Back to School Has Never Been So Sweet
From Rice Krispie-blue backpacks to fruit-scented pencils, check out these seven back-to-school essentials.
As fall sets in, parents and students prepare to head back to the classroom and back-to-school hauls have flooded YouTube and TikTok.
While tweens and teens prefer to shop the heavy hitter big box stores we’ve seen for the past few years – Brandy Melville, Aerie, Lululemon, and Urban Outfitters – we’ve rounded up some unique, sweet little items for your elementary schooler’s back to school needs.
Whip out the calendar, sharpen the pencils, and (most importantly) plan those lunches.
