For older kids, notebooks are a necessity, but if you’re a paper lover like me, your kids probably have a stack of their own as well. Notebooks all over the house means the ability to draw, write, doodle, and sketch whenever necessary. These paper products will help your kids start the school year off right, and hopefully inspire them!

If you have a girly dreamer in the family, these adorable notebook/journal, made with 100% post-consumer recycled notebooks and printed with veggie inks, will let her pour out her dreams. These wirebound notebooks are more practical for class, made from 50% recycled and 30% post-consumer fiber that contains bright, lined paper with low glare (who knew?). Comes in 1- to 5-subjects for your high schools juggling multiple subjects. And little scientists will love to carry these buggy notepads, also made with 100% recycled content and unbleached paper.

Of course, there’s always an old standby. This classic Composition Notebook with recycled materials works for moms too! Happy writing
