A vest will come in handy on warm days when it’s hot in class in a cardigan. An elegant blouse will be indispensable for the holidays, you can wear it on September 1st.
If your school requires a uniform, I do not recommend buying a lot of dresses, unnecessary sweaters. They may not be useful to you. But I advise you not to save on tights and hair bands. Tights should be beautiful, with patterns and patterns.

For a boy, you can buy a ready-made suit and combine trousers with other things. Or choose a jacket and trousers separately, according to your taste. I recommend taking a cardigan, you can take it off and put it on at any time, unlike a pullover. It is better to take the trousers a little longer, tuck them yourself or in a professional studio.
- Shoes with a flat sole or with a small heel 3-5 cm;
- Sneakers;
- Indoor shoes.
- Shoes;

- Moccasins (sneakers).
Shoes for a child should be comfortable first of all, and then beautiful. Shoes can be taken on a floor size, or even a size larger. Put on your socks and your shoes will almost fit.
Replacement shoes will also be required if school regulations require it. For girls, you can buy light ballet flats or shoes, preferably with a leather insole. Or buy sneakers or moccasins that can be combined with both a tracksuit and a uniform. In this case, there will be no need to buy two pairs of replacement shoes, sports and casual. The child will walk on the street in sneakers, and at school - in the replacement shoes he needs.
The backpack for a first grader should be small and not exceed 10% of his own weight. The bottom of the backpack should be rubberized so that it can be easily wiped clean. It is advisable to choose a lightweight orthopedic backpack. The backpack needs to be tried on before buying. Is your child comfortable? Does the backpack hang below the waist? Are there any reflective elements on it?
