It’s important to give a child’s favorite teacher something extra special. With so much of children’s time being spent in the classroom, talented educators play an immeasurable role in shaping the great minds of America’s future. On top of investing time and patience, according to Money.com, teachers are spending $1.5 billion annually of their own money on school supplies with the average teacher spending $500. Great teachers who go above and beyond are remembered for a lifetime and zulily wants to thank them in a major way.

If a child’s teacher deserves special recognition, parents can nominate them on zulily by sharing stories of inspiration, kindness or coolness. It doesn’t matter what grade level or school, zulily wants to know why they are so special and deserve to be honored.
