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!!” After I decide him up within the afternoons, he tells me the issues he did (“I washed my fingers!!”). Daniel and I are so blissful and relieved that he’s adjusting nicely to a brand new state of affairs, particularly after final 12 months and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I needed to make the transition as simple as doable 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 the whole lot was dinosaur themed, however a minimum of he was blissful to take his lunchbox to high school! Right here is a number of the nice choices I discovered!
Slip-on Crocs At his preschool, the youngsters put on out of doors footwear and indoor footwear (that they depart at college). They really useful Crocs clogs for indoor footwear. James has been carrying them round the home for a couple of weeks to get used to them and to date 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 numerous sizes). Fully waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the edges are the perfect half. They make it really easy for James to tug 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 nicely for a pair years. Oh, and we acquired it monogrammed along with his title.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat For some cause, I simply actually needed a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is lovely. It’s extra of a light-weight jacket, so maintain that in thoughts when you’re searching for a fall jacket with a bit of extra heat within the lining.
Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag I pack this with a snack, material 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 colour masks (prints could be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful material masks has been an incredible possibility to date. The masks are light-weight, machine-washable, the ear straps are adjustable, and there’s a bendable nostril clip throughout the material to assist the masks keep safe. Bonus: there’s a bit of tag to jot down his title on every masks.
