Keep track of that charger, lunchbox and more this school year
Getting ready for the new school year requires a little more than adjusting to the morning alarm and checking off that supply list. Try these products, plus a little something for baby’s meal time, to make life easier as summer fades into fall.
Miniware’s Sensory Baby Bowl
(miniware.com/collections/sensory-baby-bowl, $22.50) is designed to delight little ones as they explore shapes and textures. It is a great way to engage tiny fingers during meal time with bumps and shapes to touch. Practically speaking, the lid doubles as a plate, the bowl suctions to the table or high chair tray, and the whole thing can go right in the dishwasher. Bowls and lids are made from 100 percent food grade silicone.
EaZy Hold
(eazyhold.com, prices vary by collection) silicone cuffs are for anyone who needs an extra bit of grip on everything from pencils to large water bottles – even sports equipment and musical instruments. These super stretchy handles come in 10 sizes and are the perfect aid to help little ones early childhood independence or to help older kids or adults with fine motor or cognitive challenges. They are made from 100 percent food grade silicone, extremely adaptive and great for home or therapy use.
Mabel’s Labels
(mabelslabels.com) personalized waterproof labels are the ones you might remember from your own camp and school items. They have been around for more than 20 years and they are dishwasher and laundry safe. If you want it to come home, label it. In addition to name labels, Mabel’s offers a clothing stamp, as well as alert stickers for allergies and other emergency information. School label packs are discounted 25 percent until July 21.
Lock Socket
(locksocket.com, available on Amazon) locks cords to wall outlets so they won’t be knocked out or unplugged accidentally – or walk off without permission. The new red version is universal. There are also device-specific plugs for phone and device chargers and even medical equipment.
