School Supplies


We still have about 5 weeks of summer vacation left, but today we went school supply shopping.  We got almost everything on our lists.  We still need some disinfecting wipes (we'll get them from Costco) and a piece of black felt; not sure what the felt is for.  Of course with Archer going into junior high next year it makes things a little more interesting.  His list was the longest of all the kids and it did not even include any notebooks or binders!  After we get his class list we will find out what he needs in the notebook/binder arena and what type of calculator he is going to need.  I am just hoping that it will not cost us too much.  Overall we spent between $20 and $30 per kid, which is not too bad.Our school does offer a school supply kit which would have cost us over $40, so I think we did pretty good.  Plus my kids really enjoy picking out their own supplies, choosing what color supply box, what color scissors.  At least it is done and we can enjoy the rest of summer break without having to worry about school. 

P.S.  We got our school supplies at Target, they had some great deals!
