Keep things simple for school. And Don’t over spend. I think moms get more excited for stuff then the kids half the time 😆

Find ones easy to clean. Don’t suggest a straw. Plastic seems to break or leak often. I find the squeeze ones leak often also.

They always want the 2 inch or 3 inch binder. With dividers. The ones with zippers are great for kids. Little more Money but they don’t lose things falling out. And they have places for pens, and pencils.

They don’t need scientific until later years. So don’t spend too much. There is also calculator on their computers.

If your kid is a snacker and not huge fan of sandwiches these bento boxes are great. Keeps stuff fresh and separates the food so thing like crackers don’t get sogggy.
