Back to School in Long Beach California

 

 

The lazy, hazy days of summer are just about over.  September is closing in on us and the beginning of the new school year is just around the corner.  Are you ready? 

 

The CBS Early Show put together this great segment on cool back to school gadgets:

 

  • Lightweight laptops -EEE PC 900 (only 2.18 lbs., runs Windows XP and plenty of space, it even has a webcam and it is somewhat shockproof) See the video below to view the many features this neat little gadget provides.
  • Digital lunch pail/printer – unlikely duo, but it works
  • Cheap MP3, only $39 – not a favorite with kids though
  • Back friendly back packs with air lifts to lift the weight off your child – those books are heavy! 





 

Heather Waldmand over at Kidshealth.org has a wonderful article and some great suggestions about the emotional impact of the first day back at school:  “Going Back To School”

 

10 Tips for Smart Back-to-School Shopping over at great schools is sure to make your transition less stressful.  While you are over at Great Schools check out their polls; learn how other parents feel about important issues.
