🎒 Back-to-school reminder: A child’s backpack should weigh no more than about 10% of their body weight. Take a few minutes tonight to clear out unnecessary books, papers, and supplies—and make sure both shoulder straps are being used. If the bag is still too heavy, a rolling backpack or cart may be a better option!
A lighter load can help reduce unnecessary strain on growing backs and shoulders. 📚✏️
