Considering that I write a shopping blog about kids' products, I'm a little embarrassed that I bought my daughter the plainest folders imaginable at Staples less than 24 hours before school started. But, hey, we had already spent (gulp) $60 on everything on her 2nd grade school supply list and with SIXTEEN folders still left to go (16 folders for 2nd grade!) I am glad that we were at Staples where we got them all for just over $2. That being said, had I planned ahead more (and had a larger budget), I would have loved to have ordered her at least a few of these much groovier Personalized School Folders from our affiliate Frecklebox. At $4.95 apiece, they ain't cheap (at least compared to Staples), but for a special back-to-school treat, I think one or two are perfectly reasonable. And I like that Frecklebox has widened its range of designs (click here to see just a few)- the new "Tweety Peety", "Purple People Eater", and "Cars" are some of my favorites. So if you haven't crossed folders off that supply list yet, consider taking a look at Frecklebox.
I personally like the "Looks like me Princess Lunch box" by Frecklebox. If you what your kids be more inspired.Check out their site, you'll surely adore all their selections.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know what was meant by "folders."
ReplyDeleteI think we had binders back then.
We have always bought a couple "pricier" folders and then spent an afternoon before school having a craft-time, decorating the other insanely-cheap Staples folders. The kids went to school proud of their unique folders and also with a few of the other more traditional folders. MKW
