It is their time and they would heartily appreciate a breather. Coordinate singing and dancing competitions for teachers. You could also arrange for a lunch party with home cooked food or food from a restaurant.</p> <p>The idea behind setting up Teachers&rsquo; day activities for kids is to let your child acknowledge the efforts his teachers make for him and his classmates. It is your duty as parents to teach your kids gratitude, compassion and being sensitive towards others.</p>
