Skip Hop Zoo Little Kid Backpacks

I just recently purchased this adorable backpack for my 23 month old after searching for one for a few weeks. I thought this one was really cute and it had great reviews. My daughter is getting to the age where we don't need to lug around quite so many things for her and I wanted to down-size from her diaper bag. For each one of my kids, at about the age of 2, I have switched from a diaper bag to a small backpack for them. They enjoy being in charge of their own bag and it is one less thing that I have to lug around (unless, of course, they are tired of carrying it). This bag, and all of the Skip Hop Little Kid Backpacks, are the perfect size for a toddler. They are not too big and bulky for them but they still have plenty of room for diapers or pull ups, wipes and a change of clothes (I would consider the weight of all that you pack in the backpack and try to keep it light for the sake of the child's back).

These packs come in several cute designs for boys or girls. I was very close to getting the owl which is adorable too. Another great feature of these bags is that they have an insulated pocket in the front for snacks or other items. The side mesh pocket it big enough for a bottle or sippy cup. They are BPA, Phthalate, and PVC free which is very important to me when choosing products for my children.

When we received this one in the mail, and I showed it to my daughter she was so excited. She actually hugged the thing and then proceeded to wear it around the house the rest of the day. She loves to wear it when we go out. When we get out of the car she always asks for her backpack. Skip Hop makes matching lunch boxes too. They are just as cute and are next on our list.
