NextImg:Everything teachers should add to cart this Prime Day to stock their classrooms

Amazon Prime Day is basically the Super Bowl for bargain lovers — and if you’re a teacher, this is your halftime show, end-of-year bonus and self-care moment rolled into one.

Let’s hear it for the teachers. You’ve spent the year handing out Band-Aids, planning lessons at midnight and keeping 30 tiny humans alive and learning, so now’s the prime time to treat yourself and your classroom to the deals you totally deserve.

Hey there, Amazon Prime Day. Truthfully, classroom budgets are basically a myth. Most teachers are DIY-ing bulletin boards, buying our own whiteboard markers and sneaking school supplies into our grocery carts like it’s a covert mission. That said, Prime Day swoops in like a superhero, offering deep discounts on everything from classroom basics to those dream tools you’ve been eyeing for months (like that photo scanner and desk laminator).

And, don’t worry, you won’t need to elbow anyone in an aisle or drag a cart across a mega-store. You can shop all these deals from your couch, while bingeing that show you’ve been saving since parent-teacher conference season. Imagine snagging a class set of headphones, a cozy teacher chair or that fancy pencil sharpener that doesn’t jam every single time — all in your cozy pajamas.

But with thousands of deals flying by, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. That’s why we’ve done the scrolling (and the coffee-fueled clicking) for you. We’ve rounded up the actual best Prime Day deals for teachers. These are the tried-and-true treasures that will make your classroom life easier, cuter and way more fun.

After consulting with many full-time educators, this is the exclusive list of deals to grab. So, find your favorite mug, pull out that wishlist (also: make sure you have your Prime membership) and get ready to shop smarter — not harder.
