Mugs of Authority

By Alex in Food & Drinks, Gadget, Pictures on Dec 13, 2008 at 2:26 pm


Mark Champkins of the Quirky design studio Concentrate asked school teachers their most commonly used phrases … and then print them on these "Mugs of Authority"

Teachers have no need to shout themselves hoarse, repeating the same phrases over and over – now they just need to point at their mug!

(The phrases are: Put That Down, Stop Doing That, and Don’t Mess About.)

Genius! Link

    No teach! You "put that down" and teach!

    Kids can learn passive aggressiveness from that!

    Now that I have a child, I think I use "Stop doing that!" more than any other phrase. Great mugs.

    Only works if you've taught them to read first.
