Default What is a scribbler, etc???

Hi

Our children start school tomorrow but we are confused as to what some of the items they need actually are - what is a scribbler and what are duotangs?

Any help would be good as our 11year old daughter is having a right panic about this!

Taa daaaaaa!!!!

Duotang

I would also assume a scribbler could be a notebook of some sort?

As above ... I guess a scribbler is what we used to call a jotter?

If you take the list to a Staples store, and ask for assistance, I'm sure somebody will help you collate it all!

I remember asking our new next door neighbors kids those very same questions when we first got a school supply list.

We had the same problem with Duotang, had to ask a random woman in Wallmart what they were!!!
