perfect for my pre-schoolers and into elementary s
PostedDecember 18, 2014
My little one got this backpack as a 3 yr old and it has performed beautifully for 5 years! Looks practically brand new! She's put alot of miles on the backpack...a trip to Europe, the preschool days, elementary school, many pretend camping trips in the backyard, etc. Her younger brother has recently taken a liking to it as well. I would highly recommend!
I needed to find a backpack for my pre-schooler that would accommodate a folder and his sneakers during winter months but not be too bulky or heavy. The Junior is the perfect size! He is now in kindergarten and it's still holding up like brand new. He can fit his folder, large lunch pail, sneakers, and art smock in the large compartment with extra room for smaller items in the front pockets. The quality is nothing less than what I've come to expect from Beans. I suspect my son will outgrow it long before anything compromises the integrity of the pack. My old one finally started wearing through the bottom after about 10 years of use.
Very cute and durable but beware when it gets wet the color bleeds. I bought the pink and the first day of school it rained and my daughter had huge pink spots all over her white sweater. At first I was very upset but they did wash out but still the color should not run!! Make it water resistant please!!!!
