when I was teaching, I would have hugged you if you gave me wine as a gift!

Yay!

Ditto, everyone would love wine, but I would make sure it's ok to bring into the school.

I got champagne a few times but the parents knew me well and knew I loved it. Otherwise, it can be risky.

[callalily]

I'd be wary, we weren't allowed to have alcohol on school grounds.

[emjacobs]

Not everyone loves wine, and some people love wine too much. I wouldn't do it unless you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the person will gladly accept it.

I'm giving the daycare teacher a bottle of wine and picking up a coookie or brownie mix in a mason jar thing to go with it. I know for a fact that she drinks wine and I'll be able to help my kid give it to her. The first grade teacher will not get wine because I don't really know anything about her and I'd have to send my kid into school with a bottle of wine in her backpack which feels weird to me. I think I'll do a gift card/cookie mix combo for her.

Okay, so no wine.

[steph196]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!! I love getting wine!

[nahoku]

I wouldn't unless I was friends with the teacher and knew him/her well enough to know what kind of wine they like.

I am a teacher and don't like wine. However, I would be tickled to receive it from a parent, that is such a nice gesture! I would definitely check with the teacher first, because I don't know if anyone else would feel how I do.

What about a gift card to a local winery or a wine tasting?

No, I'm going amazon gift card.  

[sailorgray]

I wouldn't. Besides the fact that its kind of inappropriate, I have been finding lately that a lot less people drink wine than I thought.  I would play it safe and get something else. 

[speckledfrog]

Ditto PPs with it not being allowed on school grounds.

[littlepeanut]

I would give a gift card for wine instead. Then he or she can choose what they like.

[HiC]

Gift card to one of the restaurants/wine shops/cheese shops in town.

[bonnie]

Amazon gift card sounds perfect. Wine is tricky, even if someone likes wine, they may not like the type you give them. Plus the whole alcohol on school grounds issue.

[snickers]

I would have loved wine as a gift, but I wouldn't want to have it at work.

[eb777888]

I would not give wine, no.

[iamgrace]

Wine was always my favourite gift, but I wouldn't give it unless you knew the teacher in question would enjoy it.
