2016 Educator Gift Guide

I have a tremendous amount of respect for educators, and this gift guide has a different tone than the others. In addition to lots of funny shirts, I have also included lots of classroom supplies. With limited budgets and caring teachers, teachers buy supplies for their classrooms out of their own pockets all year long. If you have a teacher in your life, whether it's a family member or your kids' teachers, consider picking up a pack of sticky notes or a box of pens. They're sure to appreciate it, and your gift will help every one of their students as well.
