Buying extra school supplies for charity is one of the cheapest (and most fun - I love buying school supplies!) ways we give back all year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549116 Sun, 15 May 2016 06:39:00 +0000 regberadaisy 2549116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T-Mom: hehe their school does this too. They don't typically do UPK boxes but she's going to put together a price for me. I Actually reached out and asked because you told me yours did! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549094 Sun, 15 May 2016 00:12:51 +0000 lamariniere 2549094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: whoa! Each crayon?! I actually don't now if I have to do that yet, but I'll keep the stamp idea in mind if we do. </p> <p>@T-Mom: I wish ours would just buy everything too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549091 Sat, 14 May 2016 22:52:03 +0000 T-Mom 2549091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's been out and I already placed my order for the box that shows up on the first day of class. It's actually very competitively priced and only includes what you need (vs buying a pack of 3 eraser when you only need one). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549046 Sat, 14 May 2016 19:07:59 +0000 808love 2549046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Yes, I text my friend who teaches Kinder at the school and asked her for the list last fall. I was shopping last September's clearance sales for this July's enrollment. LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549041 Sat, 14 May 2016 18:58:51 +0000 regberadaisy 2549041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: labeling each crayon sounds crazy! 😮 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549040 Sat, 14 May 2016 18:58:19 +0000 regberadaisy 2549040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks ladies! I'm hesitant to buy anything yet because I know the really good sales are coming. And I know some schools get pretty specific about brand of pencils, crayons, glue sticks. Some things go into a communal pool and some are personal and need to be labeled. I'm going to wait till I know all the details before buying anything.</p> <p>That being said - a PTA member told me she's already gotten a peek at the list so I'm sure it's coming soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549013 Sat, 14 May 2016 16:44:51 +0000 808love 2549013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: Another good idea a teacher friend did with her daughter is she ordered a cheap personal stamp with her name on it and special permanent ink. She stamped crayons and everything! :) I have the ink but not the stamp yet. Think I'm going that route the first year. Writing names on each crayon for four boxes of crayons is a pain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2549012 Sat, 14 May 2016 16:44:29 +0000 Mrs. D 2549012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are in the final report cards, and also put up at the local walmart </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2548969 Sat, 14 May 2016 13:52:47 +0000 lamariniere 2548969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours is online too. It's all pretty basic stuff: pencils, erasers, crayons, scissors, pack of construction paper, etc. The school orders stuff like binders, individual dry erase boards, etc. and will bill us for those items. I looked at the list and nothing really stands out.</p> <p>That said, we have to put the child's name on everything, so I'm going to look into getting personalized stickers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2548908 Sat, 14 May 2016 09:48:25 +0000 808love 2548908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us, it's online. You can call the school and ask too. You can also start by buying the stuff you know they will need pencils, crayons, scissors when it is on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/school-supply-list#post-2544966 Thu, 12 May 2016 18:00:00 +0000 regberadaisy 2544966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you know when your school usually distributes their supply lists for the coming school year?</p> <p>We will need to buy some for UPK in the Fall and I feel like supply sales are always much earlier than i expect! </p>
