[What to do for teachers? My son has several this year.]

We do classroom supplies every year - we do a big gift bag before school starts and then again at Christmas. :) My kids teachers seem to love it. We buy pencils, highlighters, sanitizer, kleenex, post its, dry erase markers, anything we think they could use. Then we add in a small personal gift for the teacher - a scarf or something else we made and call it good. We find all the supplies at the dollar store or use coupons at the other stores. I don't spend more than $25 and I only have one child in elementary. The one in high school does cards for her favorite teachers.

[Good Quality Netbook?]

I bought a Dell Latitude - it's got a rugged rubberized cover and a light on the outside of the top so when the child is online you can see at a glance. :) I didn't pay for Office as I just got it with Linux (which I like better). It's wonderful!

[Smart Touch Gloves - gloves for touch screens]

KMart has the Isotoner brand and they seem to work ok on my blackberry. They are 50% off right now, so around $10 or less. :)
