HELP! Which bag suits my child?

Caroline Vanleke

The transition from kindergarten to primary school calls for a fitting school bag. But which bag should you buy for your child? And what exactly are the differences between the current Jeune Premier models?

 

Before we go into further specifications, we'd like to share the 1 golden rule with you:

 

"Always buy a school bag that will fit your child now, not one that will fit them later when they've grown."

 

To avoid back pain and to guarantee maximum comfort, the school bag must fit your child's back perfectly. A backpack only fits well when the back panel sits tightly against your back.

 

To check if the bag fits, have your child stand up straight and grab the adjustment straps at armpit level. Tighten both shoulder straps, just until the back panel of the backpack is snug against your son's or daughter's back.

 

"There's a bag for every age and an age for every bag."

 

The first important question when searching for the perfect bag is: "How old is your child?"

 

For a child, a school bag is the most important utensil! A friend, a fellow traveler who accompanies them to and from school every day. As such, it is very important that this bag reflects the personality of its owner. And we won't even mention the importance of the design… Let's start at the beginning! Before we choose the color and print, we must first determine which school backpack suits your little one best.

 

At Jeune Premier, we work with 3 age categories. Within each age category, we have developed various styles that match together in size and volume, but differ in use and looks to meet the needs of the user and/or their environment.
