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 pleased and relieved that he’s adjusting nicely to a brand new scenario, particularly after final 12 months and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I needed 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 swimsuit?) whereas ensuring he’d like them, too. That meant virtually all the pieces was dinosaur themed, however no less than he was pleased to take his lunchbox to high school! Right here is a few of the nice choices I discovered!
My Favourite Finds for Preschool
Nike Flex Runner in recreation/royal with college crimson
-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 tug on, too.
Slip-on Crocs
At his preschool, the children put on outside footwear and indoor footwear (that they go away in school). They beneficial Crocs clogs for indoor footwear. James has been sporting them round the home for a couple of weeks to get used to them and up to now they’re nice. Light-weight, simple to wash, 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). Utterly waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the perimeters are the very best half. They make it really easy for James to tug on and off.
Pottery Barn Youngsters Mackenzie Dino backpack (small measurement)
James loves dinosaurs and this backpack is roofed in them. It’s cute, waterproof, and sturdy, with padded shoulder straps. I feel the small measurement will serve us nicely for a pair years. Oh, and we bought it monogrammed along with his identify.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat
For some motive, I simply actually needed a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is lovely. It’s extra of a light-weight jacket, so hold that in thoughts should you’re searching for a fall jacket with a little bit extra heat within the lining.
CamelBak water bottle
Leakproof, spill-proof, BPA-free, and dishwasher protected
Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag
I pack this with a snack, material serviette, and James’s water bottle matches proper inside (he comes dwelling earlier than lunch), however it’ll match a bento field or different lunch container and an ice pack!
Crayola Youngsters Reusable Face Masks
James’s faculty asks that youngsters solely put on strong colour masks (prints could be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful material masks has been a fantastic 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 a little bit tag to write down his identify on every masks.
