Back To School Essentials

  1. Refillable water bottles are a must every school year.
  2. Backpacks and Lunch Pails are a fun way for kids to express their personalities and interests! These ones from pottery barn are our favorite! They are high quality and we love that you can personalize them with the child’s name or initials.
  3. Speaking of lunch a bento-style lunch box is a must this year! We have always used the Yumbox and absolutely love it.  Leakproof and large enough for the hungry eater! These make it easy for your child to eat independently without needing help opening things from staff. Here are some of our bento-style lunch ideas!
  4. Shoes that are velcro, slip-on, or no tie will be a great choice for this coming school year.
  5. Label everything!!! Seriously though you know you’re always sending a jacket with your child and at the end of the day, it seems to be missing.  These labels are awesome and durable! Our personal favorite.
  6. Library Card! Library cards are free and perfect to help kids at all reading levels!
