Do not underestimate drop off day. It’s hot, crowded and stressful. These essentials can help!

The first thing you need to purchase are these bags– they are a game changer. Your child will also air purifier. I found a great deal on this one!

Bath essentials– don’t forget the shower shoes! I found this set of towels on sale, 22k positive reviews!

When it comes to the closet, space saving is the name of the game. Here are some finds that will help.

The desk essentials need to include a hutch to help maximize space and chargers with long cords.

Bed essentials are pretty easy to put together. Both of my college daughters requested these bed caddies. They are especially helpful if the bed is lofted.
