Back to School and Playtime Season - What Every Parent Should Know

Summer – a season of freedom, play, and discovery. For children, summer is a truly special time: the world feels brighter, days are filled with joy and new experiences. Yet as August draws to a close, both parents and children face a new challenge — preparing for school and kindergarten. Ahead lies a new routine of early mornings, lessons, time with friends, and a stream of experiences tied to learning.
To make this transition smoother, it’s important that changes unfold gradually and positively. When the family adjusts to the school rhythm in advance and the child feels emotionally prepared, the start of the academic year becomes calmer, more motivating, and filled with enthusiasm.
A gradual return to routine
It’s difficult for children to shift overnight from a carefree summer schedule to the structured rhythm of school life. A gradual approach works best: going to bed a little earlier, waking closer to school hours. These small adjustments ease the stress of the first days and make the transition feel more natural.
Choosing the right school accessories
School life is far more engaging when a child has personal items chosen to match their taste. A backpack, pencil case, or sports bag is not just a necessity, but also a source of excitement and motivation. Involving children in the selection process gives them a sense of responsibility and boosts their confidence.
At Labebe you’ll find everything needed for the new school year:
- everyday children’s backpacks;
- wheeled backpacks to avoid heavy loads;
- shoulder bags;
- pencil cases for school supplies;
- sports bags;
- waist bags for daily outings.
Emotional preparation
For a child, the beginning of the school year can bring not only anticipation but also anxiety about the unknown. Parents can help by fostering a positive outlook: sharing school memories, discussing future plans, and highlighting the enjoyable aspects of this new stage. Such conversations ease fears and turn uncertainty into joyful expectation <3
Small habits, big comfort
On the way to school or kindergarten, a child may need water, a snack, or even a favorite toy. Backpacks with separate pockets and compartments make organizing these items much easier. Over time, children also learn to arrange their belongings themselves and keep them in order.
Returning to school or kindergarten after summer is far easier with the right preparation. A carefully planned routine, practical accessories, and strong emotional support will help both children and parents begin the new academic year calmly, confidently, and with joy.
