As you make your back-to-school preparations for your children this fall, don’t forget to include survival essentials for the coming year.  If your child is already prepared for whatever might come their way, it’ll save them the stress and possibly the embarrassment, not to mention, you the trip to the school.  Here are 10 items to include in a back-to-school survival kit.

1. Deodorant

Need I say more?  B.O. usually starts to become an issue in 4th or 5th grade, but sometimes earlier depending on the child.  Keep your kid from becoming the class stinker by having them keep some deodorant in their bag.  Here are some doctor recommended deodorants for adolescents.

2. Tide-To-Go

For older children especially, stains can be embarrassing.  Not to mention, stains, well, stain!  The longer they sit untreated, the less likely they’ll come out.  Give those clothes a fighting chance by sending your child to school with some Tide-to-Go.   10 Items to Include In a Back-to-School Survival Kit (for Kids!)

3. Neosporin

Many parents don’t know that while a teacher can provide a student with a Bandaid, they are not allowed to give a student Neosporin or any similar product.  Teachers aren’t allowed to distribute anything that is considered medicinal.  But there are no rules saying a child can’t provide and use their own disinfectant ointment.  When it comes to cuts and owies, this is one survival kit item your child will appreciate having at school!
