Back To School Checklist for Pony Mad Kids!

The summer holidays may only just be beginning but we all know they will soon fly by. Before you know it it will be time to dust off the school bag, check the uniforn still fits and get ready for the start or a new term. If your child lives and breathes horses, why not make going back to school a little more exciting by ensuring you have some of our equestrian themed accessories for pony mad kids! 

1. Horse Themed Backpack - A good quality backpack is one of the most important back to school essentials. Look for a backpack that is an appropriate size for your child with comfortable padded straps and space for their books and smaller items. 
2. Horse Pencil Case - A spacious case helps keeps pens, pencils and stationery accessories organised throughout the day whether completing tasks at school or homework at their bedroom desk. There is also the option of buying a completely filled triple pencil case packed with every pen and accessory you could dream of so nothing is forgotten.
3. Horse Water Bottle - Keeping hydrated throughout the school day is very important and a reusable horse themed water bottle is both practical and eco friendly. The Miss Melody Blossom Drinks Bottle and the Tyrrell Katz Water Bottle are both very popular designs, with the latter holding slightly less fluid so better for younger children. 
4. Lunch Bag or Box - An essential if your pony mad child takes packed lunches to school and an easy way to add a touch of horsey style to their school day. The Horse Dreams Lunch Box is currently reduced so a great buy for the new term! 
5. Horse Bag Charm - Small accessories can make a school bag extra special so why not add one of these mini plush pony pendants as a bag charm. A cute little extra that makes a lovely surprise for a pony lover at the start of term. Can also be used for keys if they have a house key for walking home at the end of the school day.  
6. Horse Stationery - Every horse lover enjoys adding some horsey themed items to their stationery collection. Get ready for school with pens, pencils, notebooks and even a diary to keep organised. 
7. Scrunchies - Keep hair neat and tidy with a pony themed hair scrunchie! Choose from the colourful beaded hair tie for Miss Melody fans or one of our pretty material designs handmade in the UK.  

Starting a new school year can be exciting but also a little nerve wracking so some horse themed surprises can help ease the transition. Your little one will look forward to showing her new goodies off to her friends. If your child's school is strict on what can be taken on to the premises why not focus on creating her a horsey haven at home where she can focus on practicing school spellings, writing and reading. Kit out her desk with pretty pony themed stationery to encourage her to get that homework finished and in on time. With just a few accessories a little equestrian inspiration can help your child stay motivated and keep their love of horses close by, even when they are away from the stables.
