Final week, James began preschool. The unhealthy information is I miss him as my fixed companion, however the excellent news is: he completely loves it. On the drive there within the mornings he tells me, “I’m so excited!!” Once I choose him up within the afternoons, he tells me the issues he did (“I washed my arms!!”). Daniel and I are so blissful and relieved that he’s adjusting properly to a brand new scenario, particularly after final 12 months and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I wished to make the transition as simple as attainable for him. I attempted my hardest to get all of the issues he would want (what the heck is a rain go well with?) whereas ensuring he’d like them, too. That meant virtually every thing was dinosaur themed, however a minimum of he was blissful to take his lunchbox to high school! Right here is among the nice choices I discovered!
My Favourite Finds for Preschool
Nike Flex Runner in recreation/royal with college pink
-AND-
Nike Flex Plus in smoke gray
James has worn these sneakers for a 12 months now and I can’t say sufficient good issues about them. They’re soft, breathable, tremendous versatile, and light-weight. The loops on the again and tongue make it really easy for him to drag on, too.
Slip-on Crocs
At his preschool, the children put on outside footwear and indoor footwear (that they depart at college). They really useful Crocs clogs for indoor footwear. James has been sporting them round the home for a number of weeks to get used to them and up to now they’re nice. Light-weight, simple to scrub, simple to slip-on, and the heel band helps them keep on.
Crocs rain boots
These are the rainboots he’s worn for the previous 2 years (in several sizes). Fully waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the perimeters are the most effective half. They make it really easy for James to drag on and off.
Pottery Barn Children Mackenzie Dino backpack (small dimension)
James loves dinosaurs and this backpack is roofed in them. It’s cute, water resistant, and sturdy, with padded shoulder straps. I feel the small dimension will serve us properly for a pair years. Oh, and we received it monogrammed together with his identify.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat
For some motive, I simply actually wished a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is lovely. It’s extra of a light-weight jacket, so maintain that in thoughts for those who’re in search of a fall jacket with somewhat extra heat within the lining.
CamelBak water bottle
Leakproof, spill-proof, BPA-free, and dishwasher secure
Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag
I pack this with a snack, fabric serviette, and James’s water bottle suits proper inside (he comes house earlier than lunch), however it would match a bento field or different lunch container and an ice pack!
Crayola Children Reusable Face Masks
James’s faculty asks that youngsters solely put on stable coloration masks (prints may be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful fabric masks has been an amazing possibility up to now. The masks are light-weight, machine-washable, the ear straps are adjustable, and there’s a bendable nostril clip inside the cloth to assist the masks keep safe. Bonus: there’s somewhat tag to write down his identify on every masks.
