The cutest and best pencils to start your preschool/kindergartener on. They are triangle shaped and short so it’s easy for their little fingers to hold onto while they strengthen their finger muscles. Great quality as well!

Another cute but super helpful item. These markers are short for your kindergarteners little hands making it easy for them to use. They are also thin so they can hold onto them better while tracing, writing, or drawing.

The first crayons I started my son on and we loved them. The thick crayon makes it harder for kids to break and is easy to hold onto when they’re just learning how to hold crayons or pencils. Vibrant and fun to use!

On the go, easy to clean, practice book. I loved this book to take on long car rides to keep my son busy. It’s dry erase so he can easily wipe away to fix a mistake.

A great Phonics learning item. The flashers make it so easy to take anywhere and get a quick lesson in. We’ll be focusing on phonics a lot this year so this will be a staple for us!
