Back to School time is here! Like many parents, I’m gearing up to send my kids back to class. Over the summer each of my three children has sprouted and outgrown nearly all of their clothes. So school clothes shopping is on the To-Do List. When shopping for Back to School, it’s good to remember your ABC’s. Here are a few tips on back to school shopping and a special giveaway sponsored by Hanes just for Little Family Adventure Readers.

A – Affordable
Back to school shopping can be expensive. Between school supplies, new clothes, shoes, and gear, it will add up quickly. When clothes shopping, stock up on your wardrobe basics: tees, socks, underwear. Choose classic styles that are affordable and can be mixed and matched.
Hanes has all the basics they need and the styles they want at great prices.

B – Breathable
Summer may be over, but it is still really hot here in Oklahoma. So I look for breathable fabrics that keep my kids cool and absorb odor.
Hanes has developed unique technology to keep my kids and adults cool and odor free. X-Temp technology is Hanes’ Tee Shirts and underwear keep them cool and dry all day. While FreshIQ provides advanced odor protection. This is a big plus with one of the kids running Cross Country this year.
C – Comfortable
Kids are active and they need clothes that can go anywhere they do. Kids want to be comfortable in what they are wearing. So choose clothes that are comfortable and ones they will actually want to wear.

My son started back to school yesterday. We got him ready buy shopping for school clothes and school supplies. I also got him back on a school sleep schedule about 2 weeks before school started.

I got them ready for back-to-school by readjusting them to the school schedule, and buying the many-needed school supplies for the new school term.

We shopped for new school supplies. New clothe and shoes. We shopped for food to pack for lunches. And we started our sleep and wake routine about a week before school started. My older kids have been back to school for about 2 weeks now. My youngest is starting preschool on Tuesday September 5th.
We homeschool year round so I’m not doing anything special right now. If I were, I’d get shopping for school supplies and clothes.
I’ve gotten school supplies and talked about preschool to prep my son.
We shop for clothes, school supply and started routine one week ago to get kids ready for back to school.
We bought a lot of new clothes, especially for the colder weather. We also bought supplies, shoes and backpacks. We went to open house at my son’s and daughter’s school as well.
I get them ready by doing some back to school shopping.
I am getting them ready for back to school by going to bed earlier and waking earlier so the different schedule isn’t so jarring once school starts. We have also been doing school supplies shopping.
My kids went back to school last week and I got them back to school ready with new shirts and pants and a back pack with supplies!
We try and start shopping early before all the good stuff is sold out 🙂
My kids started last week but we are still trying to get into a good routine now that I have 2 in school!

I bought some new shoes and clothes for her.
Mainly working on getting a routine down right now! Night prep most things for mornings. Thanks for the chance to win!
We are all already doing a lot of shoooibg and picking after school activities to get incorporate into the schedule

Bought school supplies and new clothes
We got all of our supplies ready before school 🙂
We try to get everything ready the night before to avoid rushing in the morning.
I’m just picking up one thing at a time.
New clothes and supplies, shopping sales and discounts when I can find them.
I got my little guy a new backpack, some shoes, and a few basic outfits for his first year of school this year! So glad we don’t have to get school supplies this year, but they accept donations for school supplies, and we just pay a registration/supply fee at the beginning of the year!
We get ready by buying supplies.
New clothes, shoes, school supplies and getting to bed earlier a week before school starts. Good to get in the routine early.
We start bedtime at 7pm 1 month before school starts. It really helps get him ready to be up that early and not yawning when school starts.
I start early bedtimes the week before school starts.
We get kids ready for back to school by starting the morning routine a week before school starts. We also get new clothes and school supplies for school.
Mine go to year-round school, so ‘back to school’ really just means a new classroom and a new school supply list.
School supplies, new clothes & shoes and earlier bedtimes.
We got all the supplies and got into a bedtime routine.
They’ve gotten ready with new clothes and supplies, and we’ve prayed together for a safe school year. Thanks.

we did all of our back to school shopping early 🙂
To get ready for going back to school, I order as much as I can online so we can spend more time together and outside! Like you, I look for technical fabrics so clothes can go from school to outdoor afterschool play.
We stocked up on new Hanes white crew socks, and boxer briefs to get our 7-yo ready for second grade. New socks and undies always make for a great fresh start! 🙂
Thanks for the chance to win!
