Introduction
As the new school session has started, most parents are busy stocking up on textbooks, uniforms, and shoes. But in the middle of the hustle, there are always a few school essentials that look to slip through the mind-until the teacher sends a note or your child reminds you at the last minute about that product.
If you’re a parent preparing for the new academic session or school reopening after summer vacation, here are 7 school essentials that are often forgotten but absolutely necessary. Consider this a quick reminder to complete the checklist!
1. Name Labels for Stationery and Books
This might look small, but it saves a lot of stress (and lost pencils). Name labels help your child identify their belongings and prevent confusion in class.
At Sakuya.in, you’ll find cute, waterproof name stickers and label sets your kids will always like. Personalized options make labeling fun and easy.
2. Good-Quality Pencil Pouches
Parents often focus on notebooks and pens but forget the importance of a good pencil pouch. A good pouch keeps things organized and avoids the daily “Mumma or Papa, I lost my eraser” drama.
Check out Sakuya’s range of pencil pouches that come in bright, kid-friendly designs and zip compartments.
3. Funky and Functional Water Bottles
Hydration is key, but so is making sure your child doesn’t mix up bottles with classmates. Funky bottles with unique prints are a hit with kids and help them remember to drink water.
Explore Sakuya’s BPA-free water bottles that are both safe and stylish.
4. Reward Stickers and Motivation Tools
Teachers love it when kids come prepared with their own sticker sets or stamps to reward themselves or their classmates. These also serve as a positive reinforcement tool at home.
Our printable reward sticker sheets are great to encourage responsibility and good behavior in a fun, creative way.
5. Extra Set of Casual Clothes for Emergencies
Whether it's paint day, a lunch spill, or a rainy day mishap, having an extra set of casual clothes (kept in their bag or school locker) can be a game-changer.
You can browse affordable kidswear options on Sakuya.in that are perfect for school backpacks.
6. Craft Supplies Beyond Crayons
Many parents grab crayons but forget that schools also need glue sticks, child-safe scissors, colored paper, and sketch pens. These are often required during project weeks or for surprise assignments.
We’ve got you covered with Sakuya’s curated craft kits that are super fun for kids to use.
7. A Mini Whiteboard or Flashcard Set for Home Practice
Sometimes, kids need to practice math, spelling, or handwriting at home. A mini whiteboard or flashcard set can make this process interactive and less boring.
Take a look at our educational printables designed to support learning beyond the classroom.
