A whole year of patience, gold stars and gentle nudges deserves more than a quick thank you at the gate. This thanks for helping me grow mug says it properly, every morning.

Save for later ♡

Some teachers hand out more than worksheets. They plant little seeds of confidence, curiosity and kindness, then water them all year long.

This mug is a way for a student (or a grateful parent) to say: we noticed.

A Thanks for Helping Me Grow Mug in Soft Watercolour

The design is a delicate watercolour of a pot made from a bundle of coloured pencils, tied with a little twine bow. Fresh green seedlings sprout from the top, and two tiny ladybirds have made themselves at home.

Above it, “Thanks for helping me grow” is hand lettered in deep navy brush script, so it reads clearly against the white mug.

A Gift That Gets Used Every Day

Teachers are given a lot of candles. A good mug, on the other hand, goes straight to the staffroom and stays there. This one holds 11oz (about 325mL), enough for a proper cuppa between bells.

The rainbow of pencils brightens up any desk, and the message keeps working long after the card has been recycled.

Thanks for helping me grow mug: your questions answered

About this mug

Is this a good end of year teacher gift?

Yes. It was made for exactly that moment, from a student or the whole family. It also suits a farewell, World Teachers' Day or a tutor who helped a child find their feet.

What does the design look like?

A soft watercolour of a pot made from coloured pencils with green seedlings and two ladybirds growing out of the top, under the words "Thanks for helping me grow" in navy script.

Do you have more teacher gift mugs?

Yes. See all our teacher gift mugs for heartfelt, funny and Aussie designs for teachers, aides and educators.

Delivery and care

Do you deliver across Australia?

Yes, to every state and territory by Australia Post, and shipping is free when you order 2 or more items. We only ship within Australia.

How is the design printed, and will it last?

Every mug is hand-printed in Australia using sublimation printing on an 11oz ceramic mug. We like to be upfront: like every sublimation print, the colours will gradually soften with use and washing. It is made for everyday drinking, and a favourite mug that has worn in a little is part of its charm.

How do I look after it?

The sublimation print is dishwasher safe, so you can load it up with the rest of the kitchen. To keep the colours looking fresh for longer, a hand wash with a soft sponge is kinder than a scourer.
