must have back-to-school items

Whether you have a toddler or a teen heading off to school, we have some great items that can help them have a great year.

Track Almost Anything

These Apple AirTag trackers come in handy luggage but are also great for backpacks, lunch boxes, sports equipment, and more. It is super easy to set up, you simply pair the tracker to your phone and slip the little disc into a pocket, or you can purchase the optional key chain. Next time your child leaves their backpack or lunchbox behind, you will know exactly where to find it. These are also great for little ones who don’t have a cell phone, as this will help you keep tabs on them. They even make a dog collar option for your pooch.
