“Back to School” marks a new beginning ~ a fresh start that signifies the beginning of new routines, new friends and new STUFF.
My oldest is starting “pre-K” this year {uh-oh, this mommy just got teary eyed and we’re not even going to kindergarten yet!!}. Anyway, even Wyatt was excited about the new STUFF and insisted on a brand new messenger bag.
{I know, I’m in trouble…}
Here are some fun ideas for your little buckaroos as you prepare for Back to School this weekend.
COWBOY BACKPACK
Let’s start with the basics, this Cowboy Backpack from Rainy Day Kids is not only DARLING, it’s also made out of heavy duty vinyl that is wipeable. Perfect for holding books & pencils, AND it’s kool-aid resistant… Perfect!! {there is also a Western Lunch Box that is too cute!!}
WESTERN MESSENGER BAG
For the bigger kiddos we have the Yucca Messenger Bag from Cry Baby Ranch. According to Wyatt all of the big kids use a messenger bag… that’s a good thing because I think I may order this one for me!!
COWBOYS & INDIANS NOTEBOOK SET
Filling up the school bags is easy to do… I can hardly believe how long the School Supply lists are!! You can make it a little more fun with this Cowboys & Indians Notebook Set from Barn Dandy’s. The set includes a 3-ring binder, essay book and tin pencil box. I may order this one for me, too…
COWBOY UMBRELLA & RAIN BOOTS
It won’t be long before the kids are waiting in the rain & snow for the bus to come. These super-cute Rain Boots and Umbrella from Western Chief are sure to keep the rainy day blues away.
{NOTE: There’s a backpack to match HERE!!}
ELEMENTARY LOVENOTE SET
These note cards are my absolute favorite find for “Back to School”!! Who couldn’t pass up the Elementary Lovenote Set available from the Curiosity Shoppe?? Each card is screen-printed by hand and is made with 100% recycled paper. I know that Valentine’s Day seems eons away but I can tell you now that I’ll be bringing these out again for Heart Day!! Love ‘em…
COWBOY TV TRAY
Fast forward through the first day of school - my favorite part of any day is SNACKS. After-school snacks are even better!! I can so vividly remember watching cartoons and eating Cheese Nips every afternoon when I got home from school. I look forward to creating after-school memories for my boys… this Retro Cowboy TV Tray and Dukes of Hazzard re-runs
should do the trick!!
COWBOY DESK
After snacks it’s time for homework… Rope some creativity with this colorful Cowboy Desk. Need more furniture to create a Cowboy Bedroom or Play Room?? Children & Kids Furniture has it all… Click HERE to see the Bookcase, Toy Box, Chest of Drawers, BUNK BED, and even a Crib!! Too cute.
