The Best Unusual Gifts for Teachers

It’s that time again – whether it’s Christmas or the end of the school year – when your thoughts turn to…

Gifts for teachers! What to get, how much to spend, how to be different from the rest?

Teachers are awesome, and although sometimes you might think they deserve a bottle of something for what they have to do; we’re here to help you think outside the times table grid, to take you into unchartered geographical territory and make you the top of the class with regards to your unique choice of present.

A fun choice is our Collective Nouns range. What are ‘Collective Nouns’ we hear you cry? A collective noun is a word that refers to a set or group of animals, people, or things.

So whilst a collective noun for pupils is of course a class, there are definitely some more unusual collective nouns around. For instance, did you know that:

 > A group of Goldfinches is called a ‘Charm?’

 > Owls like to hang around in a ‘Parliament’

 > Foxes ‘Skulk’?

 > And that a group of Puffins can be classed as a ‘Circus’? Quite apt we think!

Our selection of ideas range from £2.50 to £25 depending on your budget with key-rings, coasters and fridge magnets at one end through to shopping bags, aprons and cushions at the other.

And should you know that your child’s teacher loves dogs, birds or animals we’ve even got specialisations in those areas.

We think your kids’ teachers will love them.
