Back to school is a thrilling time of year for many elementary school students. The prospect of embarking upon a new grade, making new friends, catching up with old ones, connecting with a new teacher and of course, learning new things is very exciting. One way to ensure that your scholar is ready to hit the ground running this school year is to equip them with the tools they will need for a strong start. Check out our list of must-have back-to-school items for elementary school students.
Hand Sanitizer
Elementary school classrooms are only one step above daycare when it comes to the presence of germs. Having a personal-sized bottle of hand sanitizer handy or even donating a larger one to the classroom stash will help to protect your grade-schooler from germy surfaces and will, in turn, cut down on the days of work you’ll have to miss because you’re home caring for a sick child.
