Backpack Safety Tips for a Healthy School Year! Whether your kiddo is starting preschool or heading off to college, Dr. Gates would like you to keep these tips in mind:
✅ Choose the right size: The backpack should fit your child’s back properly — not too big or too small.
✅ Look for comfort: Pick one with wide, padded, adjustable shoulder straps and a padded back for extra support.
✅ Use it correctly: Remind your child to always wear both shoulder straps and keep the weight to no more than 10% of their body weight.
