Help make Back to School easier on your child's spine. Important steps for properly fitting a backpack:
1) Your child should wear the backpack on both shoulders
2) The shoulder straps should fit comfortably over and under the arms allowing free movement
3) Fix shoulder straps so the backpack sits at the top of the waist or slightly above it
4) The backpack should not be wider than your child's body
5)The backpack should not exceed 10-15% of your child's weight
