Ah, the kids are growing up and now they’re off to college! If it’s your child’s first year away at school, making sure you have all the dorm room essentials can be stressful and expensive. Amazon has everything you need to make your collegiate kiddo’s dorm room feel like a home away from home though, without having to spend their entire college tuition fund. See some of our picks below.
Comforter Set | Sheet Set | Storage Bag Organizers | Closet Organizer | Desk Organizer | Drawer Organizers | Towel Set | Lap Laptop Desk | Space-Saving Hangers | Portable Shower Caddy | First Aid Kid | Laundry Detergent Kit | Laundry Hamper
A simple way to add a little unique style to a bland dorm room is with bedding. These sheets and this comforter set bring some flair and personality to the accommodations. If you’ve ever lived in, or even just spent time in a college dorm room, you know they aren’t very expansive. Additional storage and organization options are key to making the most of a small space. These storage bag organizers, this closet organizer, and these space-saving hangers are great options for maximizing space. This desk organizer and these drawer organizers can help keep odds and ends in order and out of the way. Plus, this lap laptop desk is awesome to use as a workspace if a full desk area isn’t available. With communal bathrooms being common in dorm buildings, a good personal towel set and portable shower caddy for easy transportation of toiletries are both must-haves. And laundry won’t be such a hassle with this hamper/laundry bag combo and laundry detergent kit. Finally, because we are all aware that minor bumps and bruises are a part of the experience, a first aid kid is an essential for any dorm room.

Yes, we know it’s only July…we don’t want to rush summer either! But it’s never too early to start prepping for back to school. The school supply lists can seem endless and if your young ones are growing like weeds, shopping for clothes can be frustrating, to say the least. Back-to-school shopping can be exhausting and expensive, but Walmart is making it easy with everything you need for the upcoming school year at a price that’s definitely budget friendly. So shop away now, and then sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of your summer vacation.
First Day Outfit
Picking out the perfect first day outfit is kind of like picking out the perfect wedding dress. Okay maybe not THAT close but still…the first day back to school is the first time seeing a bunch of people that probably haven’t been seen in a while, and there will definitely be photos taken (just one more!!) so wanting an outfit that looks good is understandable. This goes for all you teachers, too! We know you want to dress to impress this year’s students and we support it. Check out some of these fashion finds for a first day outfit below.
Girls’ Denim Jacket | Girls’ Jumpsuit | Girls’ T-Strap Sandals | Girls’ Tie Dye Tank Top | Girls’ Skinny Jeans | Girls’ Buckle Sandals | Boys’ Pocket T-Shirt | Boys’ Slim Fit Jeans | Boys’ Skate Sneakers | Boys’ Denim Button Up Shirt | Boys’ Camo Shorts | Boys’ Buckle Sandals | Women’s Dress Pants | Women’s Twist Front Top | Tassel Necklace | Women’s Leopard Wedges | Men’s Button Up Shirt | Men’s Dress Pants | Men’s Oxford Shoes
Backpacks and Lunchboxes
Looking good doesn’t stop with the clothes! These backpacks and lunchboxes are not only functional, they’re fashionable, too. Your child will rule the school in style – and maybe a cool backpack will help the kids look forward to doing homework (one can dream, right?).
Unicorn Backpack | Marble Print Lunchbox | Tie Dye Backpack | Rainbow Hearts Backpack | Color Block Backpack | Bentgo Lunchbox | Floral Backpack | Holographic Lunchbox | Champion Backpack | Arctic Zone Lunchbox | AND1 Backpack | Shark Backpack and Lunchbox Set | Star Wars Backpack | OPUX Lunchbox | Super Mario Backpack
School Supplies
There’s something exhilarating about new school supplies. Everything is brand new and shiny, full of potential. The blank pages of a notebook wait to be filled with color-coordinated notes and to-do lists – or doodles for the day dreamers. Most schools give out supply lists but if you want to get a jumpstart on supply shopping, we’ve rounded up the essentials here.
Crayons | Colored Pencils | Markers | Highlighters | Mechanical Pencils | Ballpoint Pens | Scissors | Glue Sticks | No. 2 Pencils | Binder Pouch | Ruler | Index Cards | Calculator | Post-It Notes | Construction Paper | Spiral Notebook | Folder | 3-Ring Binder | Filler Paper | All School Supplies

School is out for the summer (or will be soon) and for most kiddos, this means sleeping in, playing in the sun, and forgetting everything learned during the schoolyear. This is where summer reading lists come into play. Most schools assign summer reading, but if you want to help your child develop a love for books, leisurely reading is a must! We’ve compiled a variety of age-appropriate literature, so whether you’ve got a bookworm or a reluctant reader on your hands, there’s a book here that your child is sure to love. And maybe this list will remind you of some of your favorite books from when you were younger and inspire you to give them another read, too!
Preschool/Kindergarten
These stories are full of fun pictures and colorful characters for the little ones who are just learning to read. Delightful to read together, or solo, these books will keep young readers excited and engaged.
Elementary School
There’s nothing quite like finding a good series or set of books to get you hooked on reading, because sometimes one story just isn’t enough! Most of these selections have multiple books so your child will feel invested in the stories and find friends in the characters they’re reading about.
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Middle School
The precarious age of preteens can leave them feeling sensitive, misunderstood, or curious about the future. These coming-of-age books can give your child someone and something to relate to, and if not, at least they’ll find a good story to get lost in for a little while.
From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
The Judy Blume Teen Collection
High School
These books are a mix of classic and contemporary. Poignant and touching, these stories will help your teen see things from a different perspective and empathize with others as they follow these characters through life’s trials and tribulations.
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
