Well that was a fast summer! School officially starts back for Chris this coming week and that means back to our normal schedule. However you feel about summer being nearly over, I for one am super excited about getting back to normal life. The summer was amazing but I thrive on a routine. George will be 3 in October and this year I am going to be making a conscious effort to do more preschool activities with him. Babbleboxx has made that so much easier with this fabulous box of goodies. He and I are ready to jump into a new school year. Having fun will be the goal! Let’s dive into this fabulous box.
The first step to enjoying any bright sunny day is a great pair of sun glasses. This is where Zenni can help you as a mom. They have fabulous eyewear for not only you but your child. George is a big fan of wearing sun glasses. Zenni has a great selection of kids eyewear that is sure to send your child back to school in style. These frames may look like that are not doing much but they are doing A LOT! The lens in these glasses have UV + blue blockers that protects the eye from harmful light. With the rise of iPads and computers being used in schools at a young age, these glasses are great to pack in your child’s backpack each day.
No backpack is complete with out a great pair of scissors. George is getting to the stage now that he really is curious about how scissors work. He always gravitates towards them. I hope this year he can develop the coordination to begin learning how to cut. Westcott has you covered in the scissor department. These Titanium Bonded scissors are the most popular around the world, earning them the title “The World’s Favorite Scissor”. I am sure we will get a lot of use out of the kids scissors this school year as we begin cutting out various shapes and George learns how to hold and use them. Find out more about this awesome product here.
If George enjoys anything it is coloring. He will literally sit at the table and draw and color for nearly an hour. Over the summer he has started naming all the colors and he was so so excited to see the gorgeous products from BLOT. The Mini Gel pens are perfect for his little hand. BLOT’s Ombre Gel Coloring Pens and Mini Highlighters are fun back to school essentials. Since Chris is heading back to grad school, I am making sure to place the Mechanical Pencils and Retractable Ballpoint Pens in his back pack. 🙂
No back to school haul is complete without a new outfit. OshKosh B’gosh has been dressing kids for years. I can still remember a few of my favorite OshKosh outfits as a kid. When a brand can dress you and your child, you know they are doing something right! OshKosh boy clothes has always been one of my go to brands. They have excellent quality and are durable for tumbles outside. George received these adorable camo pants and gray and navy hoodie. I think he looks darling and his fall wardrobe is off to a great start. 🙂 Make sure to check out OshKosh for 20% off purchase of $40+ (in store code: 038222 or online code OKBG3549) This offer is valid through September 30, 2018. Certain exclusions apply.
If you are on the hunt for great hair care products for kids look no further. Snip-its is a natural kids styling line that will have your child’s bedhead tame in a matter of seconds. I used the Morning Miracle Mousse in Georges hair and it worked wonders. It is comes out like a spray but is alcohol and aerosol free. Snip-its has created a product that makes fixing your child’s hair so much easier with a lot less fuss. That right there is worth it! I am looking forward to trying the Wacky Wax as a gel alternative to keeping G’s hair in place all day. He sure has a mop of it!
Finally let’s chat about the school lunchbox. We all know as moms that what we put inside can either help your child thrive or crash. So many lunch box choices are full of sugar and nasty items that do not give our kiddos the nutrients they need to stay alert and awake. Sprout Organic Curlz (made from chickpeas and lentils) and Crispy Chews (made from crisped whole grain rice and fruit and veggies) give my child the familiarity of lunch box favorites without all the bad stuff. As I am writing, George has already devoured 2 packs of the Curlz. He gives a thumbs up! Sprout products are made from USDA certified, non-GMO organic ingredients. Now these are organic kids snacks you can feel good about giving your child.
How will your send your child back to school? These products are a great start to any back pack this new school year.
