Back To School With Giant Tiger
Can you keep a secret? Ok, good! This girl, my oldest daughter Abby, is off to HIGHSCHOOL next week and I am having a very hard time accepting that my firstborn has grown up way too fast!
I have to say though, I have been very lucky so far during her teen years. She has only gave me the silent treatment a handful of times. Abby is a pretty laid back girl which makes shopping for back to school a breeze. Much like her mama, she loves to be comfy – a hoodie and sweats are this girls best friend.
I’m going to admit that I am a total slacker. It is the Friday before school starts and I am still not done our back to school shopping. We went out last weekend to grab the essential new back to school shoes but the long list of supplies is still floating around my messy work desk.
If you are like me and still have back to school shopping to do don’t fret. While back to school shopping can be financially stressful for so many families, Giant Tiger is literally your knight in shinning armor. They are your one-stop shop for all things back to school. From your littles that will be off to school for the very first time to your teens entering high school and even the not-so-little ones heading off to college. Giant Tiger is going to send all of them back to school in style while keeping our parental budget in check!
Aside from their affordable and stylish fashion Giant Tiger also has a great selection of backpacks, lunch bags, binders and more to get your kids back to school ready!
Abby loves to be comfy. She’s always been one for the simple life and these mySTYLE women’s loose knit pants are the perfect comfy pant for her to wear to school. They are light enough to wear in the warmer temperatures yet warm enough for those cool fall mornings ahead.
The matching mySTYLE women’s loose knit popover hoodies are perfect for those mornings that are not cool enough for a jacket. Who am I kidding, what teen wears a jacket right? Even in the winter I feel like I am fighting a losing battle trying to get her to wear a coat.
They also have amazing mySTYLE women’s nubby v-neck tees that are so super soft and only $7. At that price I she can have one of every style they have. They are perfect for laying under a flannel long sleeve in the fall or a nice chunky sweater.
Giant Tiger recently introduced 3 new children’s clothing lines just in time for back to school. Not only are all three super fun and fashionable which the kids will love, they are also super affordable and durable which us parents appreciate.
Monkey Bars
While Bella is not yet attending school the Monkey Bars line outfits our little boys and girls from sizes 2 through 6x. It is a brand that is made to withstand our energetic and sometimes rough kids.
Bella & Birdie
Hailee loves all things fashion and the new Bella & Birdie line has not let her inner diva down. It is creative, cool and confident clothing for your girls in sizes 7 through 14.
For as long as I can remember Hailee has always loved dresses. Even in the dead of winter this child would fight me to wear a dress to school. When she laid eyes on the Bella & Birdie dress that Giant Tiger sent her she was in love. It is perfect on its own or even when paired with a solid legging for those cool fall days. The pattern is bright and fun which totally suits Hailee.
Survival Gear
I am a mom of three girls but I am also an Aunt to two nephews. Giant Tiger’s new Survival Gear line is fun, fearless, and for adventure clothing for your boys in sizes 8 through 16. Last time I was in my local Giant Tiger I was totally checking out the cool stuff for my nephew Chase.

Jennifer P. says
I don’t really have a favourite back to school memory of my own, but my favourite back to school memory is of my oldest daughter when she moved on from preschool to kindergarten. On the walk to school, she skipped up the street way ahead of me the whole time, so excited to start full time school. I wanted to take some first day of “big school” photos, and she obliged, but she was like “Mom, I just want to get to school!” And then when we finally got there she gave me the quickest hug and kiss and ran into the school, so excited to be there. Here I was worrying about her moving on from part time preschool to full day school, and she was more than ready. It really made my heart happy! Every year since she has been just as eager to go back to school, I just love it. It makes me happy dropping her off somewhere that I know she wants to be.
