The beginning of the school year is always a special moment for both children and their families – full of anticipation, fresh starts, and excitement. Whether it’s your child’s very first school day or simply a new grade, it’s a great opportunity to make them happy with a thoughtful gift. The right choice can help them step into the year with confidence and enthusiasm.

Practical school supplies that spark joy

A simple but always useful gift is high-quality school supplies. A colorful and durable backpack, a pencil case with their favorite character, new pencils or markers – all these items make everyday school life more fun and comfortable.

Tech tools for learning

For older students, a handy gadget can be the perfect gift – such as a tablet, a smart pen, or quality headphones for e-learning. These support not only studies but also hobbies and extracurricular activities.

Personalized and motivational gifts

Sometimes the best gift is something that feels truly made for the child. For instance, a personalized water bottle with their name, a notebook with an inspiring quote, or custom-designed exercise books. These small touches can spark pride and make school days feel more special.

Hobby-related items

School isn’t just about studying – balance and joy matter too. For a sporty child, new sneakers or training gear might be ideal. For young artists, quality art supplies; for music lovers, sheet music or instrument accessories.

Experiences and quality time

Instead of things, you can also gift experiences – a family trip to the zoo, tickets to an entertainment center, or a trial month at a hobby club. Such gifts create beautiful memories and strengthen family bonds.

A gift that will be remembered

A back-to-school gift doesn’t have to be big or expensive – what matters most is that it’s meaningful for the child and supports their interests and growth. Practical, personal, or emotional gifts can all help kick off the school year with joy and motivation.

When expenses are higher than expected

If school-start costs turn out bigger than planned, a consumer loan from Laen.ee can be a helpful solution. It allows you to cover all the necessary purchases – from backpacks and sports gear to educational gadgets – without paying a large sum all at once. The first loan of up to €10,000 for up to 6 months is available for new customers at 0% interest, making it an affordable and flexible way to prepare your child for school.
