SCHOOL ESSENTIAL MUST-HAVES FOR SUMMER SCHOOL!

Looking for items that come in SUPER handy for your kids as they head off to school? Whether it's summer school or just school in general in the fall…I’ve got you covered!

These are some of my absolute favorite things that we have not only used throughout the school year but are also utilizing during summer school!

First things first… Of course I had to grab my favorite masks! If you guys have been following my YouTube channel for a while you already know how much I love these masks! They are amazing because they are the perfect size for Littles as well as the fact that they allow my kids to breathe and speak with ease and they are also adjustable as well as washable!

The other thing that’s amazing is the fact that they come in amazing variety of colors as well as designs, which is awesome because we are avid mask wearers in this family and why not make it fun by allowing your kids to pick up the mask design they want to wear? So we had a lot of fun these last couple years wearing our masks specific to holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, etc.! There are also other designs as well that are perfect for boys or girls in a variety of colors!

Another item that has been super super helpful when it comes to the kids wearing their masks are mask lanyards! I have absolutely loved using lanyards because it makes it so that the kids can take their masks on and off and still have them around their neck and not drop them on the floor! It’s also great for them to be able to take off and on when they need to have their snack or lunch at school and they don’t misplace it.

They are also adjustable too! :)

Wipes wipes and more wipes! I am a huge fan of antibacterial/disinfectant wipes and with the kids coming in and out of school and just generally coming in and out of public places, these are always something I keep on hand! I keep them in the car in my glove box and of course I always have one in my purse, in my gym bag, even my pockets just in case we’re on the go and we need it!

There are many varieties of brands that offer antibacterial wipes but I love the brands that offer the smaller size packages so they are super portable and you can stick them in your purse with ease!

Of course hand sanitizer is always on deck! You already know there are a variety of different brands that offer hand sanitizer but a quick tip if you’re looking for hand sanitizer that’s super inexpensive… Grab some from the dollar tree, or five below! You can also go to your local target and go to the dollar section and you will find a variety of different smaller sized kid sized antibacterial sanitizers that you can keep in the car, or in my case in our car caddies!

That brings me to the next item that I have absolutely loved using these last couple years! I purchased two car caddies to go behind the front seat as well as the passenger side for each of the twins! They each have their own and each is packed with their essentials for their day-to-day use.

So we keep them packed with hand sanitizer, antibacterial wipes, a hairbrush, extra masks, and any other things that you may need! There is also a really convenient spot on these particular car caddies that allow for a tablet to be placed inside and played with from in the pocket! These have been heaven sent!

It also comes as a set of 2 so it was perfect for us!

I have to share this because it’s absolutely adorable! I found the cutest umbrella/raincoat sets for the twins! They also come in a variety of different patterns so I let the twins select which one they wanted in particular!

And now with many schools not allowing parents to take their kids inside or pick them up from inside the school… There are many days we pick the kids up from outside the school in torrential downpours so it’s important to make sure that you’re prepared in any weather!

They are absolutely adorable and they’re super inexpensive and they come in a set!

Another item I have to feature are the twins' lunch boxes! They are perfect for lunch because they have little mini compartments as well as larger compartments you can put your items in but one of the best things about these lunch boxes is the fact that there is also a frozen insert that you can literally put in the freezer for an hour or two and insert within the lunchbox to keep their food items cold! (And your item stay cold for hours so it’s perfect!)

They come in a variety of colors so you can let your littles pick out whatever color they want! :)

These are some of our FAVORITE and most used items for school all year round so I hope these suggestions help! I will definitely share more with you as we approach the new school year!
