USA School Supplies FAQs (Please read this before you go down below to say anything): 1. Omg y'all please calm down about my mistake with the country of origin for the scissors. 2. I bought one of everything on a K-5 supply list for a local elementary school. All items will be delivered and donated to the school. 3. Yes, the schools in the USA really do ask parents to buy things. 4. Yeah, wow, that’s crazy. 5. No, we don’t like it, either, but that’s life. 6. A great deal of the money allocated to “education” in the USA never makes it to the teachers, students, and schools for basic supplies. That is not a subject for this channel. We’re here to relax, not debate stuff. You can do that elsewhere. 7. No matter what country you live in, you have to pay for dumb things, too. 8. No, parents are not punished if they either can’t or won't bring in these supplies. No consequences await those who don’t contribute. However, the teachers and other school staff members often pay for supplies out of their own pocket when no one provides them, and that can cost hundreds/thousands of dollars a year. Hopefully, by donating these things, we can help prevent at least a little bit of that. 9. No, nobody cares to hear how awesome your country is. It's not a contest. No matter where you live in the world, you'll find people who are struggling. Maybe you can take that all-caps energy and help someone in your area. A little kindness goes a long way. 10. The Ziploc bags are used for a variety of things in the classroom. It may seem like a strange request, but they come in handy to store little bits of stuff, fragile projects, and dirty clothes, among other things. 11. I will continue to do these back-to-school shopping trips to help out my community every year, as long as I am financially able to do so. In a perfect world, it wouldn’t be necessary to buy any of these things, but we don’t live in a perfect world. I want to help as many people as I can, for as long as I can. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s relax and enjoy some school supplies. 😊

[@ashleighbrindley]

Love the pin 📍 lol as a kid who's mom couldn't financially support her teachers always we ALL donated our time. I remember helping my teachers after school while I waited for my mom to pick me up after work. Id go to classrooms and help cutting laminated decor and class sets for units and during summer would help decorate classrooms and I helped with a lot of these things for my elementary teachers until I was out of school. And as a teacher's pet let me tell you you are 100 percent right in what supplies the teachers prefer! 😂😂😂 love your channel Mary you do so much good

[@andreaquinn8224]

Go Mary ! Well said and thank you for everything you do to help people😊

[@ashcooper9423]

Well they make for really relaxing videos I love the sound of plastic and paper, thats why I love your craft videos so much! Appreciate the dedication 😁

[@MMNNOOPPQQRR]

LOVE your videos and your heart! Thank you for being such a kind, caring, supportive person for your community! ❤

[@gemmaab3]

These are my favorite video every year that I look forward to, never stop making these🤩I still watch the first fall endeavor haul to this day!

[@thasunchilddd]

Aw. I appreciate this. I grew up in a pretty poor house and getting me school supplies was never important to my parents. So I always relied on the people like you with big heart who donated and helped out. It makes a difference. A real big difference. Looking back now I want to do the same and pay it forward. Thank you and all the others who donate their time and money to keep the youth supplied and ready for learning.

[@hannahryan3535]

I’m not American, but I am a teacher, and I want to send a big “Thank You” your way for doing this every year! Public education matters and having people support it in the ways that make sense for their communities is very validating to see!

[@CorgisRunTheWorld]

Not only are these videos incredibly relaxing, but it's wonderful that you're able to help so many students by doing this! 👏

i love this!! you’re so thoughtful to gift all this to a school in need!

[@mica_m8]

Mary I love your school supplies videos. I think it’s wonderful that you donate every year.

[@stsp8765]

I am an American teacher. The fact that you do this is SO extremely appreciated. Each year we are given a set amount ofmoney to purchase these items, but of course we go through them throughout the year. I mean kids seem to eat these pencils somehow?! I spend money each year out of my own pocket for these items, and I am happy to do so to make my classroom functioning for my kids. But these donations by families make things so much easier. Thank you Mary!

[@paolatomei7772]

Good morning Mary, I am Italian, from me families have to buy all the school supplies for the children, as well as other school supplies. In some, toilet paper was also requested. So I understand very well your desire to collaborate on this.

[@rochellr5398]

Thank you as always Mary for your consistent hard work and kindness in making these videos ❤️ I’ve been watching for at least 6 years now (although I lose count!) and I don’t know how I ever fell asleep before I stumbled across your beautifully funny kind and calming videos! Thank you x 10000000 ❤

i’m in my last semester of college and haven’t needed to follow a list of school supplies since middle school, so i always love these videos just to see what’s changed ! the start of the school year is always so anxiety inducing for me but i loved shopping for school supplies as a kid because it was the one thing i had control over

[@celeste4352]

Man this took me back. Back to school shopping was always equal parts exciting and dreadful (it meant summer was about to end!). Thanks for donating to those in need!

As an Irish person it's wild to me that parents are asked to provide school supplies

@@Historyofeverything912Cali here. When I was younger, they provided everything. Until I hit jr high, then we had to buy everything. But I also remember in Jr. High they stopped sports for 2 years because they had no funding for it. When they brought it back, parents had to pay for all uniforms, shoes, etc. My dad was mad when he had to spend $100+ on a scientific calculator. 😂 Now I have to buy supplies for my kids and good Lord! I spend around $600 for two kiddos backpacks, and full supplies.

Actually, I live in New England. I live in Massachusetts…. and I remember vividly getting school supplies bought by my parents… like even in kindergarten, they have you bring your own glue your own markers everything…. But also a lot of times up here. Teaches will be looking for tissues, paper towels, clean it like, it does happen in Massachusetts too

[@ccbl23]

I get excited for all the back to school supplies videos! They’re always my favorite! Yes it stinks that they can’t be provided but it’s so fun to shop for them and donate! I always get things when they’re on sale and use my employee discount but it would be so fun to get everything on the list.

Heyy! Fiskars is a Finnish brand, which is close to Norway but not Norvegian. It is actually the oldest still operating company in Finland and the brand was born in the ”Fiskari” village in Finland. Fiskars is swedish and it means ”From Fiskars”. Hope this helps, great video! 💓

[@kjunpreacher]

Great video. It might sound a bit strange, but I love to shop for school supplies and office supplies. 🤪

[@livl9455]

So kind and awesome of you to get all of those extra feminine hygiene products as a bonus! I remember feeling so awkward about it at school sometimes. I’m sure those products will make a big difference for some kids 💝

I don't know what it is about this particular video but your whispers were extra sleep inducing. Last thing I remember is the crayons section. Love your videos!

[@MeenieBandit]

Hi Mary. I am currently in labour with my first. Listening to this, is helping keep me calm & get some sleep. Thank you x

[@Amie0046]

We used to save the broken ones and shred them on a cheese grater and then mix diff colors in muffin tin (bake in oven) so we had big crayons....or shred ro iron over leaves in the fall. Def better quality crayons. The others don't write well

[@kellymarques8655]

I forgot all about that! We did the same is elementary school (40 yrs ago eek!) thanks for triggering a great memory!

[@lauramaldonado5591]

My mom was a single mom at 18 raising two kids My brother 2 and me 1 This was 1962 and you know back then if you got pregnant and from an Italian family you got married Well my dad was a cheater and they divorced So I understand the struggle you had But like you she was a great mom Still is She somehow always got us our school supplies and I always loved getting them All new and pretty but I hated when a crayon would break No matter what I tried,glue tape nothing worked 😂 Yes I did that with the glue too. We also had to have paste.

So I’m a baby boomer and a long time watcher of all of your wonderful videos. And I’m watching you and I’m in my 60s and I’m like holy crap they don’t have chalkboards anymore? Back in the 70s they had overhead projectors because we didn’t even have computers yet or DNA or cell phones.🤣🤣🤣 thank you for the trip down memory lane or at least the shock value of where these kids are now😏❤️

[@Jessicodd]

Mentioning the scissors with metal handles brought me back. They never cut through the paper lol it would kind of sandwich between the blades and drove me insane 😭 I’m assuming they needed to be sharpened but who would think to sharpen scissors for elementary kids

FAQs

[@mattimac77]

What makes the scissor blade safe..?

[@faked_my_death]

The tip is blunted instead of sharp. Which basically means the blade isn't pointy. It's safer for the child using them to not accidentally cut themselves but you could technically still stab somebody with them. Just have to push harder and use more force.

[@OriginalAcefanatic]

You are not the only one to put glue on your hand a peel it off. 😅

Love that you are donating this stuff for the local school, I hope many more get inspired to do so. ❤
