About this kit

Back to school is a shopping season and a family milestone at the same time. Stationers, bookshops and clothing stores post supply lists and offers, parents' pages share first-day photos and lunchbox ideas, and local businesses adjust their hours to the school run. This kit is for those posts; a school, college or course provider writing about its own classes will find a better fit in the education kit. The supplies set covers pens, rulers and bags for a list or an offer, the first-day set suits a photo or a welcome, the lunchbox set covers food ideas, and the learning set adds letters, numbers and a little science. Put the item names and prices in words, since a row of pencils cannot say which one is on offer.

Using these emoji well

  • This kit is for shops and parents; a school, college or course provider writing about its own teaching will find a closer fit in the education kit.
  • Screen readers speak each emoji by name, such as "backpack" or "pencil", so keep item names and prices in words.
  • When sharing first-day photos, ask before posting other children, and leave out school names or uniforms that identify a child's location.
