Cotton Twill Hats
Hats are so important when it comes to back to school. My nephew running up and down the field playing soccer, and I need a hat. That sun is killer, and I don’t wear sunglasses often because I wear glasses and never get around to contacts or getting a pair of sunglasses with an RX. Regardless you can not go to any school outdoor event without a hat. This one is lightweight and breaths. I like its durability and the fact it protects my eyes from the sun. The curved visor is essential, nothing more annoying than having to shape one. It fits great and so comfortable. They come in great colors like Olive and Heathered Gray.

Psi Bands
I suffer from motion sickness, and it can be debilitating sometimes. Just going down the lazy river at water parks can cause me to to get motion sick. The biggest downside of all is that my daughters have inherited my motion sickness. So riding in vehicles like school buses can leave them feeling ill by the time they get to their destination. This would not help with their ability to focus and learn in that state of mind. With Psi Bands, they can get relief without any medications or just suffering until they feel better. I wish this were something I had when I was a kid. Luckily my children can get the relief they need to function better in everyday life.

MyCharge
In this day and age, portable chargers are a necessity. With after school activities and even some schools require learning on tablets. Your child will not always sit next to an outlet, and not all teachers allow them to also charge during class. So having a portable charger at their disposal. I don’t want my kids not having a charged phone when they need to call me from their after school activities. If they need something, I want to be just a phone call away. Not only that, it is super handy for myself when I have to rush off to watch a game and want to take video and pictures, but my phone is about dead. Don’t be caught off guard without a charge!

Endura Flap
The activities that surround back to school can be hard on your dog. They are inside longer and no one home to let them out. That is what makes Endura Flap so amazing! Your dog can let themselves out to go potty and play in the yard. Then they can go back inside and take a nap on the couch they know you don’t let them lay on. Pets are often overlooked during back to school because in a rush to get to school and work, they are left there alone after months of attention while their little humans were home. Keep them in mind and ensure you have fewer messes to clean up after being out all day.
