Stephen Joseph Backpacks

Does anyone have a picture of their child wearing this? I'm wondering what the size is?

And quality?

Hee hee, I asked Maya to post some IRL pics of them in the pictures forum. I am thinking the lady bug one would be adorable for my niece for her second birthday.

oh cool, i will go "second" your suggestion

OK - that is big. I will try another a different way. I have not used the pic software on here before. Sorry!

I am trying to add one more and it is being sassy.

Got it! That is Cal with it at 4.5 years. He is smaller framed - only weighed 33 pounds at that point.

Thanks for the pics Amy! 33 pounds?? How tiny and cute!! He's just a huggable little fellow!

LOL! Yep! Went in for his 5 year today and he finally broke 35!

Oh those are pretty large! That is a good thing I Think!

What is the material like?

I don't know what they are made of, but it is a grippier material that holds up well to in and out of cubbies, thrown on floor, etc. Ours has been through a year of use and has not a mark on it. It holds papers from school without being folded. That is about the size of it.

Nice pics! I'm loving the ME Beset!

Thank you Amy!

Does it have any pockets at all or just one open space?

It has one small slip pocket. Not really good for much except holding a small toy. IMO - these are great for the early years. They would not work for when they start Kg.

Thank you Amy! I wish it had a cup holder. I would love for him to be able to carry his straw cup.

Yes, that would be a nice addition. The flip side is he could carry a Thermos cup inside with no leaking.

Is the SJ a lot lighter than the Mini? I saw that the Mini is smaller in size, but I'm guessing it weighs a bit more??

Yeah I guess that is a good idea about the Thermos cup. I just returned ours because in 2 uses my daughter managed to break hers and get her finger pinched in it!

Teri Rae - Did you see my PR post about the other backpack I found? I'm thinking of ordering that one... it's not from LD&D though.

Hey ladies - Cal just got his new Kg backpack today so if anyone is interested in his Stephen Joseph, let me know. It is the shark one and has some dried glue spots inside, but other than that, looks great.
