What's actually in the guide

Skim by category. Each pick has a one-line "why it matters" and a verified link.

01 · The Bag Bags that survive a year Brixley, Portland Leather, North Face — vetted for actual session use, not aesthetics.
02 · Hydration Water bottles that survive parking lot drops Stanley pink, Contigo, Owala — the ones that don't crack at month two.
03 · Audio Headphones that block one noise, not the other Bose, Sony — block the parking lot, not the parent's question.
04 · Calming Calming tools your RBTs will actually use Pre-vetted fidgets, calming strips, sensory items — the ones that work, not the ones that look good in photos.
05 · Apparel Clothes for the squat-down/run-after-them reality Half-zips, Bombas-dupes, bodysuits — the gear that survives the work, not just the photo shoot.
06 · Organization Pouches, labels, the wet-wipe case that doesn't leak Small stuff that quietly saves your week. Pouch-pencil-case-tier upgrades.
