Whether it’s their very first day of school or just a new grade, going back to school is always a big moment. As parents, we feel it too - the excitement, the nerves, the last-minute prep, the hope that everything will go smoothly.
At Joeydolls, we believe that every child should step into school feeling proud of who they are. That’s why we created a collection of back to school supplies that celebrate culture and uplift children through joyful, purposeful designs.
Let’s get into what makes this collection so special!

Our backpacks, pencil cases and totes aren’t just cute (though they definitely are). They’re thoughtfully designed to reflect joyful, culturally inspired prints - so kids can walk into class feeling like their heritage is celebrated.

Why Representation in School Supplies Matters
When kids see themselves in the dolls they play with, the books they read, and the accessories they carry, it shapes how they see their worth in the world. Joeydolls exists to ensure that every child feels that sense of belonging.
That’s why we pair every cultural product we create with thoughtful tools like our Back to School Checklist for Kids - to help ease transitions with joy, pride, and representation.
Whether you’re shopping for your little one, gifting a teacher, or preparing for preschool drop-off, we hope our collection helps make that first step into school just a little more magical.
Make School More Than Just Academic
Back to school doesn’t have to be stressful - it can be a chance to spark cultural curiosity, start meaningful conversations, and build a foundation of pride that lasts all year long.
Here’s how our items support this:
