My favorite part is how crisp and new everything is: new pencils, clean new book covers, new teachers, and a new cohort of learners. A fresh start!

My favourite thing about back to school is definitely shopping for school supplies. Nothing beats fresh, white paper, empty binders, and new pens. I think that's all you can smell in classrooms on the first day back-new school supplies!

What a neat give away! That is a very neat uniform, it looks just like the ones they used in the movies.

My favorite part of going back to school is:
Meeting up with old friends you may not have seen a lot, or at all, over the summer break.

This outfit is adorable!! My favorite part of going back to school was always getting to buy new markers, pencils and fun supplies.

My favorite thing about "back to school" time is the fresh supply of, well, school supplies! I love the new pens, notebooks, binders, planners, etc. that go along with my classes (I'm going back to school this fall) and the pencils, crayons, backpacks, and freshly printed worksheets for my preschool students. There's something about those fresh, blank pages that holds so much promise. I don't know why, but I can't help but smile when I see them.

That uniform is so cute! Will the winning uniform be Griffindor, or something else? My favorite part of going back to school is shopping for my children new clothes LOL that and how quiet the house is on that first day.

My favorite thing about going back to school is being able to go to the school library again and stock up on new books!

My favorite part of going back to school is seeing all of my friends again. Over the summer, it's hard to get everyone in the same place, but when we're all at school, we're guaranteed to see each other.

My absolute favorite thing about "back to school" is the idea of a fresh, clean start! Everything feels new and crisp to me....Fall is right around the corner, the smell of pumpkin and cinnamon and best of all....brand new school supplies, clothes and of course, the lunchbox!! I remember picking out my pencil box when I was little....looking for the PERFECT one and filling it with all of my school supply goodies. I can still remember opening that school box and smelling the newness of the pencils and crayons. My all-time fave lunchbox was my Scooby Doo, tin one....covered with with the Mystery Van and the whole gang. Now, it's come full circle and I get to enjoy back to school with my kiddo's. My dd gets absolutely crazy excited when Target puts all the school goodies out!! Like mother, like daughter!!

That is one of the cutest doll outfits I've ever seen! My favorite thing about getting back to school is getting new school books and learning new things each year.

I actually love going back to school. I'm starting to get the feeling again now here, even though the next semester doesn't start until August 31st. There is just something about learning in the fall that has such zest and a crispness. Football season, leaves falling - it's all perfect. Plus the cute back to school clothes. :-)
And I think that Hogwarts outfit is to die for.

Veronica K. said...

There are so many aspects of the back-to-school season that I love, but my ultimate favorite has to be the first day of school. The look of excitement in my daughter's eyes as she happily, yet nervously enters her new classrom, meets her new teacher, and sees friends new and old. My husband always has to pull me away and let her go. It's bittersweet in a way, but it's my favorite...

My favourite part of going back to school would have to be marching band starting up. Ah, the pleasure of having no free Friday evenings or Saturdays all becuase of marching around in the sun carrying an instrument that squeaks when you play 4 times forte.

Christine D said...

My Favorite part of the going back to school is the count down till my kids are home again for Summer Break! I miss them during the School Year!

My favourite part of back-to-school is shopping! I cannot wait to add new pieces to my wardrobe and pick out folders for all my subjects!

My favorite part of going back to school was seeing my friends and finding out what they'd been up to all summer

The nice thing about going back to school is seeing your friends and making new ones.

My favorite part about going back to school is feeling really good about myself. I work really hard every summer to change the things I don't like about myself or my bad habits. When I go back to school, I feel like a new person and yet the same old Cassie. New school clothes and supplies are definitely one of the best parts too! Plus who doesn't want to go back to see their old friends. I think going back to school, for me, means starting a new, better part of my life.

I like getting to a new grade. It is so cool! :D

I don't have a fav thing about school I like it all.I hope I win,but good luck to everyone else

Gomunk said...

When I was in school, my favorite thing about going back to school was the football games. When you go to high school in the southeast you learn to love Friday night football. Now that I'm parent, my favorite thing about going back to school is that since my youngest one is starting school this year I can go back to school full time. I've been school shopping for me, DH, and both kids.

My favorite part of going back to school is watching my kids rush around getting ready for the bus the first morning. Their excitement is contagious. I also love walking them down to the bus stop, with their new backpacks bursting with all their school supplies.

Claire said...

i like going back to school and seeing all my friends and meetincg new one especially since i am going into middle school

Denise said...

My favorite thing about back to school is seeing my youngest running toward the bus without looking back at me. From clingy toddler to confident preschooler is awesome!

Mandy said...

My daughter Ashley says her favorite thing about going back to school is doing school plays and seeing all her friends that she doesn't see during the summer.

My favorite thing about going back to school is finding out what books we are going to read. I love reading the books my English classes pick so I usually get started as soon as I get the book list!

Unknown said...

My favorite part of starting school is looking at fall catalogs and picking out my new school clothes! Especially anything plaid.

Gnomeful Things said...

My favourite part is taking my girls shopping on their own special day. It's so much fun to see them pick out what they want to wear and the go to the fitting room and model and twirl.

Definitely the new school supplies. I still remember going to Toys R Us in 1969 as a soon-to-be third-grader and getting a groovy Gemini notebook. I'm a Gemini. The notebook was shiny black plastic with bright pink, yellow and green symbols of twins. Until then notebooks were mostly covered with denim, so this was a major step forward in school supplies. I can still smell the shiny vinyl. I was so excited to bring it to my first day in class!

Cute uniform! Emily looks almost just like Ginny Weasley! (except for Ginny having brown eyes and Emily having blue, of course. :) )

My favorite part of going back to school is the challenges that come with the classes. They keep me pre-occupied, which is much better than resting at home for two months straight, and feeling as if you are wasting 8 weeks of the year.
Next year is going to be a very challenging year for me, I hope. I'll be taking yearbook, joining the school's musical and maybe even joining the student council. :)

What I like about going back to school: You can study and report on such subjects as lituature and History, and discuss them with your friends!

Unknown said...

My favorite thing is the wonderful opportunity to make new friends. With the beginning of every school year or semester you get to meet new people, these people can be wonderful acquaintances or long life friends.

margaretmildred said...

I loved new school supplies, drawing designs on my new folders, seeing who would be in my classes, and picking out what to wear the first day. I think my favorite thing was football season starting, and playing in marching band. I would love for my doll to have such a wonderful new uniform for her first day at Hogwarts!

bridgetroll said...

I would love to have this!!

bridgetroll said...

alright for got to say my favorite thing about going back to school was buying new school supplies :-) Now that I'm no longer in school I love taking my children to pick out their supplies.

My favorite part of going back to school was meeting up with all my friends, getting to see/hang out with them almost every day and showing each other the new school stuff we got.

Neesha and Dustin said...

I love the excitement of getting to know all my new students (I'm a teacher and a student). On the first day, they're full of wonder and excitement. They're enthusiastic about the class and what they'll learn and I can't wait to see what they will end up, inevitably, teaching me, as well. It's the start of new relationships and opening minds. So wonderfully exciting that first day, before the pressure of homework, due dates, tests and keeping up with it all. But before all of that is the possibilities and hopes that rest on each student on the very first day. Thankfully. If only it could always be the first day.

happykim said...

My favorite part about back to school, is watching my children walking together down the street to the bus stop. From behind, they look so sweet, wearing their new uniforms, carefully chosen backpacks strapped on, talking to one another. It makes me want to run after them and give them all an extra hug! I always think to myself, "remember this moment."

Aaryana said...

My favorite part of the new school year is new school supplies! I love new crayons and colored pencils and notebooks!

Sarah said...

I'm a school supply junkie, too.
Gosh, 25 cent crayons make me SWOON.

Great outfit. How nice you are!

i'm no longer in school, but when i was, my favorite thing about going to school was seeing all my friends again.

Unknown said...

Add me to the list of school supply junkies. The only thing I liked about going back to school was getting all new stuff for the new year. I'd pack and re-pack my book bag obsessively the weeks before school and count down the days until I could actually write in the various notebooks I'd bought.

Sophie Amélie said...

My favorite part of going back to school has to be the new school supplies! I love the smell of fresh notebook paper (call me weird, I know) and the "girls' day out" my mom and I would spend together as we purchased everything i'd need-including a new outfit or two. As I got older-middle/high school age-I looked forward to seeing my new class schedule, which teachers I had, and then, of course, comparing my schedule with those of my friends.

But of course I just love the season! Autumn is my favorite season, and I often associate it with back-to-school.

LindaB said...

I also really loved getting new school supplies! I even enjoyed getting them for my kids. Now that my youngest is in college, I guess my favorite thing now is having a quiet cup of coffee with my newspaper in the morning. BUT that doesn't make up for missing my "baby" being around to tell me about her day.

My favorite part of going back to school is that I don't have to go and my kids do!! Seriously, I love to go shopping for all their school stuff. I do it all year and get great deals. That is the best part, good deals.

Mine is getting new school supplies! Especially this year, because I'm now in college and got to get stuff to furnish my dorm!

My favorite part of going back to school is seeing how grown up and mature my students have gotten over the summer. It's amazing how big a difference three months can make!
