Flairs are the felt tip pens teachers hoard: a medium point that writes smoothly on any paper, ink that does not bleed through a worksheet, and a cap that keeps them from drying out in a desk drawer. The 24-count set is the full color range, which matters when grading in green instead of red is a whole philosophy.
It is the end-of-term thank-you for a teacher, the Christmas gift from a class, the small present for a coworker who color codes everything, and a graduation gift tucked into a card for someone starting a planner habit.
Twenty-four pens, assorted colors, in a box that doubles as a tray. They are not refillable and that is fine at under a dollar a pen. Pair it with a notebook and it looks like a real gift; alone it is the best twenty dollars a teacher gets all year.
