S3 E6| 🍎 Back to School: Then vs. Now — School Days Through the Decades

There’s just something about back-to-school season—the smell of freshly sharpened pencils, a brand-new box of crayons, picking out the perfect first-day outfit, and wondering if your best friend will be in your class.

This week on The Cozy Hollow, we’re heading back to school and taking a nostalgic trip through the decades! 🎒📚

From metal lunchboxes and mimeograph worksheets of the ’70s to Trapper Keepers and Care Bears in the ’80s, Lisa Frank and gel pens in the ’90s, and Chromebooks, Stanley cups, and Google Classroom today, we’re looking at how the back-to-school experience has changed—and the things that somehow still feel exactly the same.

We’re talking school supply shopping, first-day jitters, childhood fashion, packed lunches, technology, pop culture, and some of our own favorite school memories along the way.

Whether your school days included a metal lunchbox, a Trapper Keeper, a Lisa Frank folder, or a Chromebook, come get cozy with us for a little trip back to the classroom. 🍎✏️

We want to hear from you: What decade did you go to school, and what was the one back-to-school item you absolutely HAD to have?
