Make this school year the best one yet with Google Offers

The school year’s just `round corner, and that means one thing: you’ve got an A+ excuse to put your shopping hat on. From pre-kindergartener to PhD, Google Offers has swag for every type of student.

Parents of K-8 kiddos, make your little one feel special with a personalized lunch box—then stock it up with earth-friendly, reusable sandwich bags. Jumpstart her love of science by surprising her with a subscription to the Magic Schoolbus Science Club, or pique her imagination with a glossy, art and poetry-filled Cricket or FamilyFun Magazine. You can even help your child hone his long division skills with an online math prep course—but save plenty of time for your tot to color outside the lines with a crafty Doodle Roll art kit.

Hitting campus for the first time? Get ready for dorm life with some upcoming Google Offers (starting 8/15), including school essentials, like funky Mimoco flash drives or a self-filtering Hydros water bottle. Go ahead, wow your professors with your speed-reading and language skills (check out offers from Iris Reading and Livemocha)—just don’t neglect your wardrobe. Online boutique Betabrand specializes in wearable whimsy, with hoodies, dresses, reversible smoking jackets, and even disco pants, as well as back to school-worthy backpacks.

Recent college grads, gear up for your first “grown-up” job by taking your spreadsheet skills to the next level with an online course from Udemy. It’s also time to start saving, so plan for your (financial) future with LearnVest’s online academy.

Back to school supplies have come a long way from pencils and 3-ring binders—and let’s face it: they’re a whole lot more fun to drop in your virtual shopping cart. So get moving. Shopping is now in session.
