So nursery is nut free. I usually give them a multi pack of chocolates but can't as they may contain nuts help! What do I give them!

I've mentioned this on a couple of threads now, boxes of sachets of coffee. Always gone down really well.

Excellent! Where do I find these? Do you mean fancy instant ones?

Speaking as a nursery worker, tea bags and biscuits are always a hit!

Ah right thought I'd have to find a Starbucks or something. Thanks everyone!

Add some tea bags and hot chocolate for the non coffee drinkers.

Don't do fruit! They'll probably end up taking home whatever is going to go off over Christmas. Stick to tea, coffee, biscuits.

Nah can't be bothered with that. They'll just have to have some of whatever everyone else is giving

Wax melts? I did it last year and it went down really well.

Not sure I understand this thinking. You're buying a present to express thanks, how hard can it be to pick up some nice tea bags and hot chocolate when out shopping?

I'm not made of money. I'll buy coffee sachets instead of chocolate. I'm not going to try and cater for all of them that's ridiculous. If they don't like coffee they don't have to drink it.

I think these would be great for gifting:

I personally have these, more for daily thing, and it's very nice: https://www.google.co.uk/shopping/product/13729363864009284194?lsf=seller:8225840,store:18095607461018040100,lsfqd:0&prds=oid:14959642550668595113&q=coffee&hl=en&ei=G4Z7ZdDBEL3MhbIPs7-PqA8&sts=14&lsft=gclid:Cj0KCQiA7OqrBhD9ARIsAK3UXh1AMnNZQLlqiAAUBA_LlQZ9sMYW8OYR2DWb05Z7d6CI9YXldQExMC0aAkr2EALw_wcB,gclsrc:aw.ds

@geckofrog glad you liked the idea! Yes, I just bought multiple boxes from a supermarket. I had staff come specifically to the door to say thanks! I also say this from the other side as a nursery nurse who's taken time out to have her own children.
