Today was a big day! Hayden started first grade! We were all super excited for what turned out to be an awesome day! He had some of the same kids from last year in his class, and he already made a couple of new friends. This is such a great age! He just HAD to wear his backpack even though it was empty after dropping off all of his supplies yesterday. He was so excited about all of his fun school supplies, especially the amazing things that we received from our friends at Babbleboxx.
Today, I am sharing the back-to-school must haves your kids will love, and I have some amazing brands on the list! Check out these back-to-school must haves from Zenni Optical, Westcott, BLOT, OshKosh B’gosh, Snip-its, and Sprout.
Back-to-School Must Haves Your Kids Will Love
Zenni Optical
We absolutely love these glasses from Zenni Optical! Hayden thought they were super cool, and he would know since he has been wearing glasses since he was three! His school asked us to bring headphones this year, so that mean means a lot of screen time. They are UV + Blue Blocker kids glasses that help protect little eyes from harmful light! That makes mom happy too, because we are pretty relaxed about screen time at home.
Since Hayden wears prescription glasses and sunglasses Zenni Optical is extra cool. You can order from a whole range of stylish and affordable prescription glasses online starting as low as $6.95 for single vision glasses or sunglasses. I can’t wait for Hayden’s new glasses to arrive!
Scissors from Westcott
I think I am as excited as Hayden about these Scissors from Westcott! Hayden is thinking “cool, new scissors”, and I am thinking “I can’t wait to get my hands on some gift wrap with these!”.
Babbleboxx sent three pairs of Westcott scissors, and they all glide through paper like magic! (Westcott CarboTitanium 8″ Straight Scissors, Westcott Titanium Bonded Non-Stick 8 inch straight scissors, and Westcott Titanium Bonded 8-inch straight scissors.)
I am not the only one that is excited about Westcott Scissors! These titanium bonded scissors are the The World’s Favorite Scissors!
BLOT
We have already had so much fun with these BLOT school supplies. Hayden and Brylee colored #allthethings with the Mini Gel Pens, and I used the Ombre Pastel Gel Pens to drop Hayden a note in his lunch box. BLOT offers a fun, vibrant variety of supplies that totally pumped up Hayden for the first day of school. The BLOT Mini Highlighters were Hayden’s favorite!
We have enough Signature Retractable Ballpoint Pens and Signature Mechanical Pencils with Lead Refill and Eraser to last the whole school year!
OshKosh B’gosh
When it’s August in Florida and your kid won’t take off jeans and a long sleeve shirt you know you have nailed his personal style. These super cool pieces from OshKosh B’gosh totally on-trend, and they gave Hayden all kinds of first grade level confidence. When I asked him what he liked best about his OshKosh boys clothes he said “I look awesome. Can I wear this to school and church?” You got it kid! I love that you can mix and match the pieces to create different looks!

Snip-its
A fresh haircut is a back-to-school right of passage! Hayden got a sweet new hair cut after not having one all summer long, and he was so excited to try his new kids styling products from Snip-its. Both products work great for Hayden’s hair depending on how he wants to style it. Hayden loved the Wacky Wax Medium Hold Pomade. It gave him a cool look that wasn’t crunchy or stiff. The Morning Miracle Mousse Styling Spray was perfect for keeping his style in place, and I love that you can spray it! It’s also great for protecting his hair and scalp from that hot Florida playground sun!
Sprout Organic Curlz and Crispy Chews
When it comes to packing lunches I am all about convenience. Sometimes it can be hard to balance that with good-for-you foods. I love that these Spout Organic Curlz and Crispy Chews are come in single packet portions! This is perfect for a lunch box. Our three year old daughter, Brylee, is a big fan of cheese puffs, so I love being able to substitute them for organic kids snacks like the Organic Curlz. I like to drop a little treat in Hayden’s lunch box each day, and he loves the Crispy Chews. they are made with a full serving of REAL fruits and veggies, and they also come in the single packs!
I can’t believe first grade is here already! I definitely felt more like a pro mom this year than I did last year. I was crazy prepared, and we didn’t have to stress about a thing. It was so fun sharing these awesome school supplies with you! I’d love to hear you favorite back-to-school must haves!

I love his little outfit, and those glasses are darling! I’ve ordered from Zenni before and love their glasses!
TwoLittleRippers says
Thanks Cailyn! The glasses are super cute, and I love that we can get a pair for B too even though she doesn’t need a prescription.
Megan says
That top is so cute! My little guy goes into grade 3 the week after next. Do they offer left-handed scissors?
TwoLittleRippers says
Thanks! Third grade is a big one! Here in FL they do big tests in third grade. And yes, they offer lefty scissors. Exactly the same as the ones I have.
