Do Backpacks Equal Backaches?

It's that time of year again when families start the back to school shopping. There is always a long list and so many products from which to choose. Besides getting the best price, how can you get the best products? Well, as a rule I always suggest that parents try to purchase the specific item the teacher has recommended. The teacher has had lots of experience with many different types of school supplies and usually knows what works the best and lasts the longest. When it comes to backpacks though,  teachers don't usually give too much feedback. Children can really develop backaches from carrying ill fitting and over stuffed backpacks so here is an article to help you make that all important decision. Happy shopping!
