Time to Shop for School Supplies for home

If you didn’t grab supplies during the summer sales then now is the time to shop for school supplies, a few weeks after school starts. The stores are starting to make room for Halloween stuff, I know hard to believe it’s already here.  My favorite spot, Target, has just marked down a large portion of their supplies 50% off and I’m sure they will go to 75% soon if there are any left.  I’m sure other products will be added soon.

If you haven’t made a Teacher Supply Box like I posted here, but are still interested, now is a great time to gather your supplies.

During my shopping trip I grabbed a bunch of Colored Construction Paper, White Construction Paper and Drawing Paper for making crafts with my girls throughout the year.  I also found a large pencil box to create our Homework Station for my Kindergartner.  Plan to post more about her Homework Station in my next post. I found some School stickers to donate to my daughter’s classroom too.  They even had some cute die cute letters I plan to use to help my little one with her sight words this year.

Teacher Tip…
I always grab a few extra boxes of crayons, markers, pencils and glue during the sales to keep on supply at home throughout the year.

Here is a super cute unit on School Supplies to do with your little ones.

    Hi ladies, I couldn't contact you via email since it's not listed in your profile. I would love for you to join the "afterschooling" blog hop. Please send me your email address, so we can discuss logistics – who hosts when 🙂
