School Holiday Shop Gifts & Merchandise for PTO and PTA Shops

Running a holiday shop for schools is a big volunteer job. We try to make the buying part easy: categories that match how tables are laid out, most gifts at $5 or less, and holiday shop supplies like gift bags in the same order.

Younger grades tend to shop for parents and grandparents; older students add siblings, friends and teachers. Start with two to three gifts per student and lean on the busiest tables — Mom and Dad.

Unsold, ready-for-sale merchandise can be returned before January 15 of the following year with a return authorization. Tax-exempt schools can send an exemption certificate before ordering, and approved purchase orders are accepted on orders over $400.
