Choosing a school backpack for a girl in grade 3

Today, such school accessories as a backpack are presented in a wide range on the domestic market. Modern children are quite picky in the choice of a backpack, especially girls. After all, for them it is not just a satchel, but a part of their school image.

Choosing a school backpack correctly is quite difficult, especially for a girl. It doesn't matter if she went to school in the 3rd grade, or in the 6th, one thing remains important for her - the external design of the accessory. However, you should understand that you cannot choose it by one appearance.

So which one to choose - a backpack or a satchel? For children of primary school age, it is better to give preference to a knapsack. Since posture is being formed at this age, it is best to choose a school bag with a hard back, in order to avoid the appearance of curvature of the spine. It is the knapsack that has a rigid frame.

Already from 5-6 grades, you can buy ordinary school backpacks. Since the posture at this age has already been formed. After all, the backpack does not have an internal frame and can be easily folded. Therefore, podiatrists recommend it to children of middle and senior school age.
