The Most Thoughtful Christmas Gifts For Teachers

Christmas is a time for us all to kick up our feet and relax, but no one deserves it more than teachers. There's no better way to unwind than enjoying a lovely cup of tea and a delicious hand-painted biscuit. It also doubles up as a lovely keepsake tin to store all their stationery long after the biscuits have been finished. A good one for a group to go in on - or there are lots of smaller options available on the Biscuiteers site too.

This 1.2L flask is lightweight and robust enough to take into a busy playground. It has an easy-grip handle and a stainless steel cap that doubles as a cup. The double-walled vacuum insulation keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for longer. We love this flask because it's not only perfect for Christmas but will see your child's teacher all the way to the summer holidays.
