great teacher is expecting a delivery.

Another creative idea is to take a photo of your child holding the printed gift tag and email it to your teacher after the Restaurant Delivery arrives (track it on your phone or app.) I think this is a cute idea because it’s personalizes the doughnut delivery with a cute smile from your child and a sweet punny teacher message attached.

For this Teacher Appreciation Restaurant Delivery idea you will need your teacher’s home mailing address.

Teacher Appreciation Printables

We have years and years worth of teacher appreciation printables. Use any of these ideas and using a flat rate shipping box from USPS fill your box with a teacher gift and send it straight from your mailbox. Never leave the home.

More Unique Teacher Appreciation Gift Ideas

Get creative with your electronic and virtual teacher appreciation ideas too.

Host a Class Zoom Party. have all the kids dress up and surprise the teacher. During this time you can share memories of the year together.
Make a Video Message. Have all the students in the class send in a 10 second clip of the reason they love their teacher. Piece those together for a sweet video message. Such a unique and priceless gift idea.
Send an Books Gift Card. One of my favorite places to shop for books is Better World Books. You can buy used or new books. I love buying used knowing I am recycling older books and finding many of my favorite authors and books for less. This also allows teachers to fill their personal and classroom library.
Thanks a Lattee. Thank a teacher a lot with a printable coffee gift card! Print and mail.

If you want the lovely taste of fried chicken but don’t want all the fat associated with it, these easy air fryer chicken legs are you solution. Only 3 ingredients and you can have your air fryer drumsticks cooked in 40 minutes time. Insert. Cook. Walk away.

Ingredients for Chicken Drumsticks

These incredibly easy Air Fryer Italian Drumsticks only have three ingredients.

1 Stick Butter (Melted) – Follow this melting butter trick in our Backing Hacks and Tips.

Copycat Chili’s Cookie Skillet – AKA Pizookie

Amazing Copycat Chili’s Cookie Skillet – AKA BJ’s Pizookie on Frugal Coupon Living. One of our favorite cookie desserts made to perfection in a cast iron skillet.

Copycat Chili’s Cookie Skillet

This recipe is one our favorite desserts! We love going to Chili’s and grabbing the cookie dessert. It’s warm, cold, crunchy and creamy, it has everything you want in a sweet treat! The smell when the cookie comes out is delightful. Comfort food in a skillet. Containing a melty, crunchy cookie topped with a scoop of ice cream. Dig into it with a spoon and you won’t be disappointed! Instead of splurging on the pizookie next time you’re at Chili’s or perhaps BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse, make your own at home anytime! Enjoy!

Chili’s Skillet Cookie Ingredients

1/3 cup Butter
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla
1 Egg
1 1/2 cup Flour
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips

You will need a smaller cast iron skillet. I recommend this highly rated 8-inch pre-seasoned cast iron skillet with over 20,000 positive Amazon reviews! It has a handle, but does NOT come with a cast iron handle cover.

If you want one with a head resistant hand sleeve, consider this set of three cast iron skillets or this set of one preseason cast iron skillet with handle cover. Either work fine. An 8 inch round pan is fine too!

Chili’s Cookie Skillet Directions

The recipe is incredibly easy. Worth the time it takes for this tasty perfection!

Preheat oven to 350.
Place small skillet or 8″ round pan over low heat and melt butter.
Add sugar, brown sugar, beaten egg and vanilla. Mix well.
Add flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until well blended.
Add in chocolate chips and stir to evenly distribute.
Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow to cool 10 minutes.
Cut into slices and top with vanilla ice cream.
