As parents, we want nothing more than to do what we can to make our children's first day of school as awesome as it can be. Whether it's your child's first day of school ever or just the first day of a new school year, starting off on a positive note is essential. While you can't control what happens at school, making sure they leave the house with everything they need for a great first day can have a big impact and goes beyond having the right clothes or the trendiest pair of shoes.
