Bunny girl is a week old 1st grader. And her first week couldn’t have gone any better.
She was all set to start a new year, even a week prior to school began. I think that helped ease the jitters in a big way.
Now I know most of you already have kids that have started a new school year… but I do know there are a good number who are yet to start.
This will help you get all organize what you want in the school uniforms, backpacks and lunch kit departments.
Uniform shopping…
I did all my uniform shopping online with French Toast…the online home for the best selection of quality, kids school uniforms.
I picked up Bunny girl’s pique red polo, her navy pants with adjustable waist snappers, navy skorts, black shoes and a navy sweater at this one store.
I’ve shopped with French Toast for over a year now to know that their quality, prices and customer service are definitely worthy of my loyal patronage.
(Bunny girl’s sets from Kinder were in such awesome condition, a friend of ours asked if she could use them for her daughter this year!)
Oh and if you’re wondering whether the collection of girls school uniforms over-rides that of the boys… I urge you to hop over to see how extensive the picks for boys school uniforms are.
I definitely know where I’ll be shopping for Bunny Boo’s uniforms three years from now!
Backpack shopping…
This year I was introduced to the new line of backpacks from Coleman (Yep! The online suppliers for all things outdoor!)… MadDog Gear!
Since Bunny girl’s backpack from last year is still a perfect size for her 1st Grade needs, we decided to skip looking for something appropriate for her and instead looked around at what one would pick up for a middle school, high school or college student.
This Deluxe Bungee Backpack fit the bill…
A backpack with over 3 compartments, 6 pockets and a laptop compartment is definitely what I’d term a useful backpack!
And synonymous to the Coleman brand of products, this backpack is sturdy, durable and price-worthy.
As a new line, the choice of backpacks is few. But judging by the quality of the backpack received, I’m sure I’d re-visit to buy hopeful fun, kid-centric designs over the coming year…
Oh and shipping on any backpack is free!
Lunch kit shopping…
The Thermos brand is the brand I pick when it comes to shopping for lunch containers and flasks.
The brand has proven its worth over the years. And their fun-tainers and flasks are recommended choices by parents all over the world.
I didn’t know they had a choice of lunch kits, till Bunny girl was sent an adorable, house-shaped Hello Kitty novelty lunch kit.
I love that the 8.5″ x 4.5″ x8.25″ “house” is roomy enough to fit a lunch box, her water flask and a fruit or a mini snack container. (…and tissues, cutlery and snack packs)
It’s easy to wipe down and dries quickly…
and most importantly is 100% PVC free.
A definite winner!
Great picks, right?
Awesome!
Guess what we’re giving away?…
A 140$ Gift Pack that will include-
- 2 tops and 1 bottom of choice from French Toast
- 1 MadDog Gear backpack of choice and
- 1 Hello Kitty or Barbie lunch kit (if you win this for a girl) or a Ninja lunch kit (if you win this for a boy)

My favorite momennt was my granddaughter’s first day of school because she was so excited about finally going to school.
I cried when my children and grandchildren went but happy to see them have a good time and how proud they are of the things they make and grades they receive. I am proud of all of them!
I love the excitement of the first day of school! The new uniform, new shoes and new backpacks!

I know I SAY I hate it because the bedrooms are wiped out after, but I like when the kids (esp girls) change out their clothes a half dozen times trying to find JUST the right thing to wear. It starts young and doesn’t change a bit even as a high schooler. Cracks me up!
My granddaughters excitement over her first day of kindergarden at the same school her brother & sister attend
Seeing DD all dressed up for the first day with her backpack and lunchbox!
my favorite back to school memory is my mom taking me back to school shopping! it was something we enjoyed doing together just us every year!
