Getting your child ready for the new school year can be a hectic and stressful time with everything one needs to prepare. Spending some time beforehand to plan for everything you need will ultimately save you a lot of time and stress, while also making sure your child is well taken care of.
While school supplies differ from school to school and year to year, here is a list of ten of those items that are not always top of mind, but still vitally important.
- Does your child AND your child’s school have all of the necessary emergency contact numbers?
- Has your child received all of their vaccinations?
- Does your child know the safety basics? E.g. don’t talk to strangers, road and pedestrian safety, and what to do in an emergency.
- Does you child have any allergies that the school needs to be made aware of?
- Is your child’s school aware of any medications he/she needs to take?
- Is the medication they need labelled properly and have you checked the expiry date?
- Do you have the school’s emergency contact information?
- Do you have a healthy school lunch plan?
- Has your child been taught the basics of personal hygiene?
- Does your child have a good school bag? One that sits comfortably on the shoulders and easily holds everything they need, can help prevent back problems.
