So once you’ve gotten the hand sanitizer, the tissue boxes, and everything else on that classroom shopping list, it’s time to have a little fun with some colorful school supplies! We always recommend getting a little goodie or two for the kids that gets them more excited about going back to school, whether it’s a cute backpack charm, a personalized notebook, a pencil case with their favorite character, or even a set of #2 pencils that are just that much cooler than your standard issue yellow pencils.
With that, we had the best time putting together a rainbow of cool school supplies for boys and girls of all ages, in this next installment of the Cool Mom Picks 2016 Back to School Guide.
And speaking of cool, colorful school supplies, we’re so happy that this year’s guide is brought to you by our fantastic partner BIC, who’s celebrating handwriting through their Fight for Your Write campaign. Visit the site, sign the pledge to encourage handwriting at home like we do, and they’ll even donate a pen or pencil through AdoptAClassroom.org, to help support classrooms in need. What a cool way to help promote giving back and handwriting all at the same time.
Happy shopping!
