It takes a special person to be a teacher — so express your appreciation and tell them what makes them so special in a "Thank You" video gift as a memorable souvenir.

VidDay is the perfect and easy solution to create the most beautiful and meaningful video montage as a souvenir gift for a teacher.
With just a click of a button, you can invite everyone to join in a surprise video gift to celebrate your teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week 2023.
The Best Teacher Appreciation Gift
It is time to say "Thank You" to your exceptional teachers. Let teachers, past and present, know you appreciate them for all that they do.
Get Students Involved
Tell your teacher how much you've appreciated them this year and everything they have done for you. Give them appreciation with kind words, hold up signs with messages of gratitude, or even add text cards in the video with messages from other teachers and the Principal.

Here are some more ideas to help get your juices flowing:
Share a story about how your teacher positively impacted your life.
We know you listen to your teachers. What's a famous line that your teacher always repeats in class? Repeat it back to them!
It's "dress like your teacher day" — dress up as your teacher in your video.
Grab your paper and markers — write a message to say "thank you" to your teachers.
Or, just a simple "thank you." It's a message that teachers don't often hear.
Have Faculty Get In on the Fun
Gather all the staff together.
Get faculty from the cafeteria to the school library to show their appreciation and thanks to all teachers. You can even get the Principal or Vice-Principal to share their kind words with that fantastic teacher. Teachers hearing the kind words from their students, boss, and coworkers will make them feel truly appreciated for their commitment and hard work.
You can even create an appreciation video for other faculty in the school. It doesn't need to be just for teachers. Have students celebrate and thank cafeteria staff, janitors, library staff, and more.
An Idea for Parent-Teacher Association
Suppose you need some ideas to bring to the following parent-teacher organization (PTO) or parent-teacher association (PTA) meeting. A video gift for teacher appreciation week is a great idea to bring up! Not only does it bring the students together to create something meaningful, but it gives thanks to the teachers who have worked so hard this year.
So at the next PTA/PTO meeting, you can bring up making a beautiful video montage as a gift for teacher appreciation or even graduation.
