My daughter will start preschool in the fall and already LOVES the idea of carrying around a little backpack. Â She fills them up with all of her special things and pretends to go to “school”. Â However, I’ve been disappointed in the few we’ve had so far. Â They were flimsy, the straps were silly for one reason or another, and the zippers……too hard to work with. Â Ultimately, she would just get frustrated with them. Â I mean, how hard can it be to make a sturdy, functional, and cute backpack for this age group (2-5)?! Â Well my search is over! Â I just scored this set from MYHABIT for CHEAP and we couldn’t be happier! Â It’s an adorable and recently discontinued pattern called Svenja Girl Robot.
In fact, I’m so afraid they’ll discontinue the matching Alexander Robot pattern, that I just got these to set aside for my little guy who’s only 5 months old!

*Here’s what’s so awesome about the backpack:
It’s the perfect size and the zippers work great!  The straps are padded, adjustable, and rigid enough to hold their shape which makes it super easy for my daughter to put on and take off by herself.  It’s made from a durable nylon and easy-to-clean laminated canvas.
*Here’s what’s so terrific about the lunch box:
It’s insulated, has a zippered pocket, name tag, and is dishwasher safe!
**Oh, and they are PVC free, lead free, & phthalate free. Â Yippee!**
