I like that Mark brings up valid points when shopping in for the girls can consider like how heavy things will be caring them or what it will do to their backpack with the amount of books. I'm glad that he's reminding them to be practical well enjoying their time shopping. I love the family dynamic they have and the relationship mark has with his girls. You can truly tell both parents genuinely love and care about their kids in the largest and smallest of ways.
Rule of thumb for Jr High and High school, unless they give you a list in advance, just get folder, notebook, pen, pencil, and maybe a planner and backpack. Then wait till school starts and each teacher will give you a list of what you need at, usually during your first day of school. Then buy. Elementary there is always a list and the stores usually have the list at displayed somewhere.
The last time I ever received a supply list from any teacher was in the 6th grade. 7th thru 12th grade, whatever I wanted. We didn’t need glue, markers, crayons, scissors, colored pencils after the 6th; it didn’t stop me from getting them and keeping them at home for my own arts and crafts needs. If it was something like specific calculator (TI graphing and scientific), it was order through school and brought the money for it. The only list we ever got was a reading list of book for the year. I would get all the books on the list at the beginning of the year, then lie and say I need a certain book for English. Then head to the book store and get like $100 worth of books that I wanted by saying that one of them was the book I needed. I did that like 5 or 6 times a school year for 6 years.
it’s crazy how it’s normal in america to buy brand new school supplies every year even though you still have colouring pencils from the previous years. living in a time of over consumption, it’s really crazy that they don’t think about reusing supplies. for example i still have highlighters i got 7 years ago and they still work but it’s running out now, i also have colouring pencils from 10 years ago that still have heaps of use left in them. the privilege people have in america is crazy and the different ways people were bought up is insane
I would have my kids buy one big binder instead of multiple. Dividers and paper. Some note books. Pencils (#2 and which ever other kind they wish). Highlighters. Erasers. Crayons or colored pencils or both for history or science. Pencil sharpener. And water bottle.
lol ive had the same backpack since my senior year of high school I'm now a junior in college. I also still have the same notebook from my freshman year of college
I missed out on so much videos I can't believe how big Ellie had gotten I think the last time I watched a video was when she enter 5th or 6th grade. Can't believe Emma is a senior now I'm just getting back around to watching my favorite you tubers again because I been trying to work on my channel with my nieces and nephews then I paused working on our channel and watched RU-vid less often.
Omg Ellie looks so cute & like her younger self in this video 🥰 don’t come at me, they both are always beautiful, El just looks so much younger with her cute hairstyle

I think Mark should be the wife for a week, and his wife be the husband for a week. You guys could have a lot of fun with that! I would definitely watch!
I can't believe that Emma is a Senior now and I want to say to you Emma Happy Senior year girl and my advice for Emma is don't skip school because I don't want you to get in trouble by your principal and your parents too 😊
Am glad I stay in the uk all we need to go back to school is pencils but you really don’t need them as the school gives you everything you need my little girl is going to be 11 in November and her school bag is a handbag 👜 as last year her bag was always empty
just wonder, they went to the store to get supplies for school and why does Ellie gets soft stuffy animals? that is not for school?... The year went fly fast Emma is senior this year wow! :)
I like Emma and Ellie All your videos are really good so is Emma I like to watch you guys get a tattoo guy OK much love from your RU-vid curse curse driver in North Hollywood miss Ritchie
I live in Wisconsin and my kid's also go back in September. It's actually a state county by county thing in thing In the US. Not all schools go back at the same time. It's confusing
I live in England and I have friends who were born in the same year as me but were a year below me because their birthdays are September and December therefore they missed the cut off date
