Must Have School Items For Children

Submitted by: Melody N. Andes

As back-to-school season is approaching, it’s time to start thinking about a fashionable yet comfortable way to carry around school supplies and other necessities. While some of you may be starting school in a week or so, most schools won’t start for another month. That got to thinking about how to best shop for school supplies: how should we budget our money for the back to school supplies season?

As the school season is fast approaching, parents and guardians are busy budgeting and preparing the things needed by their school children. With the onset of recession and economic crisis that we experienced, it is difficult for parents to set aside the maximum budget needed to purchase all the things needed by school children.

Despite your limited funds, you can still provide them school supplies, but you can only buy things which are important or needed. Most often, parents are confused as to what school supplies to prioritize in their purchase. Which supplies should parents prioritized? Which items should you not buy? We all know that students have essential and non-essential things. We all know that each student has their corresponding needs and wants. We also believed that some things are essential to others while some are not. As your child grows older and as their grade advances, the school supplies they need also becomes lengthier, thereby making it hardier for parents to budget their money on the school needs of their children.

At this point in time, it would be wise to prioritized essential and important supplies and set aside non essential school supplies first.

Below are the essential school supplies which every student needs:

1. Backpacks or Bags Since it is where they store their school supplies and equipment, it is vital that you buy quality and durable bags which can withstand several uses and heavy baggage. There are lots of designs and styles to choose from which will rightfully fit the personality and needs of your child. However, base your decision on the durability of the product instead of the price and designs. Be sure to inspect the bags and assess if its zippers are durable, it has double stitching and has lots of storage compartments. Be sure that the bag is made from waterproof materials to protect it from different types of weather. It should also have security features to prevent theft or burglary.

2. Clipboards These are needed to give school children comfort in doing their school work and assignments.

3. Uniforms There are schools that require school uniforms from their students, while public schools do not require one from students.

4. Lunch box and Water Bottle These are important things that students must have because it is where you store their snacks and beverages.

5. There are also things which should be purchased in bulk because these are frequently used by students such as pencils, pens, notebooks, folders and erasers.

Now that you know which items are needed and essential to school children, you can now plan what items to buy and you can budget when you can buy non essential items.
