We’re soaking up the final days of summer break over here and I’m kinda bitter about it. I’m never ready to send my kids back. Sorry not sorry. I mean, I’m sure I mutter it under my breath every now and then like “it’s time for these jokers to go back”. And by every now and then, I mean it’s when they do something annoying like argue or forget to do their chores or stomp to the bathroom at 11:00 because now they tuck me in. But I never really mean it. I kinda dread schedules and I kind of crave them. So we’re sharing some of our best back to school ideas for kids. From projects to printables, just a few ideas to get everyone excited about going back! Because honestly, we need to pump up the jams over here. So without further ado, here are our best back to school ideas for kids!
Our planner! It’s complete with a kids version, totally customizable and gets them all excited for school!
{The 2022 version will be released in August. Thank you all for being so patient!}
