Teachers are the unsung heroes of our education system. They’re the ones who patiently explain algebra, inspire a love for literature, and somehow manage to keep a room full of energetic kids in check. So, why not sprinkle some gratitude and fun into the lives of those amazing educators who bring joy and humour to the classroom.

Scroll down to see our gift guide featuring a range of hilarious, customisable, practical gifts for teachers. Or read on to learn how to nail the perfect funny teacher gift:

What makes the perfect funny gift for teachers?

Funny never fails

Laughter is the best medicine, and a little humour can go a long way in a teacher’s day. A funny gift can be a delightful surprise that brightens their day and provides a much-needed break from the serious side of teaching.

Inside jokes are always appreciated

If you know of any inside jokes or memorable moments from the classroom, incorporating these into your gift can make it extra special. It shows that you (or your young one) have been paying attention and value the sense of connection to the teacher.

Customisation is key

Show that you’ve put thought into your present by customising your gift to suit the teacher’s personality or interests. A custom teacher gift makes it more meaningful and memorable.

Practicality is a bonus

Funny and customised doesn’t mean that the gift shouldn’t be practical. Items that teachers can actually use in their daily routine will always be a hit.

Ticking all the boxes: Why WTF Notebooks are the perfect teacher gift

Now, you might be wondering what gift idea could possibly fit all of the above requirements. The answer: WTF Notebooks. These quirky and customisable notebooks (and school planners) are the ultimate gift, providing you with funny, customisable, relatable stationery, perfect for teachers.

Guaranteed to make them laugh

With WTF Notebooks, you’re guaranteed to make any teacher laugh out loud. Browsing our massive library of titles, you won’t find any notebooks labelled “Notes” or “School diary.” Instead, get ready for “Things I can put off until tomorrow” or “My omnibus of pet peeves.” There are more than 200 titles to choose from, each one funnier than the last.

Inside jokes and personal touches

We’ve been churning out side-splitting notebooks for years, gathering a treasure trove of titles that tackle every relatable situation and joke under the sun. Reflect on classroom moments, recurring jokes, or memorable situations your teacher can relate to, then browse our full range of titles to find that perfect teacher gift with a personal touch.

Customisation galore

When it comes to customisation, your choice of title is just the beginning. You can select from 16 different cover colours, and even customise the inside pages. Whether your teacher is into lined pages for writing, graph paper for maths, or blank pages for doodling, there’s something for everyone. And if you’re unsure what inside pages to choose, you can’t go wrong with our Academic Planner inside pages.

WTF Notebooks come in three different configurations, giving you the choice of binding type and size, including the school-approved standard A4 size.

Humour meets practicality

WTF Notebooks combine hilarious and witty titles with the practicality of a good old notebook. Whether it’s for jotting down lesson plans or venting about a rough day, these notebooks are as useful as they are funny.
