Nothing takes a beating over the course of a school year quite like a backpack, so it's a good idea to start with a quality choice that stands up to some wear and tear. Look for strong seams and sturdy zippers. If your student will be transporting technology, like a tablet or laptop, be sure there's adequate padding to protect the device. Also pay attention to pockets and built-in organization so your student can keep supplies tidy during transport to and from school.
Healthy Snacking Made Simple
