Homeschool Supplies and Distance Learning Must-Haves

Supplies for Schooling at Home

As many Americans settle in to work from home for the foreseeable future, kids and parents across the country are entering the brave new world of distance learning and homeschooling. And with this change comes a stronger than ever demand for homeschool supplies across the country. 

What are some of the homeschool supplies parents and children will need to finish out the school year?

Traditional School Supplies

Just because kids are no longer in classrooms doesn’t mean they no longer need traditional classroom necessities. Calculatorspencil sharpenersdrawer organizers, and other regular classroom supplies are still necessary to promote an environment that both fosters normalcy and ensures kids have supplies they need to complete their work.

Critical Computer Components

Distance learning means lots of schooling online for many kids. While they may already have a laptop or desktop to work from, there’s a good chance they’re missing some of the necessary accessories. 

Computer peripherals and networking components are a must-have for kids to stay connected and learning without any interruptions. If they’re using a notebook, you’ll want to make sure to supply them with a spare notebook charger—just in case. Speaking of notebooks and laptops, a laptop riser can make keeping track of documents easy while using a notebook or laptop.

Other Essentials

Important supplies don’t stop there. Power protection and management are important to keep in mind too. That’s why stocking up on items like battery backups and surge protectors is so important. That last thing anyone wants is a fried device or lost data when they’re homeschooling. 

And if your customers have younger kids, tablets are a great way to keep them engaged with kid-friendly learning that better suits their smaller hands.
