After 18 years of pregnancy and child rearing these have been my favorite baby items. Some things are more expensive than others. However, these items have lasted YEARS in comparison to other items. I believe I have tried most items on the market wasting unnecessary amounts of money on things that were never used or lasted. Plus, they resell very well, excluding bottles.

As a mom of littles who are in preschool and elementary school, I’ve compiled a list of essentials that are practical but don’t compromise any quality!
Back-to-school shopping falls apart in the same place every year: you buy the backpack in July, then spend all of August realizing you still need a lunch box that does not leak, a water bottle that survives the bus, and headphones the school actually approved. So this is the whole run organized by what you are still missing. Backpacks covers the classics that last more than one year, like the JanSport SuperBreak for big kids and the Simple Modern Pixar and PAW Patrol packs sized for preschoolers who want their own bag. Lunch Boxes is the leak-proof compartment styles, Bentgo Kids and the insulated OmieBox UP, so you can pack a hot and a cold thing in the same box. Water Bottles has the Owala FreeSip everyone asks about plus the smaller Simple Modern and THERMOS FUNTAINER sizes that fit a kid backpack pocket. Supplies is the big Crayola sets, the 100-count Super Tips and the 140-piece art case, which cost less per marker than restocking twice. Teacher Must-Haves is the highlighters and classroom basics that end up on every supply list. And Toddler Naptime is the Wildkin nap mat for daycare and preschool drop-off. The kid headphones here are volume-limited to 85dBA, which is the spec most schools require and the one people miss. Prices run from a few dollars for markers up to the backpack and bento buys, so you can fill one gap or do the whole list in a single order. If you are searching for back to school supplies, the best kids backpacks, leak-proof lunch boxes, kids water bottles, or school-safe headphones, start here and save it now, because the popular backpack colors and lunch box styles sell out first every August.
I’m a visual person, and when it comes to getting ready for back-to-school season, I love seeing everything laid out in one place.

These are things I’ve either used, plan to grab, or saved from trusted sources online. Some are shoppable, some are just inspo—but all are here to help you prep without stress. Let’s make this school year the most organized (and stylish) one yet.

Our family Christmas list as a moderately scrunchy and minimalist family living in 800 square feet. We are looking for things that are practical, make sense in our small space, and have the potential for longevity:)
Our daughter and nieces and nephews are older now, 21 of course :) so it was fun to try and celebrate with them but we also know they'll be out testing the water with friends and later after the birthday, they'll slowly go out if they aren't already. With these gifts, it wasn't only ‘fun props’ that I wanted to give but other items for them to be safe during these times, some for comfort and some for play. All these are good for any age and for anyone with older goods, good luck! Happy 21st 😍

when I was at college, my mom would always send me care packages- usually on holidays, but especially when I was sick. these are some things she would send, and I really appreciated! some items were necessities that I would never personally think to buy, and some were just things to make me smile 🥹 I always loved getting a package from a loved one at college, or just when I live long distance. so if you’re seeing this, its your sign to send someone you love a care package 💌
Finding the best baby products is a journey. From hours of googling and watching TikTok videos, I started my journey of motherhood confident on what products I thought I wanted.
