Let it be said that I do not get paid by any of these companies (say for Amazon), altho I should. I do have my Amazon Affiliate links for those items found there, and you can read more about that disclaimer at the bottom of the blog.
Nature Study Tote Box Supply List:
You can put whatever supplies you'd like in your tote-
this is just what we use the most.
The price has gone up a bit since I bought these
but they are worth the money-very sturdy!
And you can always re-purpose them later.
Otherwise, look for totes that have
a secure top/lid and are not flimsy.
USE your discount coupon!
