During the holidays, we often take the time to express our thanks and appreciation to key individuals who make our days go smoothly. We often show appreciation for newspaper delivery staff, mail carrier, childcare provider, teacher, caregiver, and more.

Do you take the time to thank your team, too?

It’s easy to fall into the belief that employees don’t need recognition because they earn a pay check all year. But showing your appreciation for their efforts can go a long way in terms of motivation, dedication, and engagement. Take the time to recognize every member of your team during the holidays. I guarantee you won’t regret it!

At Baudville, our team turns to recognition themes to make appreciation easy. We carefully craft sentiments, messages, and artwork that will express your thanks in a fun way. Our four new holiday recognition themes are full of employee recognition ideas that you can use for the entire team or each individual. Choose your favorite and plan your appreciation early for a low-stress holiday season.

Snowman: Thanks for Making Our Season Bright
Our most whimsical holiday theme, gifts from the Snowman collection are great for thanking teachers and peers. Present the snow globe photo frame, and the recipient will bring it out year after year as part of their holiday décor. It will serve as a lasting reminder of your appreciation! 



Snowflake: You’re One of a Kind
One of our most popular holiday recognition themes, Snowflake: You’re One of a Kind allows you to recognize your entire team while speaking to their individual contributions. One of my favorite employee recognition ideas for this theme is presenting the Spinner Ornament with the recipient's name engraved on the back.



Candy Canes: We Truly Appreciate You
The straight forward message of appreciation in the Candy Cane theme makes it an easy choice for recognizing a group of staff members or volunteers. Hand out the Twist Top Tumbler filled with peppermint candies for a sweet and thoughtful gift of appreciation.



Reindeer: You’re Essential to Our Team
This theme is designed to provide you with employee recognition ideas for your entire team. The team message acknowledges the importance of working together and gives you the perfect opportunity to talk about the major accomplishments you achieved as a team. Present each team member with a travel mug that they can use to keep their favorite beverages hot during the cold weather. Add a little something extra by including a couple packets of hot chocolate or a gift card to a local coffee shop.
