It’s hard to start thinking about back to school time when we are trying to soak up as much summer as possible, but our kids go back the 13th of August. Travel plans later this month and into early August make it necessary to purchase school supplies now.

I know others have a similar situation, so I wanted to share my back to school supply list.

I printed the back to school supply list from our school district’s website a couple of nights ago.  It is the same format as it has been in years past; making it easy for disturbing to the masses.  It is divided by grade with a paragraph of the supply requirements under each grade.

I don’t know about you, but that format does not work for me.  I need a list…start at the top and work my way down system; checking off as I go.  

I put together this back to school supply list to help prepare for my school supply shopping trip.  I hope you find it helpful.

Money saving tips: Before you start shopping for back to school supplies, shop your house.  Do you have supplies left from last year that were not used?  Do you have supplies that older siblings have used that can be passed down (nap mat)? Do you stock up on items and have them stored (Kleenex)?  Does your child have items they can reuse from last year (pencil box)?
