Whether your kid is prepping for their first day of school or you're just replenishing your school supply stash, rounding up everything you need can feel overwhelming. Instead of dragging little ones on this annual retail quest, make it easier on yourself by shopping for everything you need from home. Amazon has a back to school hub filled with every conceivable school supply imaginable, and even some you may not have thought of. The hub not only separates your kids' school needs by age and grade level, but you can also peruse all of the most-loved back-to-school essentials that have racked up nearly flawless customer reviews and ratings. On top of that, free and speedy shipping options mean you can get away with last-minute purchases, even after the school year begins.
For the hub's shopping categories, think durable yet stylish backpacks in both rolling and standard options, insulated lunch bags, reusable and categorized notebooks, mechanical pencils, electronics, and pens and art supplies. If you're on the hunt for back-to-school clothes, they have a section for that, too. We even found the perfect, lightweight rain jacket your kiddo can easily stash in their backpacks to prep for unpredictable weather. Check out our school essentials checklist ahead, and knock out all of your shopping in one sitting.
