Looking at kids' school supplies means that I am:

• A). I am out of touch.
• B). It is very obvious that I don't have children.
• C). All of the above.

My answer is definitely C.

Betty and Shirley said Pee-Chee Folders Too

I remember the calendar inside and drawing all over it. Many people on Facebook were saying that Pee-Chee's have been discontinued. I found some that you can buy.

I call the 64-pack of Crayolas with the sharpener the big daddy of them all.

KIDS MIGHT ASK - WHO IS LISA FRANK?

These folders might have been the first school supply to go viral. There totally would have been a Lisa Frank TikTok dance.
