Ideally, a stationery set includes all of the writing essentials. So, a set of pens, pencils, sharpeners or erasers, for example. Sometimes a stationery set will consist of a notebook and a matching pencil case or a matching pen. At times, these sets may also include added extras such as rulers, scissors, staplers, calculators, sticky notes and more. In the best-case scenario, the best kids stationery sets will encompass all of the above.
When it comes to shopping for the best kids stationery sets, there are a few retailers that we love. KIDLY, Papier and Papersmiths are among some of our favourites. Honourable mentions include the ever-faithful John Lewis and Selfridges. High street stores WHSmith and Argos also stock affordable children's stationery to browse.
Alongside the brands mentioned in our round-up above, Etsy have kids stationery sets, with many of them including an option for personalisation. Waterstones and Marks & Spencer are also brands to look at when shopping for the best stationery. Who knows - you might even be able to get a school lunch bag while you're at it.
