Almost all of us probably still remember our first school bag. Back in the innocent years of our being young our world opened up to education, friends and responsibilities. The first time we started to appreciate the concept of personal things that we own and the key to that way is our school backpacks. In it we could have our own private store of everything that we needed during the day, our lunches, our books, toys and those incredible sets of pens and pencils that people kept giving us on our birthdays.
Depending on your age, the school bag has changed a lot since you were a child. My first school bag was a traditional satchel in brown leather with a single shoulder strap and metal buckles, but today you're more likely to see children going to school with a flash and colorful Dora kids backpack. The traditional technology of yesterday's year has now in lots of cases been replaced with the high-tech technology of computer designed synthetic fibers, ergonomic padded straps and the quick release fasteners. School bags still contains the same stuffs though, more often than not, though you might see a few more mobile phones and mp3 than in my day.
These bags often get changed on a regular basis. Most kids go through a phase of trying to seem older, and try out adult style briefcases, or they get into sports and hobbies and start to use a sports bag for all their sweaty gym gear. Fashion affects children much younger these days and the school bag as a fashion accessory is more and more common. I'm sure we all remember as well the bags adorned with our favorite cartoon characters, all the stickers and patches we used to collect, and the infinite variety of methods of labeling a bag with our names.
When I am buying for my kids school pack I only make sure that I give them the best for them
