As much as I love to get toys for every kid in Chloe’s class for Christmas present – I strongly feel that books may be a better idea. Even chocolates are discouraged by the school these days – so here I am thinking – should we get books to donate to the entire class? or just give money to her teacher to get the books herself. It would be easier to give her the money to get the books – because she would then know what are suitable – and probably get a better deal. But I’m worried – that her teacher might not like the “money” thingie – so what do you all think? buy the books on my own and donate it to the class – or hand the money over and let the teacher pick the books she wants for the class?
