Lightening the Risk of Backpack Injury

Before you buy that trendy new bag your child has been begging you for, here are a few things to consider:
  • A lightweight pack won't add a lot of weight to your child's load.
  • Two wide, padded shoulder straps won’t dig into your child’s shoulders.
  • A padded back provides increased comfort and protects your child from sharp objects inside the pack.
  • A waist belt and multiple compartments can help distribute the weight in the pack.
