Young preschooler loves it. They are an average sized 3.5 yo - it fits well now and will be fine for the next few years. Holds just enough without being too large/heavy they can’t carry. Nice quality, zippers glide well, reinforced seams, rain cover. Haven’t started using it every day, just 2-3x weekly, but it’s been great so far.

I purchased this bag two months ago for my toddler who started attending nursery school three days a week. The print is absolutely adorable and he loves it. I appreciate that the straps are very adjustable and it is a great size with the right amount of pockets. I can't comment on how waterproof it is as it has not been outside in the rain. Unfortunately, it's starting to fray already with very little use so I doubt it will hold up well.

This backpack is perfect for little ones! It’s bigger than the option we had for my 6 year old when she went to pre school but not so big that it takes up half her body. It fits everything perfectly and my daughter LOVES the front pocket that has many compartments and the rain protector.

The backpack is cute and functional but it has ripped within one month of usage. The water bottle holder ripped and we don’t even use it for holding anything.

It was a struggle to find a backpack that was both roomy and would fit his tiny stature. This was PERFECT! There are lots of usable pockets and even a rain cover. I especially appreciate the easily adjustable straps and the front clip keeps the backpack secure.
