As the end of summer draws near, it’s time to start thinking about getting the kids ready to head back to school. From backpacks to lunch boxes, there are a plethora of items to consider when preparing for the new school year. As a mom, I know how overwhelming it can be to navigate through the sea of options available. That’s why I’ve curated a list of back-to-school essentials that are not only practical but also stylish and durable.
