Back to School: Must-Have Essentials for Every Student's School Life

Back to School: Must-Have Essentials for Every Student's School Life

As the new school year begins, students of all ages prepare for the upcoming routines of classes, homework, and extracurricular activities. Yet, beyond the academic grind lies another exciting aspect of school life: camping trips and outdoor adventures. Whether organized by the school or planned with friends, these outings provide a much-needed break from daily pressures, offering students the chance to relax, build independence, and develop a sense of adventure.

Camping is more than just a fun escape—it’s an opportunity for students to unwind, connect with nature, and develop essential life skills. These experiences nurture independence, courage, and a spirit of exploration—qualities as valuable as academic achievements. To fully enjoy these adventures, having the right gear is crucial, and that’s where a quality air mattress becomes indispensable.

Elementary School: Grades 1–5

For younger students, camping trips and overnight activities often mark their first taste of independence and adventure. Whether it’s a weekend at a local campsite or a cozy night under the stars in the backyard, these early experiences can be both thrilling and a little nervous.
  • Family Camping Night: Some families create camping experiences at home or in the backyard, complete with tents and air beds. A CHERIMOR Twin or Full air mattress adds to the authenticity of the adventure, making it a fun and comforting experience for kids. Get away from electronic screens for a short time and create great camping memories with your family.
  • School Sleepovers: Schools occasionally organize overnight events or pajama parties where students bring their own sleeping gear. An inflatable mattress is a convenient choice, easy to carry and set up, ensuring a good night’s sleep after the excitement.
Providing a familiar, cozy place to sleep, the CHERIMOR air bed helps ease any nervousness, ensuring your child rests comfortably after a day of fun and exploration.

Middle School: Ready for Adventure

As students transition into middle school, their sense of independence grows, and so do the challenges of their camping adventures. Middle schoolers are more likely to participate in overnight school trips on their own or join outdoor clubs that require longer, more demanding excursions.

  • School or Church Camping Trips: Middle school students often take part in camping trips organized by schools or church groups on their own. Parents can ensure their comfort by providing them with reliable inflatable bed like the CHERIMOR Full or Queen size, offering the perfect blend of comfort and durability for outdoor use.
  • Friendship Gatherings: Sleepovers and pajama parties become more common during these years. A sturdy air bed can provide a comfortable spot for friends to crash, making it a must-have for any middle schooler's home.

Whether for a school-organized camping trip or a sleepover with friends, the CHERIMOR air mattress ensures that your child is well-rested and ready to take on new challenges.

High School: Balancing Academics and Fun

High school life is a whirlwind of academic responsibilities, social events, and extracurricular activities. Students often find themselves on overnight trips, ranging from advanced outdoor activities to spontaneous camping adventures with friends.

  • Fall Camping Trips: As part of school clubs or extracurricular activities, high school students may participate in fall camping trips. A comfortable blow up mattress like the CHERIMOR Wireless Built-in Pump Series provides a much-needed rest after a day of hiking and exploring, ensuring students wake up refreshed and ready for more.
  • Sports Competitions and Band Trips: During away games or band performances, students may need to sleep in gymnasiums or other temporary venues. An King air bed offers a practical solution for a comfortable night’s sleep, making it an ideal companion for such events.


With the academic pressures that high school brings, students need effective ways to unwind and recharge. A comfortable air mattress ensures they get the quality sleep needed to make these experiences enjoyable and rejuvenating.

College and University: On the Move

College and university life is marked by constant change—new dorms, new apartments, and, often, frequent moves. In this phase, a portable, easy-to-inflate air bed becomes more than just a luxury; it’s a necessity.

  • Orientation Week: During Orientation Week, college freshmen might invite family or friends to stay over. A queen inflatable mattress provides a convenient temporary bed in the dorm, making it easier to accommodate guests.
  • Dorm Room Parties: College students often host dorm room parties or movie nights. A twin air mattress can serve as extra seating or a comfortable place for friends to rest, making it a versatile addition to any dorm room.
  • Frequent Moves: With the ever-changing nature of college life, students often find themselves moving between dorms, apartments, or houses. A CHERIMOR Mattress Topper Series air mattress is perfect for these transitions, offering a comfortable, easily portable bed that can be set up anywhere.


Additionally, college students often participate in outdoor clubs or spontaneous weekend getaways. A versatile air bed ensures that no matter where they end up, they have a comfortable place to sleep.



No matter what stage of school your child is in, camping and outdoor adventures are invaluable parts of their growth and development. By equipping them with a high-quality air mattress, you're not just ensuring their comfort; you're also giving them the tools to fully embrace these experiences, develop independence, and create lifelong memories.
