School supply lists for children, regardless the age, has expanded from the basics of pencils and paper to much more. When money is tight at home, it can be frustrating to figure how to obtain all of the required supplies, especially when a family is on a very tight budget.

This can become a fun activity for the family and everyone can participate. Make sure everyone who is helping with the treasure hunt is given a list with two to five items as well as the quantity needed for each.
