A tote bag for room parents, the people who end up carrying forty cupcakes, the party supplies and the class group chat. A practical thank-you from a teacher or the PTA.
Why this is the right room parent gift

Who this is for
Room parents, class parents, PTA and PTO volunteers and board officers, field trip chaperones, and classroom helpers. A natural pick for a teacher thanking their room parent at the end of a year, or for a PTA committee thanking its volunteers. For more ideas, see our Teacher Appreciation Week guide for PTA volunteers.
Matching shirt: the Room Parent Is My Jam Comfort Colors tee. For other school volunteers, see the Volunteering Is My Jam tote. See also all Room Parent gifts, volunteer appreciation gifts and Teacher tote bags.
When to buy: this is seasonal
Worth being direct: room parent gifting is concentrated in April, May, and early June. Volunteer Appreciation Week in April and end-of-year are the main moments. If you are planning a spring thank-you, order in April to be safe.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good gift for a room parent?
A tote. It is the item the role actually requires, and it gets reused the following year.
Is there a room dad version?
The design says “room parent” rather than room mom, so it works for anyone in the role.
Can a PTA order several at once?
Yes, and totes are the easiest group gift because there is no sizing. Email contact@talluladesignco.com, and allow two weeks in the spring rush.
Which size should I choose?
The gusseted 18″ x 15″ if it will carry party supplies; 15″ x 15″ for everyday use.
How should it be washed?
Cold machine wash and hang to dry.
