Monday Merch Meeting: School Backpacks, Loungefly, Disney Parts Collection & More

Welcome back to your Monday Merch Meeting where we catch up on the week’s worth of merchandise released from Disney. The last 7 days have been largely dominated by new gear for the kids. After all, nothing says Summer Vacation quite like Back-to-School shopping in the first two weeks. Right? I can feel all of your children’s eye-rolling from here.

Fair enough, kids, fair enough. Let’s get started anyway, shall we?

Back-to-School Backpacks & Lunch Totes

As much as I would prefer to leave school shopping for closer to the actual return to school, I’ve learned the hard way that if you don’t grab some of these designs while you can, they sell out and don’t come back. Have a look through these new backpacks and lunch totes that are sure to have your kids excited about the new school year when the time comes.

Note: Some of these backpacks are included in a current sale from Disney, valid June 13, 2020 (12:00 am PT) through June 16, 2020 (11:59 pm PT), I will include the details below for you all as well:
