Your kids might not want to hear this but it’s almost time to start getting ready to go back to school. Topping Staples 2016 trends list this year are splashy accessories. Emojis are no longer just for texting they’re on magnets and all kind of of other back to school supplies.

Then of course there’s the tech, “the Microsoft Surface is really great because it has the power of a laptop but it’s compact like a tablet. It also has the key board that is completely removable and it’s great to put in your backpack.”

For the younger kids, it’s action packed back packs and lunch bags.  Kids safe headphones that are volume controlled to protect kids hearing also make the cut and reusable containers for lunches are good for students of all ages. And once you have all of these must have back to school items, you may want to consider putting a label on everything because as we know kids tend to lose things. Hamilton based company, Mabel’s Labels lets you design your own custom label and you can put it on everything from a backpack, to a lunch pale, right down to a pencil.
