                teachers aren't supposed to receive gifts that are too costly. They will need to declare if they do. (But I do wonder how many will) Hence it is easier to give hand made and home made stuff.


                Having said that, there are teachers who will decline expensive gifts. 🙂

                    How do the parents know which size to buy for branded shirts /belts?

                      :yikes: wa! to showoff, bribe or curry favor?[/quote]Here's my theory. Not all but maybe for some who are used to such lifestyle, it's auto that they think of such gifts. Maybe to them, it's very normal stuff.
