Caffeine Chemical Formula Coffee Mug – Great Gift Idea for the Coffee Lover! I think this would look great on a biology teacher’s desk! It would be a great conversation starter too.

Unusual Gift Idea: Giant Microbe Plush Toy!
This stuffed animal is based on the MRSA virus. If MRSA isn’t your thing, you can choose from a large selection of these microbes… They have an E. Coli one, a Common Cold Bug, Flesh Eating Bacteria, and more… Some people buy these as gag gifts for scientists, teachers, nurses, students, etc. Other people buy them as educational gifts for classroom props or for their kids… I like them.
More Soft Microbes An artistic representation of what chickenpox virus would look like if it were big and had eyes!
This is E. Coli bacteria. These stuffed “microbes” are cute and could be good classroom decorations or even teaching aids.
Have a hurt tummy? This might be the culprit.

Audubon Singing Bird Clock – 12 Different Bird Songs – one for each hour! Great gift idea for a nature lover. It’s a great way to enjoy unique bird songs at every hour. There is a light sensor so that the birds stay quiet when it’s dark.
Homemade Cookies are a Yummy Gift Idea! Make them shaped like atoms, beakers, flasks, and test tubes! You can follow a traditional cookie recipe or use an off-the-shelf cookie mix. Sprinkles and frosting can turn these odd shaped cookies into something pretty neat. Put some sprinkles in the bottom of the flask for the precipitate… The ideas are endless.
