Here’s are some snapshots from our Back to School shopping. We tried where ever possible to get environmentally friendly school supplies for our twin second graders.

What did you do this year to make Back to School more eco-friendly? Please share in the comments.
What a cool idea! When you got to the Reasons part, I got chills. It’s so true! We’re a bit too early for school supplies, but I will keep these goals in mind for our craft box! For little kids, another green idea is to repurpose things you’d otherwise toss, like half-used office supplies, or cutting up magazines for collages.
