Featured Review: Brawny Tough Jingle Wrap

Check out this featured review of the Brawny Tough Jingle Wrap from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and child care provider from Capentersville, IL:

5-Star Review / 4.8-Star Overall
"These are REALLY brawny; tough!"

Pros: Easy to Use, Durable, Good Sound Quality, Engaging, Lasting Fun, “Safe”, “Sturdy”

Best Uses: Imaginative Play, All Ages, Entertainment, Young Children, Creative Development, Special Needs

Review: "The kids and I love the jingle bells! We have stuck them together to wear as belts, hats and necklaces! I bought enough for the kids to wear on their ankles and wrists! We play a game where one child makes a jingle while the others close their eyes and tries to guess who is jingling. I gently tap the child chosen so they know to jingle. We have measured how long they are all stuck together and sorted them as they either have a blue or red band. We have made a small jump rope. They are so sturdy!"

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."


Jingle all the way to great rhythm sessions with our awesome adjustable wrist bells. Made of Brawny Tough fabric, Jingle Wraps feature a special hook and loop closure for an easy on, easy-off fit. The 4 large jingle bells are riveted on to take the most enthusiastic of jingling. 8" long, colors will vary.

Featured Review: Easy-Grip Lowercase Alphabet Stampers, 3" - Set of 26

Check out this featured review of the Easy-Grip Lowercase Alphabet Stampers, 3" - Set of 26 from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and teacher from California:

5-Star Review / 4.7-Star Review

Pros: Easy to Use

Best Uses: Creative Projects, Young Children, School

Review: "My students love these stamps and I use them almost daily, they are the perfect size for names and sight words and word families. The ink doesn't gunk up between the sections of the letters so each stamp is a clear letter which is a real plus with little ones. We have stamped on plain paper and over tempera paint with teacher supply stamp pads and the images are distinguishable."

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."

Easy-Grip Stampers let children stamp with ease. The large grip-knob allows effortless manipulation of the stamper. The top of the knob is sized just right for a child's palm with the right amount of space under the knob for little fingers to nestle around for a confident grip. A mark on top ensures the stamper is aligned correctly. You'll love the quality, your students will love the creative designs! Durable, easy-to-clean, high density foam. Clear, plastic 3" base helps children see exactly where they're stamping. Foam is fastened securely to the sturdy plastic handle. Activity guide full of ideas to enhance curriculum. Convenient, clear plastic storage carrying case. Letter recognition is made easy.

Featured Review: 3 Story Telling Dice with 30 Cards

Check out this featured review of the 3 Story Telling Dice with 30 Cards from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and educator from Calumet, MI:

5-Star Review / 5-Star Overall"Love this for eliciting expression!

Pros: Engaging, Interactive, Educational, Durable, Lots of Fun, “Flexible”

Best Uses: Older Children, Young Children, “Group”

Review: "These cubes have become one of my favorite therapy tools. My elementary students love playing with these, and I hear many requests to use them. I often move to the floor in a circle, since they are a bit large for table use. The picture cards are great, but you can add other cards you have or even make some new ones to expand the cubes use. I created some for working on description, parts of speech, categories, phonological awareness skills, and social/pragmatic language activities. Very happy I made this purchase : ) "

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."


Unique stories every time you roll the dice. Develops imagination, encourages discussion and creativity, increases vocabulary, links beginning, middle and end. Set includes 3 dice, activity guide, 10 Character cards, 10 Setting cards and 10 Event/Action cards. Dice measure 5" cubed. Gives the child the opportunity to start with basic information and then use her background knowledge and imagination to create a simple story. Use just 1 dice or all three, depending on the child's ability. Use the cards included or have the children create cards. Cards easily slide in and out of dice pockets. All ages.

Featured Review: 2-Way Acrylic Panel Easel

Check out this featured review of the 2-Way Acrylic Easel Panel from a very satisfied Discount School Supply customer and parent from Portland, OR:

5-Star Review / 4.4-Star Overall

"Love it."

Pros: Fun, Creative, Glides Smoothly

Best Uses: Fun With Kids, School, Art

Review: I have two- and four-year-olds. On nice days I pull out the easel in the front yard, give each kid three different activity paints (small amounts in plastic cups) and chubby brushes, and turn on garden hose (just tiny little stream). Oh man, they have fun! Of cause, they have to wear bathing suits for this. There is no fights, no looking for mom/dad, no crying, no running away - solid 40 min of fun for them with me and my husband enjoying time together. This is what they do: paint with brushes and fingers on the easel and themselves, delute paint and splash it on themselves and easel, play as if they are in an art store selling/buying paints, play as if they are in a cafe selling/buying juice, then circle repeats, and it really goes on and on. By the time they are done, the girls, the easel, paint brushes and cups are almost clean. I am so happy we have this easel, and so are my girls.

Bottom Line: "Yes, I would recommend this to a friend."


Non-rust, metal powder-coated frame is ideal for indoors or out. Clear acrylic panels allow children to paint directly onto easel surface - no paper needed! Includes sturdy plastic tray with drain holes, red plastic clips and sturdy, metal powder-coated frame. 2-way easel measures: 23"L x 29-1/2W x 45"H. Each side adjusts to convert to toddler size easel. Can be used indoors or outdoors. Easel is easy to clean - hose down or wash with soap and water.
