HELP, teacher gift ideas for a man

So for the past three years Jack has had female, teachers, teaching assistants and speech therapist. Now he has a male Kindergarten teacher, and I am so used to coming up with cute ideas for the woman.  I have a few that could work for both male and female.  The smores gift basket, the movie gift basket, the coffee set. but I am kind of at a loss for anything else. I like to give lots of gifts throughout the year, cause lets face it they have my child for about 37 hours a week they deserve presents.  His new teacher drives over an hour every day to get to his job.  I always like to give a pretty big gift at Christmas time. Here is my idea tell me what you think:
A personalized tote box or small storage bin with kind of like a car emergency kit in it
Here are things I would give him if you think this is a good idea, otherwise I am at a loss
Tide to go pen - for spilling things on clothes - we have all spilled coffee on the way to work, right
lint roller
de-icer
fix-a-flat
gas card
travel coffee mug
flash light or maybe a flash light key chain
snacks (cause his only meal all day is cafeteria food)
ice scraper

I can't think of anything else, ideas Please, need feedback

the female teachers are easy for me I was just having trouble with a male gift. I'll do themes, like spa, coffee, baking, driving, movies, kitchen, beauty. Sometimes I just give whatever I can throw together quickly. For instance for the female teaching assistant, I gave her instant coffee, a travel mug, chapstick, gum, lotion, high-lighters, paper clips, pencils, post-it-notes, snacks and a gift card for Target.

GREAT question. Oh, man. Noah might have a male teacher next year, so I need to get on it!
