Can you believe that Summer is almost over? Crazy, right? With back to school season upon us I figure lots of you are getting ready to send the kids back to school. I wanted to share my favorite items that were always included in my back to school checklist and are things I still use as an adult for work.
Water Bottle // I am always drinking water. It helps to make sure I get all of my ounces in if I have a pretty water bottle to drink it out of. Super cute, right?
Tablet Case // If you or your child are going to back school and will be using a tablet you want to make sure that you have something to protect it with. I always go for something cute and stylish, with enough room to keep a pen or two in.
Lifelock Identity Theft Protection // LifeLock’s new product lineup consists of LifeLock Standard™ at $9.99 per month, LifeLock Advantage at $19.99, and LifeLock Ultimate Plus at $29.99.

Stationery // A cute stationery set is a must have for any sort of teachers notes you may need to send.
Pens // I am a pen freak, I like to have at least three with me at all times. They’re everywhere from my work desk to my purse.
Baby Lips // You definitely want to have some sort of lip balm, classrooms with forced heat or air are super drying. My lips would always get super chapped so this is a favorite of mine!
Notebooks // You need to be sure that you have notebooks, I have one for everything. I recommend a separate notebook for each class. You can find super stylish ones too!
Bookbag // I think this is an obvious one, right? You need something to hold all of the things you need for the day!
Post-It Notes // Need to write a quick note? Have to give yourself a reminder? Labeling a certain chapter of a book? You need all of the post-its! they make life so much easier!
Planner // I love August – August planners because they make starting at the beginning of the school year super easy!

I am OBSESSED with pens! It’s so not normal. When I worked in the doctors office all of the drug reps would bring pens and I’d grab extra to bring home.

Me too, and I sort of still do just because. LOL

I love all your choices. The only thing I ever liked about school was all the BTS shopping I got to do beforehand.
Don’t forget and cleaner and optic cloths.
