Sipping on tea is always a good idea! Your Ninongs and Ninangs will appreciate a bottle of artisanal tea leaves from The Tea Source MNL. Not only is tea relaxing, but it also has many health benefits like helping lower blood pressure.
Nut Butters
Here’s a little sweet treat with less the guilt! These all-natural homemade nut butters from Rose’s Kitchen can be enjoyed with oatmeal, over toast, on pancakes, or with fruits. They also have peanut butter that is sugar free, so this should be a delicious and healthy choice for your principal sponsors!

A Bottle of Wine

Essential Oils
Give the gift of calm and relaxation through Pili Ani’s essential oils made with a blend of pure pili oils. They have a Breathe Easy blend which helps relieve allergies, and a Stress Away blend to help reduce tension in the body.
