Does anyone else love school supply shopping as much as I do? It brings so much nostalgia of school shopping with my mom as a kid, and now that I’m the mom, I want to create as many good memories for my son. This year I really want to focus on having personalized school supplies beyond a name hand-written with a sharpie on the inside of his lunch box.
Minted is absolutely killing it this year with their personalized school supplies. They’ve got Disney-brand items like this Moana notebook that can be customized with your child’s name or class subject.
I love the idea of having a personalized family calendar that can be used specifically for homework after school activities!
If you’re interested in shopping small, Etsy has some great options this year. These water bottles are laser-engraved, so no worrying about vinyl or stickers peeling off during the year.
If you’ve got kids going to a gym class and need to change, or prone to losing their sweater after recess, these custom clothing label stamps look perfect. Super easy to use and lots of font options!
I am absolutely getting these customized colored pencils for Marcus this year! I love how the personalization makes a simple school supply so much more exciting!
Land’s End always does an excellent job when it comes to customizing items. Their zip-front sweaters are great quality while also being uniform-appropriate, and these “big kid” tech backpacks are so sturdy and have plenty of pockets. The personalization is minimal, but still keeps it unique.
