Something I love to do when Back to School season rolls around is give my girls each a Back to School Basket!
I had them out at are Sprinkle Party Back to School Dinner, but the girls opened them after the first day of school because we had such a fun and busy night before finishing up our Sprinkle Party and then ice cream at Grandmas!
Each year I fill them with school and art supplies. Even though they are both too young to take supplies for themselves to school (or in Violet’s case even go to school haha) I think it’s the perfect time to restock our art supplies and freshen up all the dried up markers that are missing lids, colors or have simply gone missing. This year I got Liv a few cool ones like retractable markers, pastel markers and gel pens!
Of course I kept with the classics like a sprinkle journal (I got mine from Dollar Tree), that actually sparked the whole sprinkle party idea, paint pots, and washable markers.
This could easily be given as a family basket with each child in the family getting their own notebook and pencil pouch too. I thought it was fun how I put the sprinkle themed books in the middle of both baskets!
I decided to give each girl a basket because we go through art supplies so quickly around our house! I filled the pencil pouches with pens, little animal erasers and other erasers I found at Dollar Tree that matched the theme, that the girls LOVED!
I had to include some things to incorporate the sprinkle theme like donut pens, and sprinkle rulers! The girls absolutely adored the Crayola LOLs!
The Details: Plastic Crate | Gel Pens | Cute Erasers | Animal Erasers | Ice Cream Keychain | Sprinkle Notebook | Crayola Clicks Retractable Markers | Crayola Super Tips Markers | Crayola Pastel Washable Markers | Crayola Colored Pencils | Crayola Colors of the World Skin Tones Crayons | Crayola Washable Paint Pot Set | Crayola Classic Crayons | Donut Pens | Sprinkle Rulers | Crayola LOLs |
