September is a month that is full of lots of activities, usually focused around going back to school.
Parents are busy making sure that the clothes and shoes fit. If they
don't you know there will be a shopping trip on the horizon. First
days back to school are so much fun because the students have been missing
some of their friends and maybe, just maybe, there will be a new friend or
two to be made.
This year most of the students and parents are especially happy that their
children will be returning to a "more normal" way of learning. No more
"home schooling" unless that is the choice you have made for your
children.
For the kids going back, it will seem even more special! Their old
classrooms have been empty for almost 2 years. Who knows what changes
have taken place while they were all being home schooled.
Personally, the memory I love the best was getting that new pencil case
and the pencils, pens, crayons or colored pencils that I would use almost
daily!
There is something really special about getting that brand new pack of
Crayola Pencil Crayons
and sitting with a brand new sharpener. While patiently sharpening
each crayon, I would daydream about how this year was going to be the best
year ever! It was almost like a child's meditation on
life!
For younger children it might be a whole new set of Crayola Crayons and
some new pencils. A
Pink Eraser
that hadn't yet been used was also a MUST HAVE for the new school
year.
I don't know why, but around this time of year I love going shopping for
school supplies, just nowadays we call them office supplies. It
still makes my heart go pitter patter when I see those Colored Pencils and
Markers of all kinds.
My guess is that most children will be looking forward to school this
year for many reasons. The parents are looking forward to this as
well. Running Zoom meetings with teachers is not the same as
being in the classroom. Getting back together with their friends and
socializing would be the first reason many are looking forward to Back to
School. And I'm sure the second reason is to pull out those brand
new pencils, pencil crayons and markers to do the first of many
assignments.
Keeping them all together and neat is another fun part of this Back to
School task and
pencil cases
have come a long way from the plain black top zipped pouch! Now you
can make a statement with how you carry your personal writing
implements. I happen to love this red one and it has a 5 star rating
as well. The others colors are also really neat!
Back to School is an adventure for the parents as well as the kids.
New gear is part of the fun. Making and seeing new friends and old
ones will always be a part of the Memories that our children will
cherish!
If the kids come home from school a little stressed, make sure you have a
color by numbers book for them, after all it is supposed to relieve
stress! You might want one for yourself too!
