The summer holidays are sadly drawing to a close, and the back-to-school countdown has begun! While the kids are trying to squeeze in every last bit of fun, parents are starting to think about the preparations for the new school year. To help you get organised, we’ve put together a list of our top 5 back-to-school essentials to make sure your little ones are ready for their first day back.
1. The Perfect Backpack
First on the list is a durable and spacious backpack. A good backpack needs to withstand the rigours of the school year, from carrying heavy books to being thrown about in the playground. Look for one with adjustable straps for a comfortable fit and multiple compartments to keep everything organised. And, of course, a backpack with their favourite character on it will make going to school that much more exciting! Whether your child is a fan of Bluey, PAW Patrol, or can't get enough of Minecraft, we have a backpack to suit every personality.
2. Stylish & Sturdy Shoes
Next up are school shoes. With all the running, jumping, and playing that happens at school, a pair of comfortable and durable shoes is an absolute must. Look for shoes with good grip and support to keep your child’s feet happy and safe. We have a great range of school shoes that are both practical and stylish, so your little one can put their best foot forward.
3. A Fun Lunchbag
Make lunchtime their favourite part of the day with a fun and practical lunchbag. An insulated lunchbag will keep their food fresh until lunchtime, and choosing one with their favourite characters, like Stitch or a Disney princess, will make them the envy of the lunch hall. Our lunchbags are easy to clean and come in a variety of designs that your kids will love.
4. Socks and Underwear Drawer Refresh
It's a simple one, but an essential one! A fresh set of socks and underwear is a back-to-school necessity. With PE lessons and growth spurts, it’s always a good idea to stock up on these basics before the school year begins. We have a wide range of multipacks featuring popular characters, so you can fill up their drawers with socks and underwear they’ll be excited to wear.
5. Essential School Supplies
While we don’t sell them, no back-to-school checklist would be complete without mentioning stationery. A new pencil case filled with pens, pencils, and other essentials is a great way to get your child excited about learning. Once you’ve ticked off the bigger items on your list, don’t forget to pick up the stationery they’ll need for the classroom.
We hope this list helps you get ahead with your back-to-school shopping. We wish all the kids a fantastic new school year filled with learning, laughter, and fun!
Happy shopping!
