Top 5 Gifts For Teachers
1) Katamino Brain Teaser Puzzle
Katamino is a brain teaser puzzle with 500 engaging solo challenges that progress in difficulty level, so you’ll want to keep returning for more. Its board and colorful interlocking pieces are crafted with wood, making it a great looking and engaging way to play.
2) Screenie Sand Art
KB Sand Art: Screenie Sand Art - Charcoal
3) Book Themed Lightweight Scarf
Wrap a book lover (maybe that’s you!) in a literary scarf bearing the words from a classic piece of literature. The square scarves are handcrafted in Oregon with screen-printed text that’s heat-set to help prevent fading. Each scarf beautifully celebrates a book or poem in soft, durable, and lightweight cotton jersey.
4) Clip-On Smartphone Lens
Black Eye: Clip-On Smartphone Lens - Macro G4
5) Floating Flower Pin Vase
This floating flower vase creates the illusion of blossoms blooming straight up from the ground. The magic comes from brass pins in an acrylic tray that sits in the shallow ceramic vessel. Place a stem on a pin (the wider the better, like gerbera daisies—but not woody stems, like roses) and the flower will take in as much water as it needs—and stand tall in a striking display.
