Flasks and test tubes, beakers bright,
Your world is complex, full of zest.

And every test turn out the best!

With joy that's pure and through and through
And happiness all through the year!

Gift ideas for a chemist

A chemist will love themed gifts: a periodic table mug, a molecule-building kit or board game, a book on the history of science, good lab goggles or a conference voucher. Flowers make the greeting festive: a bright multicoloured bouquet recalls colourful reactions in flasks, while classic red roses suit a colleague or teacher.
