It’s so hard to believe it’s already back to school time. My daughters will be going back to school on August 26th. I know some have already started school, and others haven’t yet. Whether they have started or not, I know there are always lists of supplies to get for the kids. I have done a lot of my back to school shopping already for my kids.

Amazon has always been a great place to get my back to school shopping done. They always have everything I need, and I get to shop right at home and have everything shipped to me. There are a few items that I always shop for each year because they are some of my favorite brands and my kids love them. Amazon has a great list of Happy School Year products on their site right now, and it’s got a lot of great school supplies and more!

I really like the kids edition tablet because it’s already got some built in games, books and such for them. It’s got PBS Kids, Disney, Nickelodeon and more! Those are some of my kids favorites too, so it’s perfect for them. A lot of these games are really educational too, so I love that about this. I also really love that they have books on it as well. That way they can read too.

I love having headphones for my kids that are safe for listening. Ones like these are great for younger kids so that the volume isn’t up so high. It can help protect their ears from the high blast of volume. I really love that they made these because my kids are younger, and they work great for them.

My kids love to pick out their very own notebooks, and they usually go for the more fancy ones. This daily notebook was a great choice because I love the words on the front. That way they can always look at it and be reminded to always be themselves.

My youngest daughter is in love with this pencil case. She really likes that you can unzip it all the way around. She is excited to use this for school this year too. She’s been so excited to use it for some time now. It’s very beautiful too with the colors and the whole overall design. We sure love this pencil case!

S’well Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle

My daughters always bring a water bottle to school, and the teachers always encourage it. That way when they’re thirsty while they’re in class, they can just get a drink of water from their bottles. This water bottle from S’well is great because it can stay cool for up to 12 hours. That’s perfect for my daughters since they’re in school for about 7 hours. That way it will keep their water cold all day while they’re in school. It’s also a very beautiful bottle and extremely sturdy too.

AmazonBasics Everyday School Laptop Backpack

One thing all students will need in school, is a backpack. I love buying my kids backpacks that are very well sturdy. I’m not about the fancy designs because they don’t usually hold up very well. I’m more looking for something that is going to last them all school year. I’ve had the cheaper backpacks with designs and I’ve honestly had to buy a few throughout the year because they’d always rip on my kids. We have since decided to go with a better backpack that is actually going to last them all school year. This backpack is even water-resistant, so that would be really helpful for my kids.

• Water-resistant, lightweight school backpack for everyday use; also works well as an all-rounder, carry-on, or daypack
• Spacious main compartment with double-zipper closure; padded pocket for a laptop or tablet
• Padded adjustable shoulder straps for optimal comfort
• Made of 100% polyester for strength; 15L volume; Blue color

These are all just a few of my favorite items from Amazon for back to school. They have so many amazing items on Amazon. It’s one of my favorite stores to shop online as well. It’s nice to be able to shop online and find everything you need for school all in one place without having to leave your home. Make sure to check out Amazon for all your back to school needs.
