Back to School Cleaning Checklist

It’s no secret that back to school season feels a little different this year, but some things haven’t changed! Not only is it still important to practice healthy cleaning habits, those habits are now more crucial than ever in preventing the spread of coronavirus.

But not to worry – just because it’s important doesn’t mean it can’t be easy! We have all the tips and tricks you’ll need to make sure this school year is healthy as ever, whether your little students are learning in person or online.

Clean hands first!

At Handee Pockets, we know better than anyone that cleaning starts with your hands. When it comes to COVID-19 and other viruses, the best way to prevent spread is with good cleanliness habits. Teaching your kids proper handwashing is the best way to make sure they’re healthy, and the rest of the classroom is too!

Clean frequently touched surfaces often

Whether school is in the classroom or at the dining room table, some surfaces get touched more than others. Those surfaces should be cleaned the most often! Luckily, with Handee Pockets Multi Purpose, that process can be done in minutes. All you’ll need is a bit of water and a swipe of the hand!

Limit shared objects

Sharing can be caring, but not always! Sharing objects like school supplies, games, and toys can be a nice gesture, but if those objects could be contaminated by the virus that causes COVID-19, it’s also risky. If you can’t nix sharing completely, be sure to clean between uses. A wipe-down with your favorite Handee Pockets will do the trick!

The school supply list just got longer!

We all know that annual back to school shopping trip to make sure your student has everything they need to succeed! Now, that list doesn’t only include pencils and folders. Face masks, hand sanitizer, and cleaning tools like Handee Pockets are essential cart additions to make sure this year finishes as safely as it starts!



After-school cleanup time

The first stop after school isn’t the snack cabinet anymore! If the kids are coming home from the classroom (or anywhere else!) build good habits. Step one should be getting straight to handwashing! Drop that reusable face mask in the laundry and wipe down any objects that might have been exposed ASAP. And for the bigger kiddos, we recommend taking a few moments to clean off those iPhones with Handee Pockets Glass & Mirror too! With the quick cleaning of Handee Pockets, you’ll be able to jump right into snack time in no time at all.
