Picking up supplies for the kids? Consider grabbing a gift for their teachers…

Once you cross your kiddo’s supplies off your shopping list, consider snagging a few cleaning supplies as back to school teacher gifts! (Hint: you can get those delivered for free on $35 minimum orders, restrictions apply, with your Walmart+ membership, too!)

Lina picked up a variety of cleaning supplies, including these really cool wipes especially for dry erase boards, that we bet teachers will love. She also grabbed hand soap, multi-surface cleaner, Lysol wipes, and more.

Then she tied on her cute “Here’s to a Clean Start” tags. If you’d like to print them to use, too, you can grab the large one here and the smaller one here.

    Something to keep in mind if planning on gifting teachers with cleaning supplies. Not all school districts allow cleaning products to be brought to school. While I personally would love to be gifted cleaning supplies, the district I work at has a very strict policy regarding cleaning supplies. Only cleaning supplies purchased by the district are allowed to be used.

      Thanks a bunch for mentioning this! 🤗 Good to know that that some school districts have a policy that prohibits any cleaning supplies other than the ones they purchase!

    • Lisa

      Thank you for posting. I’ve been a teacher for 26 years. The last 10 or so we’ve taken cleaning supplies completely off of our list. I can’t even even use my own windex or dry erase spray in my classroom. Has to be district purchased.

      • Trish (Hip Sidekick)

        You’re welcome, Lisa! 💗 Thanks for sharing how things have changed over the years with using your own cleaning supplies in the classroom! 🤗
