It’s that time of year again! Students will be going back to school in the next few weeks! Help your children start the school year off on the right foot with these student must-haves.

1. Notebooks

Visit Target for all their notebook and school supply needs. Whether they are looking for single subject of five-subject notebooks you are sure to find them there. Plus, there are fun kid friendly notebooks or just fun trendy notebook styles to choose from.

2. Backpacks

Backpacks are a must for every student. Not only does it help them carry their books and homework back and forth from school and home, but it also is a great place for them to store items they need daily. You can find this fun Tune Squad backpack along with a variety of other styles at Spencer’s.

3. Hand Sanitizer

Hand Sanitizer is a must for every student heading back to school this year. Pick up these easy to use hand sprays from Bath and Body Works! They are small to fit perfectly in your backpack or your desk!

4. Shoes

New shoes are a must for kids going back to school. Make sure you pick up the correct size so they are comfortable to wear. A great sneaker from DSW is perfect for gym class and playing on the playground. Or pick up a cute slide that’s easy for the kids to slide into and go when they’re running out the door in the morning to make it on time to school. Plus, if you visit DSW this month and donate a pair of gently used shoes you will receive a $10 reward that you can use on your new pair!

5. Water Bottles

Make sure the kids stay hydrated throughout the school day with a Hydro Flask bottle from Dick’s Sporting Goods. Plus, the best part is, the bottle will keep their water cold all day long when you add ice to it!
