Whether your kid is starting preschool or entering high school [1], transitioning them from the long Summer days into an academic mindset — not to mention altering their wake-up schedule — can be hard. Sometimes (if you're lucky), you can get them excited to head back by creating fun moments surrounding the prep work. Whether that's learning about teachers, organising supplies [2], or buying something new for class, you can turn that apprehension into enthusiasm. Need a new shiny backpack to get them excited to fill it up? We have 15.
