I’m so excited to welcome you to Back to School week at Simple as That! I’ve teamed up with some of my favorite brands to bring you fun + useful tips to make the transition back to school an easy one!
Back to school is an exciting time of year and though it’s met with anticipation, it can also get a little overwhelming as we ease back into regular routines and try to get everything done that we need to to prepare for the school year ahead.
But, back to school time doesn’t have to equal crazy and this week I’ll be sharing some ways to help keep things simple and stress-free.
My kids started school a couple weeks ago and after conquering the back to school shopping, the first thing we did was get to work organizing and labelling all their new gear! We used labels from Emily Press to keep track of all the kids school supplies. Using their cute, personalized labels on their clothing, backpacks, food containers and supplies gives me an added sense of security that all those school supplies I just paid for won’t get misplaced! 🙂
Emily Press has original label designs with personality and a modern look that suit a wide range of ages. My kids had a lot of fun picking out their labels and there truly was something for each of them – from my preschooler all the way up to my picky tween!
We labelled everything that will go to and from school along with the supplies that stay in their classroom and I know that those labels aren’t going anywhere! They’ve already been put to the test, especially the labels I used on their lunch boxes and water bottles. They’ve been through the dishwasher multiple times and they’re no worse for wear!
We used the First Class School Pack of labels which includes 12 waterproof Shoe labels, 40 dishwasher safe Slim labels and 48 peel & stick clothing labels that are laundry safe.
Emily Press Pencil labels are another great option to label all the markers, pens, pencils and art brushes for school. Their award-winning Preschool shoe labels are so great! They have the cutest designs and they are perfect for helping little ones get their shoes on the right feet!
We really loved labelling all our school supplies with Emily Press labels this year! It made things so quick and easy and the kids had a lot of fun sticking them to all their new supplies! It’s definitely a fun memory we’ll have of getting ready for school here in Arizona!
