Do you want to buy your kids school supplies online? Here is a list of school supply essentials you can get on Amazon.

Sometimes it can be challenging to find all the school supplies you need in-store, (especially if you procrastinate and wait until the end of summer like I do to do back-to-school shopping.)

On the other hand, you may simply prefer to shop online for your child’s school supplies when they or going back to school, or to replenish supplies after the school year is started. (How our kids can lose all 5 packs of pencils we get them at the beginning of the year beats me!)

Regardless of if you’re sending your kids to school, homeschooling or remote schooling, we’ve got you covered with our online list of school supplies below. Each supply has one or more links to where you can find it on Amazon.

Back to School Supply Bundle Kit

If you don’t want to buy all of your child’s school supplies individually, a bundle may be an easier option. And then if there’s anything you need additionally, you can always just get the extra few items.

Supplies Desk Organizer

For children who are doing some remote learning or who homeschool already, this can be helpful in keeping some of their school supplies organized and easier to find. It can also be placed on a child’s desk in school.

Pencils

There are, of course, regular yellow #2 pencils, there are mechanical pencils, and there are stacking point/multi-point pencils.

(Note that some schools are particular about the type of pencils students use in class.)

Pens

Generally students are encouraged to use pens with blue ink or black ink.

Highlighters

I like these highlighters because they come in a pack of different colors and they’re clickable, (so you don’t need to worry about your kids losing the caps.)

Crayons

Usually a 24-pack of crayons is recommended, and you can grab two 24-packs from Amazon here.

Colored Pencils

Colored Markers

You can get washable markers for kids on Amazon here.

Erasers

There are regular erasers, cute erasers designed for kids, and cap erasers (that go on top of pencils.)

Pencil Boxes or Pencil Pouch

Kids Scissors

Notebooks

There are different colored spiral notebooks, 5-subject notebooks, and composition notebooks. (Sometimes teachers specify what type of notebooks they want the students to have on their supply lists.)

Binders

Binders come in different sizes, such as 1 inch, 1.5 inch, 2 inch, and 3 inch.

Paper

There is college ruled or wide ruled.

Some kids also use printer paper or construction paper for various projects/assignments. Or they may need to use a sketchbook for art.

Folders

Index cards

Dividers

Pencil Sharpener

This is a nice electric pencil sharpener that doubles as a pencil holder. Or you can get a pack of regular pencil sharpeners here on Amazon.

Tissue Boxes

Hand Sanitizer & Disinfectant Wipes

Sticky Notes

Backpack

This is a cute girl-themed backpack, and this is a nice backpack for boys.

Desk

Dry Erase Board

Dry Erase Markers

Glue or Glue Sticks

Face Masks

Headphones or Earbuds

Ruler

Calculator or Scientific Calculator

Protractor

Gallon Size Bags

I honestly haven’t figured out why our kids’ schools always had these on the supply list, but sometimes they are, so that’s why I included the link above.

Devices for Schooling

Our kids use Chromebooks, (although thankfully for us their school automatically provides them with one.)

Some parents may get their kids a tablet or laptop to use as well.

Note: I just want to mention here a reminder that whenever we provide our children with technology, we want to be careful to monitor them online including what they can access and who they communicate with. It’s essential to set clear guidelines on how they can and cannot use technology.

This is both for the sake of protecting them from dangers online, and also so they are not getting distracted from doing their work during their school hours.

So those are 37+ school supplies you can buy online. Making sure your child has what they need during this school year sets the stage for them to complete their work successfully.

Are you struggling to keep up with your current schedule, while keeping your kids lives on track? Grab our free sample schedule worksheets here. These are a great resource for parents to organize their day in a realistic way. I based these on a method that has helped me manage my time & home as a mom and stepmom of 4 kids total.

P.S. If I missed any school supplies that are on your child’s list, please comment and let me know so I can add it to the post.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
