Some awesome things I've seen

So with back to school time here and in full force I have noticed a lot of really neat things that all the kids have and I have to share some of them.  I have to say that I really liked the idea of these fold-able and super light binders that I have seen all over this year!
I am a true hater of a heavy backpack in fact I have already run into issues with the school informing me I need to have a BIGGER back pack for my eldest.  I see no need for it he has one just the right size for his size and the size they want me to get is WAY too big and I wouldn't want him carrying that much on his back at all.  I am unsure how to approach it, I may just tell em to stuff it, I pick him up each day and there is no need for something bigger. 

These binders make the big pack back not such a big deal, when they get older he can easily carry all he needs in these without the weight. 

What else have I seen??

The Squoosh, not only has the company let me show them off all over town but I have actually been seeing them in my eldest's Kindergarten class and a lot of the moms just LOVE them!! They are also Kindergarten friendly cause they're easier to open than the regular fruit cup, resealable which minimizes their mess, I am sure the teachers appreciate that lol.  I was so happy to even take these over to SMILE again and pass them around, they finished ALL of them so they clearly liked them.  Seeing them all over again is just another bonus.  Great for babies and awesome for your little ones looking for a little bit more manageable independence!  Overall I am really happy with the product and they taste GREAT, my fav being the one with the beets believe it or not and I HATE beets!!

What things have you seen this year that you have taken a HUGE shine to in the school year??
