This is a gift I made for my son's first grade teacher. They finish up school next week and I'll give it to him then. I found the album kit at Target. It's by Colorbök. It caught my eye because it has a masculine look to it. This teacher is a man and I didn't want to do anything too cutesy.

It includes a section of pages with quotes about teachers. When you pull out the tags under the quotes, it has little things about my son.

Page 1 tag reads: "Thomas wants to be a teacher because of you!"
Page 2 tag reads: "Thomas loves math because you love math!"
Page 3 tag reads: "Thomas writes books about science and bugs because he is inspired by you!"
