 Hi everyone! Welcome back to my channel, Apples and Tiaras. So today I'm doing a giant classroom haul video for you guys. I have been shopping for the last couple of weeks, collecting things on Amazon, collecting things at Target. I've already done my first Target Stop classroom haul, so I'm not going to include any of those same items, but I did go to Target again and get a couple other things. So I have a combination here of TJ Maxx slash Home Goods, Target, and Amazon. And then there's a couple of smaller businesses that I shopped at that I'm going to share a couple of my favorite items from with you guys. Two of the items in this haul are going to be hashtag ads. The items were sent to me for free for reviewing them in this video, and I am going to do that from my whole heart. And then down below there will be a couple of coupon codes, a couple of coupons for you guys to get the items for a discounted price, and I will share that once those items come up. Okay, so I went to TJ Maxx today. Actually, I'm just getting back from there because I wanted to wait until I went to IKEA and I will feature what I purchased from IKEA at the end of this video, but they will just be screenshots of the items because I actually dropped those items off at school today. That way I didn't have to make another trip home and back. So things I got from TJ Maxx slash Home Goods. So I have a lamp in my classroom. It's just a small little lamp and I don't have a lampshade for it. So I bought this. It's just a basic round lampshade. It's actually really big for the lamp, so I think I might switch it out. I have another lamp in here that I'm probably going to get rid of and take it to school. So I'll probably put this lampshade on that lamp and then put that lampshade on the smaller lamp because you'll see once I show you guys my classroom set up. It's like way too big for the lamp, but this was 12 bucks, so got that. And then I needed a little like side table because I bought, and you'll see them in a minute, two saucer chairs that I'm going to use in a little like cozy corner of my classroom, but I needed like a little side table to put a lamp or a plant or some kind of something cute on is like a decorative spot. But I found this little stool from TJ Maxx and it was 10 bucks. So I love the little design on the front and I'm just going to place it next to those two saucer chairs and make it like a cute little side table. Then I do have eight of those blow up their like balance saucer seats. You guys have seen them in my videos before. They're the little inflatable black seats and they're really hard to store because they don't like smush together and I can't like push them down into some place. So I found these two pink baskets from HomeGoods. They were $16 each, which I don't like the price. I think it's a little overpriced, but I can fit four of them in each of these baskets. So I thought that this would be a great way to store them rather than like stacking them up in a corner. I just thought this would be a little bit more appealing. And then if I can fit more than four of them in here, if I can fit like, you know, way more than I can put my other blue cushions in this other one. So I bought two of those. And then the last thing from TJ Maxx HomeGoods is just this mirror and you guys are going to see my camera there, my ring light. This mirror was $16. I have a space under my cabinets where my sink is that's just completely bare. So I thought it would be nice to put a mirror there. That way the kids can see themselves when they're washing their hands and they can, I'm probably going to print some kind of like cute vinyl quote to put on this mirror, probably like right here. And I might even paint the mirror black. Probably not. I'll probably not get to that, but I thought it would be cute. Just a little inspirational thing. Okay, so next I'm going to go into Amazon purchases. So I really thought about what I was going to do as far as like a cozy spot in my room. And I really almost bought like a futon slash love seat, but I decided to go with saucer chairs. So I just bought these from Amazon and you guys, I'm going to try my best to link everything I purchased down in the description box below under the shop with me section. These are just basic black saucer chairs. And I bought two of them. And I decided that saucer chairs would probably be better for me since I can move them and I can fold them up and hide them if for some reason my kids can't handle them. So I bought two of them. And then like I said, I'm going to put them like this and then that little table in between. So I thought that would be super cute. Those were I think 30 bucks on Amazon. But like I said, I will link them down below. So these are the class captain reusable dry erase pockets. I saw Kim from elementary in the mitten purchased these or not. She wasn't purchase didn't purchase them. She was given these and on her class from her classroom wish list. And they're just these reusable animated pockets. And there's 30 of them in here, five to six different colors. And so I thought it would be a great way to save copies. So you can just make five copies I thought for like centers or intervention groups. These would be great. So you can just have the kids write on them dry erase markers. And then it came with some laminating pouch film. So that is a great, great addition. And these were I believe 25 ish bucks. I feel like these were under $25 and for 30 of them. I mean, you can't really beat that. So this was on Amazon and I will promise and I will try to link this down below. Another fun thing I got from Amazon was this Excel mark stamp. And this is for my classroom library. I did get a donor's juice project funded that is going to revamp my classroom library. So I thought that I would stamp all of them with my name so that they're not lost. But I did get a stamp. This came in a couple of days and I expected it to take longer since it was like custom. But all you do is stamp your book and then the kids know that it's your book. And then another cute stamp that I found was this one. And it just says completed myself with one to one support in a group or as a class. This will be really nice to track grading. So like once I grade it, I can put this stamp on there or I can have somebody else run around and stamp all the assignments. And then I can say, okay, stamp in a group. That way when the kids take it home, their parents know like, oh, they got an A plus on this. Well, they did this in class. If it's myself and they see that there's a poor grade on it, maybe they'll be able to differentiate like why their child is struggling. Like, oh, they get, you know, really good grades on certain things and they get really poor on certain things. Well, they did it by themselves or they did it in a group. So I got that. And then this, I'm super excited about this is a soft glow, silent timer and light. It's a little pearl looking light bulb thing. And you can put a timer on it and it will change color for certain timers. So for one minute, it's green for two minutes, it's pink, three minutes, blue, five minutes, red, 10 minutes, steel, 20 minutes, orange and 30 minutes purple. I thought that this would be a great tool to use for like silent work time or like classroom transitions. Like if the light is blue, then you need to be in your desk or if the light is orange, then I'm working with a small group and you cannot come up and talk to me or something like that. And it's, you can charge it. So you just charge it and then leave it out. And it's, you know, you just don't have to have plugged in. So this is from Amazon as well. And then it also works as a nightlight, which is kind of cool, but I got it for this whole purpose of classroom management. So I'm going to try using that this year and see how it goes. Okay, so the next two items are sponsored items. They were sent to me for free to review. So I'm going to do my best to give you my true and honest opinion and the items will be linked down below with a coupon code. So the first item was from KickFix. And these are the fidget bands that go on your students chairs. And I have never used a kick band in my flexible seating life, but I've always wanted to try them. I just never got around to it. So I'm going to open this up really quick and tell you guys what I think. Obviously I'm not going to really give you a true what I feel about them because they're not in my classroom right now, but they feel very like well put together, very sturdy. Oh yeah, they stretch really far. And I'm probably going to use these at my actual desk seats because I don't have chairs that have like four legs. It's like the long, sweepy thing. So I think I'm going to put these across the desks and let the kids use them that way. So this pack came with 10 of them in them. And I believe this was $27. I will put something down here at the true price, but you get 10 of them. So that's a really awesome needle. And then like I said, there should be a coupon code for these down in the description box for you guys. And I am going to put these in my classroom and then do a review on them probably later on just to let you know how they do. But how awesome are these? If you're doing flexible seating and you have fidgety kids, this is a great idea because they can like sit there and stomp on them, they can flick them, they can kick them, all kinds of stuff, which is like a great alternative to a yoga ball. So these are by KickFix and they are the fidget bands. Okay, this next item is super duper cute. So when they contacted me about doing review on this item, I immediately said yes because of how freaking cute it is. So this is an LED pen holder table lamp. How cute is this, you guys? Okay, this was, shoot, I forget how much it was. Okay, I'm going to flash it down here. And when I opened it up, I was so enamored because everybody loves the whole cactus theme right now. But look how stinking cute. So it comes with a charger and then it has a little pencil holder. This is going to be perfect for my little VIP desk. And then you just tap it and it's a light and it has like three different settings. Freaking cute is this, you guys. If I don't use this for my VIP table, I'm totally using it for my own desk. Like how fun would it be? You know those days when you're watching a movie with your class, but you're going to grade while you watch the movie. This is a perfect little desk light. You can put little pens in there. Super sturdy. Comes with like a basic charger port. How stinking cute is this, you guys? I love it. So I'm going to link this down below for y'all as well. There is a coupon that goes with this and it will all be down below for you. Okay, I'm sitting down now because my legs are falling off. All right, so the next couple of items that I have are from different online stores. So this is by Megan Maid and this is a teacher lanyard. How cute is this blush and like marble and gray? It came with a little key chain and a lanyard. So I grabbed that. I forget how much this was, but again, I will try and link below. And then these are from PCB Invites and these are personalized hall passes. So they came with basic black lanyards and I'm going to show you just the one on the front, but basically they're hall passes. And so my teammate, my doormate, and I put both of our names on. We split the price of these. I think it was like 20 bucks and you get two of each one. So you get two boys passes, two girls passes, two office passes, two hall passes, and two nurse passes. And they look like this. And they have all different kinds of designs, but they say our names on them. So if for some reason this were to get lost, it has our name on it and they can return it to us. They wear it around their neck with this cute little band. And again, these are by PCV Invites. They're on Facebook and Instagram. This is not sponsored at all. This is not a hashtag ad. This is like I, Mandy and I bought these. So we're really super excited about those, but PCV Invites personalized little hall passes. How cute. Now I'm going to get into my target purchases getting back on the floor. So for my little saucer chairs, I found some cute little pillows. You guys probably have seen these. I love this one because it has the notebook thing. And then I did get the earth one. Earth one is so cute and I like how it's flat. So super cute. And then I did get a couple more dollar spot items. So I got these plastic letters. These are for a letterboard. I have an actual marquee letterboard in the outside of my classroom. It was built in. So I thought these would be super cute. These are the cursive letters. And then I also bought some teal regular letters. So I have two of each. That way I can have plenty of letters. So I have the teal and the cursive. And then I bought a few magnets. So these are the cute dry erase magnets. And then these are just basic magnetic clip magnets. And then I did find another pack of my reading trackers. And then the last thing I bought were two packs of the adhesive label pockets. These are great for labeling my cubbies and labeling my book bins. So I'm definitely going to be using these because the ones from last year are kind of tarnished. So yeah. Okay you guys. So that is everything that I have purchased from my classroom so far. I will include photos right here. So on Monday the 22nd will be my first day back in my classroom doing my classroom setup. And I will be vlogging that process for you guys. Hopefully you enjoyed this video and you saw some items that you are interested in getting or maybe it sparked an idea for your classroom. But I hope you guys are enjoying your last few bits of summer break. I know I certainly am. I've got a week left before I go back to work.
