kids backpacks lunch boxes image

Do you just purchase supplies like folders/notebooks/pencils etc. or do you also buy new clothes and shoes? New backpacks or lunch boxes?
Growing up my mom used back to school as the chance to buy a years worth of everything. I however don't think my soon to be first grader needs allll that much.
Answer
we buy the folders, pencils, etc. even if we technically could scrounge them from previous years ... there's just something inspiring about a new folder or pencil that an old one just can't match. the old ones obviously don't get thrown out but get used for home projects, instead.
clothes, i buy only when needed, but since all the kids are still growing, the kids typically need new fall clothes anyway, and we typically get them right before school starts even though they'll still be wearing their summer clothes for a while longer. shoes, i only buy when they're actually outgrown or destroyed. i would replace lunch boxes at the beginning of the school year if the kids actually ask me to (on the grounds that the design on the kindergarten lunch box might be mortifying in fifth grade), but usually they don't. otherwise i only replace them when they fall apart. i bought high-quality LL Bean backpacks for my kids when they started kindergarten and my incoming ninth grader is still happily using hers.

What's with teenagers and these little kid bookbags?
It's Fryda
Why do I keep seeing all these people at my school walking around with short little kids bookbags that have characters like Sesame Street and Power Rangers and all that? Is this supposed to be some kind of style, because I think it just looks ridiculous.
Give me your opinions.
Answer
once you get to high school the new thing is to bring back all your old childhood memories. so blues clues rugrats barney Dora stawberry shortcake. It shows off who you are. It could be a lunch box or backpack or even folders. But i mean its just something We do now. haha dont ask me why but we do! Hope this helps
