As usual, children need only the best, and also stylish and fashionable. In the modern world, school is no exception.

Therefore, parents of future first-graders try their best, choosing only the best for their children, often forgetting what a first-grader’s school bag should be like.

In such cases, experts advise thinking about the child's health first. Here are the parameters that future schoolchildren's fathers and mothers need to consider.

First, the size of the portfolio

First graders carry mostly pens and pencils to school, as well as snack containers, so bulky bags and backpacks can be left for older children.

You need to choose a briefcase or backpack that is no wider than the student’s back and no longer than the waist.

Secondly, the form

It should be a sturdy backpack or briefcase that will hold its shape.

It is important to have a rigid back with special cushions so as not to put pressure on the back and not spoil your posture.

Of course, the straps should be adjustable in length, and they should not be narrower than 4-5 cm.

The best material is considered to be polyester - the most wear-resistant. It is desirable that the backpack be waterproof.

Weight

Please note that an empty first-grader’s backpack should not weigh more than 1 kilogram.

Only after this can you choose the design, color and other nice details.
