Final week, James began preschool. The dangerous 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 choose him up within the afternoons, he tells me the issues he did (“I washed my palms!!”). Daniel and I are so comfortable and relieved that he’s adjusting effectively to a brand new scenario, particularly after final yr and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I wished to make the transition as straightforward as doable 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 nearly all the things was dinosaur themed, however no less than he was comfortable to take his lunchbox to highschool! Right here is among 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 yr now and I can’t say sufficient good issues about them. They’re comfortable, breathable, tremendous versatile, and light-weight. The loops on the again and tongue make it really easy for him to drag on, too.
Slip-on Crocs
At his preschool, the children put on out of doors footwear and indoor footwear (that they depart in school). They really useful Crocs clogs for indoor footwear. James has been sporting them round the home for a number of weeks to get used to them and up to now they’re nice. Light-weight, straightforward to scrub, straightforward 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). Utterly waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the perimeters are the perfect half. They make it really easy for James to drag 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 believe the small measurement will serve us effectively for a pair years. Oh, and we received it monogrammed together with his title.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat
For some cause, I simply actually wished a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is lovable. It’s extra of a light-weight jacket, so preserve that in thoughts for those who’re on the lookout for a fall jacket with a little bit extra heat within the lining.
CamelBak water bottle
Leakproof, spill-proof, BPA-free, and dishwasher secure
Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag
I pack this with a snack, material serviette, and James’s water bottle matches proper inside (he comes residence earlier than lunch), however it’s going to 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 stable colour masks (prints will be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful material masks has been an awesome possibility up to now. The masks are light-weight, machine-washable, the ear straps are adjustable, and there’s a bendable nostril clip throughout the cloth to assist the masks keep safe. Bonus: there’s a little bit tag to jot down his title on every masks.
