Back to School Gift Guide
For the teachers, coaches, and sitters who get your kids through the year — and for the household starting the routine over. One Shop Downtown!, 6 local businesses to choose from. Delivered by email.
There are two lists this time of year — the crew who gets your kids through the year, and the household gearing up for a new one. A Shop Downtown! covers both.
Teachers, coaches, tutors, bus drivers, sitters, daycare staff — a local card they can spend on themselves.
6 local businesses — coffee, lunch, books, supplies, a treat. Their pick, not your guess.
Delivered by email. Dollars go straight to local Fairfield businesses.
These Fairfield businesses accept the Shop Downtown! Card — whether you're thanking a teacher or restocking your own school year.
A movie, a show, a night that isn’t about permission slips — Fairfield after the bell rings.
For the week nobody has the energy to cook, and for the coach who stayed late. Fairfield’s kitchens, their pick.
Notebooks, a new reading list, shoes that fit this year — from local Fairfield shops instead of a big-box aisle.
The first week of school books itself solid. Schedule delivery for the date and time you want — the morning of day one, the end of orientation week, or the Friday the new routine finally sticks.
