What’s in the wallet?  How Voice editors’ children chose products for school.

What’s in the wallet? How Voice editors’ children chose products for school.

Preparing for September 1st is a real quest for parents. The shopping list seems endless. What if you let the child pull himself together?

The Voice editors decided to take a chance and gave their children complete freedom in choosing school supplies. And “Yandex Market” came to their aid, where the “first-class sale” of school goods began on August 1. As the children filled the baskets, we found out what they thought should be in the backpacks.

The choice of Maria, 11 years old, passed in 5th:

“A new padded backpack is my dream, probably since the middle of primary school, I chose it as the first thing. Well, this one fits better. In 5th grade, new subjects are added, i So I need notebooks that have the names of the lessons already written on them. Mine are bright with cheerful designs, they cheer up immediately.

The covers are also in my basket, for some reason they always end at the wrong time.

My pencil case and stationery are Korean style. I love stores with an Asian vibe, they have a lot of cool stuff. I also save keychains and notebooks with pictures of K-Pop groups in my favorites, which I will buy later with my pocket money.

A box lunch is required, do not eat school food. I also added a case for the phone and wires for charging in the basket. The phone is still with me, I forgot something – I immediately call my parents. For not relaxing while I’m in class (Laughs)”.

You don’t need extra
“The diary is no longer necessary, the tasks are in electronic form. Although I still write my homework on scraps of paper, out of habit: in primary school, we filled in a diary.

Life hack from the Voice editorial team: if the child takes a snack with him, you can take a backpack equipped with a lunch box and a water bottle. At the same time, all items will be in the same style.

Comment from mom (Anastasia, beauty and health editor): “My daughter has been folding her backpack since first grade. She is quite responsible in this regard, during the four school years she forgot something two or three times. But we always bought school supplies together, I controlled that process. And they did it in a mall: consider it a day thrown out of life, maybe more than one, if everyone didn’t buy it immediately. The idea of ​​online shopping without parental involvement turned out to be great. Masha assembled the basket in just 15 minutes. We then chose and added school clothes and shoes together. It remained only to press the “Order” button and pick up purchases at the Yandex Market order pick-up point, which is in our neighbor’s house. While Maria was trying on shoes and blouses there, I remembered my school days, when my parents and I went to the clothing market. That was the challenge. Who has changed clothes, standing barefoot on a piece of cardboard in the corner of the tent, he will understand me. Kids today, I think, are lucky.

The choice of Stéphanie, 9 years old, went to 3rd:

“I love to draw, I often draw during breaks, so felt-tip pens and spring-loaded notebooks are always with me. And also multi-colored pens with a thin stem, I have beautiful handwriting. I will carefully store all this in a pencil case. I’m going to add two phone cases, I love changing them, and pink headphones (so everyone knows they’re mine) Let the backpack be pink too and add some stickers to decorate the notebooks.

I will also need a small bottle of water, a bag of gumballs and a nice bag for my dance uniform – I have variety dances after school.

You don’t need extra

“I will not take toys, they are certainly not necessary at school.”

Voice editors life hack: A filled pencil case will help you if you forget to buy something at the office in the hustle and bustle.

Comment from mum (Ekaterina, special projects manager):
“I prefer not to delay in ordering school supplies and always do it in advance to be sure to have time to buy everything. Stefania is a very creative person and her choice is always something amazing, I’m happy to see what kind of things she chooses for school. The idea of ​​online shopping is, of course, wonderful: you don’t need to run around the shops, waste a lot of time and nerves, you can just sit in an armchair in an embrace, scroll through the screen, put hearts and throw the things you like in the basket.

Vybor Semyon, 9, moved up to 3rd:

“I found the backpack I wanted: light but big and with lots of pockets of different sizes. So that everything fits: textbooks, notebooks, a pencil case, a lunch box, a bottle of water, a telephone, money and a few small things. Propeller just isn’t enough to get away from the math lesson. Hey, they don’t make such wallets yet.

Pens, erasers, lunch box – whether it’s all with cartoon characters or superheroes. I also looked at the Minesraft toys to trade with the boys at break times. And the mini-cruiser has been put aside, I hope Mom approves. Many of our children travel to school on scooters or skateboards. I want it too.

It would be cool to go to light school! Too bad we can’t get rid of the textbooks.”

Life hack from Voice editors: Many people forget change bags. There are models with shoulder cords. Such a bag can also be a mini-backpack.

Mom’s comment (Ekaterina, Voice Marketing Manager):

“It definitely got a lot easier for me when we moved to online fees! We were already going on a trip to the sea, and now we are preparing for school. Turns out I spent way more money when we went shopping together in stores, Semyon is still that shopaholic, everything in me! I myself will not leave the office department without a purchase. It’s hard not to be tempted, because in my childhood there was no such variety. I liked that Yandex Market has an alternative product in the selection, so there is an opportunity to save money without giving up what you want. Well, if the amount is still tangible, you can split the payment by dividing it into several parts. Quickly issued and without overpayments.”

Tips to help make the tuition process smooth and cost effective.

– think over with your child in advance what you need to buy for school and make a list of necessary things in advance;

– if your children are no longer in first grade, you can discuss the purchase budget with them;

– choose things together with your child, it will be easier for you to find a compromise, then everything that will be purchased will be used and worn;

– making purchases on market places. These are universal platforms where products of different categories from different sellers are presented. There are often sales, discounts and other promotions here (in Yandex Market they additionally give Plus points for purchases that can be spent on other Yandex services);

– You can also use online filters and compare selected items, study product reviews. And courier delivery to a minimum simplifies the fee process at school.
