Kid-Approved Backpacks That Are Cool For School

I don’t know about you, but when I was a kid, pre-teen and high-schooler, I cared an awful lot about my backpack. I wanted something fashionable and unique! Something that reflected my personal style at the time, while also being practical. Backpacks have seriously come a long way and now there are hundreds of choices, if not thousands. While searching for two new school bags for my children I came across tons of cool ones that I knew my kiddos would approve of. In fact, I asked them if they did! These backpacks get two thumbs up for going back-to-school feeling confident and comfortable.

Ultimately, my daughter’s choice the Unicorn from the Skip Hop Zoo series available at indigo.ca and my son’s pick (in the photo below) is a classic navy bag from ME to WE available at shop.metowe.com (if you’re local, there is a pop up shop at CF Rideau Centre in Ottawa). They are both pleased as punch with their new school bags, which makes me very happy! 

I hope you find some back-to-school inspiration from my roundup. You can even show it to your kiddos, they might just find “the one” for this school year.

Happy BTS shopping!
