Final week, James began preschool. The unhealthy information is I miss him as my fixed companion, however the excellent news is: he completely loves it. On the drive there within the mornings he tells me, “I’m so excited!!” Once I decide him up within the afternoons, he tells me the issues he did (“I washed my palms!!”). Daniel and I are so comfortable and relieved that he’s adjusting nicely to a brand new scenario, particularly after final yr and never seeing many individuals.
Naturally, I wished to make the transition as simple as doable for him. I attempted my hardest to get all of the issues he would want (what the heck is a rain go well with?) whereas ensuring he’d like them, too. That meant virtually all the things was dinosaur themed, however no less than he was comfortable to take his lunchbox to high school! Right here is a number of the nice choices I discovered!
My Favourite Finds for Preschool

James has worn these sneakers for a yr now and I can’t say sufficient good issues about them. They’re soft, breathable, tremendous versatile, and light-weight. The loops on the again and tongue make it really easy for him to tug on, too.
Slip-on Crocs
At his preschool, the youngsters put on out of doors sneakers and indoor sneakers (that they depart at college). They advisable Crocs clogs for indoor sneakers. James has been sporting them round the home for just a few weeks to get used to them and to this point they’re nice. Light-weight, simple to wash, simple to slip-on, and the heel band helps them keep on.
Crocs rain boots
These are the rainboots he’s worn for the previous 2 years (in numerous sizes). Utterly waterproof, not too heavy, washable, and the handles on the edges are the perfect half. They make it really easy for James to tug on and off.
Pottery Barn Children Mackenzie Dino backpack (small measurement)
James loves dinosaurs and this backpack is roofed in them. It’s cute, water resistant, and sturdy, with padded shoulder straps. I believe the small measurement will serve us nicely for a pair years. Oh, and we received it monogrammed together with his identify.
Cat & Jack Yellow Raincoat
For some cause, I simply actually wished a yellow rain jacket for him. This one is cute. It’s extra of a light-weight jacket, so hold that in thoughts should you’re searching for a fall jacket with a bit extra heat within the lining.
CamelBak water bottle

Wildkin Dinosaur Lunch Bag
I pack this with a snack, material serviette, and James’s water bottle matches proper inside (he comes residence earlier than lunch), however it can match a bento field or different lunch container and an ice pack!
Crayola Children Reusable Face Masks
James’s faculty asks that youngsters solely put on stable colour masks (prints might be distracting to little ones). This 5-pack of colourful material masks has been an ideal possibility to this point. The masks are light-weight, machine-washable, the ear straps are adjustable, and there’s a bendable nostril clip throughout the material to assist the masks keep safe. Bonus: there’s a bit tag to put in writing his identify on every masks.
