Teaching a room of little minds takes a lot of sparkle, and this shirt says it in coral-pink script.

The word Sparkle is the star of this teacher shirt, sized up in script above a short quote about teaching little minds. It's a relaxed women's tee for school days, staff meetings and thank-you gifts.

The design: a five-line quote with a ribbon, an arrow and a swoosh

The quote is stacked in five lines. It starts with IT TAKES A in coral-pink condensed capitals, with short burst lines on either side like a little cheer. Below it, LOT OF sits in white capitals between the two tails of a white ribbon banner. Then comes the big word, Sparkle, in a flowing coral-pink script, followed by TO TEACH in white condensed capitals with a white feathered arrow running straight through the letters. The last line, Little minds, is written in coral-pink script and underlined by a white double swoosh.

Everything is printed in just coral-pink and white, which gives the quote a clean, bright look against a darker shirt. The sparkle in this design is the word itself: no stars, glitter or apples are drawn, and no school supplies. The print sits on the front, centered on the chest and sized medium-large so it reads from across a classroom.

A light, relaxed women's tee for school days

• Lightweight 4.2 oz/yd² (142 g/m²) jersey that stays comfortable from the first bell to the last
• Finely spun cotton keeps the fabric smooth against your arms; the solid colors are all cotton, and the heather shade has polyester blended in
• A relaxed cut with room to reach, bend and write on the board
• A classic crew neck
• Stitched with a seam up each side, so the shirt hangs with some shape
• The fabric has already been shrunk once, so washing it changes the fit less

Who it's for

Classroom teachers, teaching assistants, tutors and anyone who has spent a school year coaxing curious kids along. Wear it on a regular school day, to a staff meeting, on a weekend of class prep or a school-supply run. It also suits teacher appreciation week, the last day of school or a holiday thank-you for a favorite teacher.

Quick answers

Is there glitter or shine in the print?

No. Sparkle is a word here, written in large script. The design has no glitter, stars or other sparkly drawings, only the lettering and a few simple lines.

Which shirts show the print best?

The lettering is light and bright, so it stands out most on darker shirts. On a mid-tone shirt some of the words look a little softer, though they stay easy to read.

How do I choose a size?

It's a women's tee with a relaxed cut. Compare the length, width and sleeve numbers in the size guide next to the size options with a shirt you already wear and like.

Is there anything on the back?

No. The back is plain, and the whole quote sits on the front.

How do I wash it?

Machine wash cold and inside out, then tumble dry low or hang dry. Skip bleach and high heat.
