This post is sponsored by the Back to School promotion at Publix. The opinions and text are all mine.
My daughter Summer is headed off to preschool next month, so we are in full-on mode! In addition to having one of my children starting school in August, I’ll also be having a baby in September. Since our family is about to grow, I’ve been making a game plan to make school days as simple and easy as possible. I’m so excited for Summer to learn and grow at school, but I’m also preparing for lots of extra bath times due to lengthy playground sessions and extra sniffles from back-to-school germs!

Back to School Beauty and Hygiene Products for Kids
I know Summer’s going to have a ton of fun learning, making friends, and playing at her new preschool, and I’m so excited to see her blossom. With that being said, I’m not so excited about the back-to-school germs when we’re going to have a newborn in the house! After long days filled with fun in the dirt on the playground, hugging new friends, and sharing school items, I’m imagining lengthy baths each and every day.
We’re already stocked up on soap and body wash, so I picked up new bottles of the Dove Hair Therapy Shampoo and Conditioner for Summer. I’ve always been a huge fan of Dove hair care, and I can’t believe Summer’s hair has finally grown enough to start using big girl products! This shampoo and conditioner keep her blonde locks silky smooth, and I love that Ryan and I can easily use these products too. Through 8/13/21, you can get or your choice at your local Publix!

Back to School Medicine and Sanitary Supplies
Being exposed to new germs at school is a totally normal and healthy thing for kids, but I’m all for keeping the viruses to a minimum in our household with a little baby around! When I was at this week, I grabbed fresh bottles of three of our must-have medicine and hygiene products: Purell Hand Sanitizer in different sizes for our car, home, and my purse, and Children’s Tylenol and Motrin for the inevitable fevers and sniffles that will be brought home.
Through 8/13/21, you can score , and you can get . If you prefer Advil, get $2 OFF Any 1 Children’s or Infants’ Advil .5–4-oz or 24-ct. We always go through multiple bottles of all of these products each year, so I’m so happy I can stock up while they’re on sale and save money!
While we were buying our medicine and hand sanitizer, I realized it was probably a good idea to buy a few sanitizing products for our home as well. When sniffles are going around our home, I always try to sanitize doorknobs, high-touch areas, and surfaces frequently with Clorox Wipes.
During the Back to School promotion, , so I grabbed containers of my favorite coconut and lemon scents for our home. We are definitely fully prepared for any back-to-school germs that come our way!
