Shopping Tips

What should you consider when buying school backpacks? From daycare to grad school, backpacks are school staples. Students don't have enough hands to tote all of the books and supplies to and from school and between classes. Kid's school backpacks are a status symbol. Carrying the latest backpack is a must with most students.

However, according to the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), physicians see thousands of students each year for back pain caused by carrying bookbags that are too heavy. In one study with American students, six out of 10 students (ages nine to 20) reported chronic back pain related to heavy bookbags. In another study conducted after backpack education, eight of 10 middle-school students who packed their school backpacks and carried them correctly reported less pain and strain in their backs, necks and shoulders. Some manufacturers like Ivar have designed backpacks from the ground up that are intended to distribute weight more evenly across the back of the user, making even heavy loads carry more safely.

It is recommended that loaded school backpacks weigh no more than 10 percent to 15 percent of a student's body weight. For example, a child weighing 60 lbs. should not carry a backpack exceeding 9 lbs. An older student weighing 100 lbs. can safely carry a backpack weighing up to 15 lbs. It is important to choose the best backpack, pack it smart and wear the school backpack correctly.
