Re: What's on your homeschool supplies back to school list?
It depends on what your kids like. The basic school supplies are definitely WAY cheaper this time of year, so I tend to stock up (pencils, pens, dry erase markers, paper, notebooks . . . .etc). When the kids were younger I also stocked up on glue sticks, glue, crayons, etc. Now my youngest is the only one using those kinds of things and since I stocked up so much in the past, we don't need more.
I have one kid who likes using composition books for each subject, so we stock up on those. . . Another uses notebook paper. . . one likes fun colored pens for writing most things, another likes mechanical pencils for everything . . . it just depends. But as long as it's stuff you're going to use eventually, I'd recommend over-estimating, especially this first year because the prices really are so much better than during the year.
