7 Must Have Back To School Products

 Soon the kids will be heading back to school. For most families, that brings excitement along with busy schedules. Check out some products that are perfect for back-to-school time.

 My boys will be heading back to school in a couple of weeks. They are excited but at the same time dreading the early morning wake up along with having homework. This year will be the first time since the boys started school that they will be attending separate schools. The older of the 2 boys will be in high school while the younger one will be in 8th grade. 

My youngest boys are close in age and do everything together. So attending separate schools will be tough for them. That brings back memories of when the oldest started school. The youngest son was so upset that his brother was gone for the day. My youngest did not want to do anything but watch TV all day.

 My youngest boys are still inseparable and even have the same friends. My boys are like twins as they are 16 months apart. The boys rarely fight with each other and where one goes, the other follows. So it will be strange to see my boys head off to different schools at different times of the morning. One son will catch the bus at 6:30 AM while the other will catch the bus at 8:30. What time do your kids leave for school?

Products that need to be on your back to school shopping list

 Back to school time always means shopping time. The kids need new clothes as they outgrew their clothes this past summer. My high schooler grew two sizes and the younger one is always growing out of his clothes. Their shoes are worn from playing at the park and new clothes always make heading back to school exciting. Then there is the long list of school supplies that the schools require. So I will be busy shopping before school starts.

Along with all the essential school supplies, I will be purchasing some other items that you will want to add to your school shopping list. These are items that you may have not thought of but they are ones that will make the school year better. So check out some of my favorite back-to-school items.

1. Dabbawalla Bags

Whether you are packing lunch for your child or for yourself to bring to the office, the Dabbawalla lunch bags are ones that you will love. These soft-sided lunch bags come in bold colors with cute designs. I think my favorite lunch sac is one that has a cupcake on it. These roomy lunch bags have so many great features that will make packing a school lunch fun. Your kids will have a hard time selecting their favorite bag for lunch.

 Dabbawalla Lunch Bags are crafted from a unique, synthetic foam textile that is degradable, recyclable, and environmentally friendly. The lunch bags are washable and feature a sturdy handle and two interior mesh pockets that fit a lunch, drink bottle, and snacks. I received the Apple Of My Eye lunch bag to review on Mom Knows Best. The colors are so bright and it will be perfect for my grandbaby as she heads off to preschool.

2. Mabel’s Labels

Kids tend to lose things at school. So it makes perfect sense to label their school items. Gone are the days of using permanent markers to label items like clothes and school supplies. This year make sure to purchase plenty of waterproof labels for back to school. Mabel's Labels makes labeling so easy and fun.

 These customize stick-on labels come in so many designs and sizes. Their Back To School label packs have plenty of labels so you can stick them on everything from pencils, backpacks, clothing, and more. My favorite labels are the shoe labels that help little kids put their shoes on the right feet. I also love these durable labels for traveling. I added my cell phone number to the labels so I can be contacted if it gets lost.

Mabel’s Labels personalized labels are durable, waterproof, and dishwasher, microwave, and laundry safe. These customizable labels give parents peace of mind knowing kids’ gear is properly labeled and easy to identify.

3. Persona Nutrition Immune Gummies

 No matter how hard we try to avoid germs, schools are the perfect breeding place for germs. So start your child's day with an Immune Support Kids gummy vitamin pack. These delicious gummies are a great way to boost your child's immune system. I love the individual packs as they can be grabbed out the door on the way to school.


 Persona’s gummy vitamin packs are developed for kids ages 4 to 12 and feature key nutrients that target specific health needs. The vitamins come in natural fruit flavors including orange, mango, mixed berry, raspberry, and grape. The Immune Support Kids Pack includes three distinct gummy vitamins including ~ Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and a dedicated immune blend that combines Zinc with B Vitamins.

 Persona also produces gummy vitamin packs for teens and adults. I love that their gummy line has zero added sugar. The gummy vitamin line includes vitamins to help teens focus, adults relax, and many others. The best part about gummies beyond the awesome taste is no water is required when you take them.

4. Puro Sound Labs Bluetooth Headphones

 If your child is doing online school or they need headphones for the classroom, then the Puro Sound Labs Bluetooth Headphones, need to be on your back-to-school list. These Bluetooth headphones not only help block outside noises but are designed to protect kid's eardrums with the limited volume range. The headphones come in many colors and are comfortable to wear.

 Puro Sound Labs' volume-limiting, Bluetooth headphones come also come with a built-in microphone that allows kids to actively participate in online learning, distraction-free. The one-touch Bluetooth pairs with iPhone, Android, and other compatible devices make for hassle-free listening, while a 30-foot range allows free movement! The wireless mode eliminates all dangers of entanglement in audio cables. Plus, you get 20 hours of battery life for music playback and 200 hours standby.

5. SpudLove Organic potato chips

 School time means packing lunches and after-school snacks. Pack some love into your child's school lunch with SpudLove organic potato chips. These delicious potato chips come in 5 amazing flavors like barbecue, sea salt, sea salt and vinegar, cracked pepper, and jalapeno. You will love the variety pack of 1 oz bags that are perfect for school lunches.

Farmer-owned and farmer-grown, SpudLove puts extra love into caring for the land to grow the highest-quality organic potatoes.

6. Success Rice

 I don't know about your life but once school starts for my boys, life gets busy. That means dinner is not always ready when my husband gets home from work. So Success Boil-in Bag rice makes dinner time a bit easier. This rice is so easy to prepare for a quick and easy meal. Even my teen boys can make the rice. The rice comes in many varieties from white rice to Jasmine rice. I am sure that you will find a family favorite rice. I love using the brown rice variety in my homemade veggie burger recipe.

 Success Boil-in-Bag Rice has a delicious flavor, making it an easy addition to any meal from breakfast to dessert. With no water-to-rice ratio needed, it’s a quick and easy delicious meal that is gluten-free, non-GMO, and free of MSG or preservatives.

7. Neato Robotic Vacuum

Whether your children are heading back to school or participating in an online school, you will want the Neato Robotic Vacuum. This unique D-shaped robot vacuum is a Back-to-School essential for maintaining a clean living/study space. Kids are messy and your schedule is busy. So let the Neato Robotic clean the floors.

The Neato D8 Robot Vacuum cleans up messes on hardwood, carpet, tile, and even throw rugs. The Neato robot app on your phone makes it super simple to program and control the vacuum. You can even control the vacuum through your Alexa or Google smart device.
