Back-To-School.jpg

It's that time of year again...Back to School season is upon us! As our kids head back to the classroom (or their favorite Zoom spot) we all know it also means it's time to stock up on the necessities. Let's take a look at some of the hottest tech, best deals, and must-have supplies to make sure our kids are ready to rock!

Tech

 

Nothing gets you ready to tackle that latest assignment or prepare for that first exam like having the best technology right at your fingertips! From the latest tablets and headphones, to the best wireless chargers, we've got you covered. Come take a look! 

 

Be Prepared

 

Now that you're ready...there are still some very important things to remember during this busy time. I thought I'd also include a few tips and tricks that helped me out!

 

- Find the best place to study or work. Yes, it's a commonly seen tip, but there's a reason why. It's true. Be sure to have a place that you can work in, free of distractions and excessive noise. Put down the phone if you can. Instagram will still be there later. That tweet can wait.

 

Take breaks. Another classic, but again for a very good reason. Burnout is real. Take breaks, even if just to stand up, stretch, close your eyes for a few minutes...whatever it takes to recharge. You may be in for the long haul, but you'll work best with full batteries.

 

- Make sure your devices are ready. Speaking of full batteries, be sure to have your devices fully charged, preferably the night before. Nothing worse than getting that low battery warning when you need to quickly find that email.

 

- Establish a routine. One of the best ways to get ready for school is to ensure your kids get back into a regular routine. This includes bedtime, homework, limiting screen time...but also be sure to sneak in some playtime or let them get that 30 minutes of gaming time in.

 

Celebrate! Didn't see this one coming, did you? Make the return of school a reason to be happy, and not the other way around. Sure, there'll be first week jitters, and you'll always want to talk through things with your kids if they're concerned or scared about anything, but this is your time to make sure they're not just ready but happy to return! Take a selfie as you drop them off. Stop somewhere for a treat after picking them up once the day is done. You got this.
