I cannot believe we are already back to school! Yep, it’s time to head back to school already! And with it comes a long shopping list. But if you have teen boys, I’ve got a few things you won’t want to forget on your list this year. I was really trying to observe my boy this year as he is JUST SO GROWN and I was curious about the things he would choose to take to school outside of the mandatory supplies list! 

Peep this photo of him I took after a long day of shopping! He is holding the outfit I brought him home in.

So, I have a kindergartner, a Third grader, a fourth-grader–all girls. However, I am now the mother of a TEENAGE BOY! They all have specific items that they want when school starts. Plus, there are also other items I’ve found that are particularly helpful. Here is what I think will be "The drip"

1) A Back pack lock!  You paid a lot money for the shoes, the phones cases, and more-- Help him protect his things with a back pack lock! 

2) Apparently it is cool to pack your lunch now. Make sure he is doing it in "style" with a cool lunch box! Now, My Boujie boy liked this Adidas one- But There are 100s of options. 

You are going to also want some ice packs- I would suggest two sets so that you always have a set frozen! These Bentgo buddies looked pretty cute to me!

3) Hand Sanitizer-- These fools are GROSS. These Spiderman Hand sanitizers that will clip right to his backpack look pretty dop to me. 

4) Nobody wants to be the stinky kid, but boys just naturally start to stink. Troy is really into the smell goods and Colognes. He Particularly carries All over body Deodorant by old spice It fits perfect in a backpack and your boys can put on a quick layer after gym class or when they feel like they need it!

5) PLENTY of socks. He has been obsessed with these ones by Nike and Under Armor since he was old enough to ask for socks. 

6) Stainless Steel Insulated water bottle! They are getting to be big boys so I would say anything 30-40 ounces like this one

7) A large back pack. Troy always chooses a Nike Backpack. I know they can  be pricey, but we reuse them as over night bags and they make the perfect carry on! If he is a really athletic kid and is always toting his sporting gear a good duffle bag comes in handy as well! 

8) I am sure if your child has the latest pair of Air Maxes, or whatever tennis shoes-- He walks funny to protect the "Crease"-=- Well, I found these things he can add to his shoes! 

9) Okay, So, He may or may not NEED them- But I would recommend snagging him two other pairs of shoes like these Hey dudes and Crocs

10) Lastly, I mean there are several things he wants-- But If you are like me he ends up needing a pair of Slacks and a dress shirt for SOMETHING you had no clue about! Do yourself a favor and snag that ahead of time. 

I am interested to hear what your teens have asked for to start the school year!! Comment and let me know!!
