Summer is winding down as preparations for the new school year are beginning. We have a million and one things to get done, but there's still plenty of time to whip up some pocket dragons to send with kids for their first week back into the fray.


Let's look at the best pocket dragons for the back-to-school season!

The Littlest Pocket Dragon

This dragon is the smallest Pocket Dragon available and therefore the easiest to tag along through a school day. Not only can it be a bag charm, as shown above, but it can also be used as:

  • A book mark to save the page in a new library book

  • A fidget toy with beads to calm the mind

  • A keychain to guard over keys or the classroom hall pass

  • A learning game for colors or counting

  • And more!

Beaded Pocket Dragons

Any beaded pocket dragon is a wonderful tool for calming a mind. The different textures and movement of the beads can help kids self-regulate or concentrate. Send one with your child to add to the classroom's or counselor's fidget toy basket to help others in need as well. Make them in school colors for extra fun! There are many options in the beaded pocket dragon family! Choose from:

  • The Small Beaded Pocket Dragon

  • The Large Beaded Pocket Dragon

  • The Skeleton Modification (use with the Large Beaded Pocket Dragon)

  • The Small Gingerbread Pocket Dragon

  • The Large Gingerbread Pocket Dragon

  • The Littlest Pocket Dragon

As a child, starting a baby sitting, daycare, or preschool journey for the first time is exciting but it can also a little scary. Send* a dragon guardian to protect and comfort your little one through nap time! This buttery smooth fleece blanket fits inside the Fireball Bag alongside the coordinating Snuggle Dragon. When they are removed, the Fireball Bag can be rolled into a pillow for nap time. *Please consult your childcare provider regarding nap time etiquette before sending this set. Many places have specific items children can use for nap.

The beginning of the school year is a big transition, even for the youngest in the family. Make an adorable Starburst Dragon Pacifier Pal to keep their pacifier close for comfort in the busy mornings or long pick up line. This dragon can also be made without the pacifier and clip to use as a regular gliding pocket dragon. The texture of the starburst stitching is a wonderful fidget as well.




Final Thoughts

From the smallest dragon to the snuggliest dragon, Pocket Dragons are a fun element to add to the new school year. They can help keep track of pages in a new book, keys, or hall passes but also bring comfort to those struggling with concentration or transitions. I look forward to seeing how everyone is welcoming Pocket Dragons into their school year!
