Remember that song from Doordarshan - School chale hum, school chale hum. Kids are so excited to go back to school after such long boring holidays. Kids whose Mom's are homemakers have to stay under the diktat of their mom for the entire vacation period all day long. Do this, do that and don't do that. Even the kids whose Mom go to work have to remain confined with care takers in the day care facilities. They also go more disciplined and less social life.
When it gets nearer to the end of the vacation the children start thinking of the fun time they will again have with their school mates, teachers after a long time. They are also very excited about the new items they have bought and would use in the new class - new pencil box, tiffin, bag, books, water bottles and so on. Every kid likes new things and also likes some time away from the nagging of their Mother and the tight environment kept in the day care. This is also the time when smart business houses catering to kids needs market new products with lucrative deals as back to school deals. Parents also fall into the marketing trap and try to get the snazziest latest things for their school going kids blowing away lot of money in the bargain.
There is one more thing that should be part of the back-to-school events and that is the immunization shots. It should be mandatory for the schools to check the immunization record of the kids in the initial days of school opening. This should also be the top most priority item for the parents.
