Just before the first bell of the year rings, come and discover together what you need to pay attention to before buying a school bag for every school level.

Kindergarten

Since kindergarten is children’s first contact with school, the first school bag should prepare them positively!

Find one with their favorite hero that they will love. Prefer a trolley bag with wheels, so they can carry it easily and see it as a game!

Elementary School

In the early grades of elementary school, a trolley bag with wheels is a good choice. As they grow older, you can make the transition to a backpack.

Middle School - High School

As they gradually enter adolescence, heroes are replaced by beautiful, modern designs and brands, and the choice of backpack is now often made by the children themselves. Some classic brands that stand out in school backpacks are: Sprayground, Polo, Eastpak & Vans.

What to look out for when choosing?

1. Weight & Size

Children from the early grades of primary school need to carry many books. For greater comfort, you can either choose a bag with an anatomical back or prefer a bag with wheels! And since bags with wheels are difficult to wash, prefer bags in dark shades, which do not stain as easily.

2. Additional accessories 

Bags with built-in water bottles or other accessories are usually heavier, so choose them only if they are really useful.

3. Snack 

If your child takes a meal to school, buy a special lunch bag to reduce the weight of the main bag. By letting them choose one with their favorite superhero or character, lunchtime will become their favorite time!

To see bags with a specific theme, you can use the filter on the left side of the screen! For example, here you can see Lilo & Stitch. And here, look, Minecraft!

4. Lifespan

The average lifespan of a bag, especially for younger ages, is about 1-2 years.

Choosing the right bag requires some research! However, the most important thing is for children to feel good about the bag they have chosen and to want to have it with them every day!
