The first week of school is no joke for any child – transitions can be tough. We’ve found these 6 items to be so useful in the fragile first days of school!
Write it out
Big Life Journal is all about social and emotional growth. For kids ages 6+, Big Life Journal offers guided activities to promote self confidence and esteem. It’s every parent’s dream for their child to be socially and emotionally strong! They also have a podcast, tv series, and online resources for parents.
Sleep Vibez
As bedtimes and wake up’s transition earlier, the Hibü is the perfect night companion for your child with its easy-to-use touch control. This soothing light is portable, has 10 levels of brightness, 3 auto shut-off timers, and 9 different LED colors with touch control.
Snack Rack
Kids can’t be in control of much beyond what backpack they want, so include them on the snack shopping the days before school starts. My son begged for Taki mini packs, and although I’d much prefer that be kale chips, for the first week of school – acquiescing is fine. Here are some of our nut-free snack go-to’s for school.
Masked Mama
Masks are the new normal for schools – love it or hate it (I love it – no more virus passing all winter!) so make sure to stock up on K-N95’s before the next wave makes them hard to find again. I auto ship ours from wellbefore so we never get an “out of stock” notice. Simply count the days of school and order that many! See why we’ve raved about these before.
Lap It Up
Keep the cozy summer vibes going for a little while longer with encouraging them to work on a lap desk in bed if that feels less stressful to them.
