5 Tips for Choosing the Right School Bag for Your Child

Choosing the ideal schoolbag for your child is not always easy: you have to please your dear offspring, meet the requirements of schools and protect the growing backs of our little blond heads.

Fortunately, at Caramel & Cie, we know our stuff and we're the kind of people who like to share Good tips !

1. Resistant

These schoolbags are going to have some adventures! Our little angels are going to give them a real run for their money, and that's exactly what we wish for them.

The seams must be strong, the outer bottom reinforced, and the materials durable. A little tip: if it stands up on its own, that's a good start.

2. Light

Don't be fooled: a sturdy schoolbag can also be lightweight! Empty, it shouldn't weigh more than 1.2 kg, because you'll be filling it up. Always be careful not to overload your children. A little tip: when full, it shouldn't exceed 10% of your child's weight. If it's heavier, help them!

3. Comfortable

A well-made schoolbag should support your child's back and shoulders. Choose a schoolbag with padded, breathable shoulder straps. For primary school, it's preferable for this padding to extend to the back as well, since the load will be heavier.

Good support (wide, adjustable and padded straps) helps to cushion the impact of the schoolbag on the back and preserves the good posture of our children, who are growing rapidly.

4. Practice

We like that there are several pockets to keep your belongings organized and, at the same time, your mind.

Choose a schoolbag that is waterproof inside and out: it will stay pretty longer and you won't have to worry about spills of applesauce!

5. Character!

Let your child express their personality and individuality with a schoolbag featuring an original design. It's so much easier to find their belongings when they don't look like everyone else's, and your child is one of a kind, isn't he?
