Final week, James began preschool. The unhealthy 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, āIām so excited!!ā After I choose him up within the afternoons, he tells me the issues he did (āI washed my palms!!ā). Daniel and I are so pleased and relieved that he’s adjusting nicely to a brand new scenario, particularly after final 12 months and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I wished to make the transition as straightforward as attainable for him. I attempted my hardest to get all of the issues he would want (what the heck is a rain swimsuit?) whereas ensuring heād like them, too. That meant virtually all the pieces was dinosaur themed, however not less than he was pleased to take his lunchbox to high school! Right here is a number of the nice choices I discovered!
My Favourite Finds for Preschool
Nike Flex Runner in sport/royal with college pink
-AND-
Nike Flex Plus in smoke gray
James has worn these sneakers for a 12 months now and I canāt say sufficient good issues about them. Theyāre soft, breathable, tremendous versatile, and light-weight. The loops on the again and tongue make it really easy for him to tug on, too.
Slip-on Crocs
At his preschool, the children put on out of doors footwear and indoor footwear (that they go away in school). They really helpful Crocs clogs for indoor footwear. James has been carrying them round the home for a couple of weeks to get used to them and to date theyāre 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 heās worn for the previous 2 years (in several sizes). Fully waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the edges are the perfect half. They make it really easy for James to tug on and off.
Pottery Barn Youngsters Mackenzie Dino backpack (small dimension)
James loves dinosaurs and this backpack is roofed in them. Itās cute, water resistant, and sturdy, with padded shoulder straps. I believe the small dimension will serve us nicely for a pair years. Oh, and we bought it monogrammed together with his identify.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat
For some purpose, I simply actually wished a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is lovable. Itās extra of a light-weight jacket, so hold that in thoughts in case youāre in search of a fall jacket with somewhat extra heat within the lining.
CamelBak water bottle
Leakproof, spill-proof, BPA-free, and dishwasher protected
Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag
I pack this with a snack, fabric serviette, and Jamesās water bottle suits proper inside (he comes residence earlier than lunch), however it would match a bento field or different lunch container and an ice pack!
Crayola Youngsters Reusable Face Masks
Jamesās college asks that children solely put on stable coloration masks (prints could be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful fabric masks has been an ideal possibility to date. The masks are light-weight, machine-washable, the ear straps are adjustable, and thereās a bendable nostril clip inside the material to assist the masks keep safe. Bonus: thereās somewhat tag to jot down his identify on every masks.
