Back to School Supplies

It is back to school time, which means it is important to make sure your kids re equipped with all of the right school supplies and accessories.  When it comes to school lunches and snacks, lots of people opt for brown sacks and paper bags, but they all end up in the trash at the end of the day which isn't very good for our environment.  This year, why not try some great reusable items from Our Green House!


We have so many awesome eco friendly items that are perfect for packing lunches and snacks!  They are all easy to clean, and with lots of fun patterns and designs, your kids will love bringing these items to school every day!
Check out all of our back to school items HERE

Back to School: How to Stay Organized!

It is that time of year again: back to school!  Getting back into the school routine can be stressful, but it doesn't have to be!  We love finding ways to make the transition back to school a little simpler, and here are some of our favorite ways to keep your family organized all year round :)

We love the idea of a backpack station at the back door with a hook and bulletin board for each child.  Kids can learn to hang up their backpack, and your can add each child's weekly schedule or important papers to the board so they aren't forgotten.


To get your kids excited about doing homework, try making a fun homework station!  Add fun school accessories and have the station only be available for school related projects.


Are your kids always super hungry when they get home from school?  Create a snack drawer full of healthy snacks so that when your kids get home they can pick their own pre-approved option!  You can also use this drawer to let kids help pack their own lunches for school.  


How do you stay organized when it's time to go back to school?
