Metropolitan Mama’s Back-To-School Guide 2016

August 9, 2016 By Stephanie

Metropolitan Mama's Back to School Guide 2016

A friend texted me this morning: “Good summer?”

My reply: “Summer was lovely – not quite ready to give it up. You?”

I love the long, lingering days of summer. I like the sunshine and flip flops, the magnificent monsoons and accompanying splashing in the rain, the ice cream cones and crisp salads. Also – the grocery stores laden with ripe apricots, sweet peaches, and juicy nectarines…for under $1/lb!

Even so, I also get excited about brand new school supplies. Researching the latest pencils, crayons, notebooks, and homeschool products is actually a relaxing pastime for me (the same cannot be said for the shopping part).

As a result, I am pleased to bring you Metropolitan Mama’s Back-To-School Guide for 2016. You’ll find my favorite picks for school uniforms, backpacks, lunch boxes, and more. This year, we have a 4th grader, 2nd grader, preschooler, and a baby on the way (due in two weeks!).
