Backpacks for children

A good backpack is an essential item when you are heading out with your child. Whether it is a trip to the beach, filled with towels, swimming goggles and beach toys, or a car journey with snacks and toys, you will find the right size and design for your needs at House of Kids. We have a wide selection of lovely models from brands such as Sticky Lemon, MOLO and Grech & Co. This means you can easily find a stylish design for boys and girls, younger children and teenagers alike.

When choosing a backpack for your child, it is important to select the right size. Your child may be carrying it on their back for a long time or filling it with heavy school books, so choose a bag that fits comfortably and does not pull, pinch or cause discomfort. We have a wide selection of beautiful models that can hold teddy bears, comforters, bedtime stories and anything else your child may need for a sleepover at their grandparents’ house. You will also find larger models that can be used as school bags. If your child will be walking a long way with the backpack or carrying lots of heavy items, choose a design with adjustable shoulder straps so you can make sure it fits perfectly on their back. Padded shoulder straps can also help prevent sore shoulders when your child is carrying heavier things. A chest strap can be useful too, as it helps keep the backpack in place while distributing the weight more evenly, so your child does not have to carry the entire load on their shoulders.

For little ones and older children

For younger children, we warmly recommend one of the adorable models from Liewood. These charming designs have room for a small lunch box, a favourite teddy bear and a few drawing supplies. Avoid choosing one of the very large models for a young child if they are going to carry it themselves. It is incredibly sweet to see little Silje walking out of her room, having packed all her favourite things and being ready for an adventure. The backpack is packed to the brim, and she may even be in danger of toppling backwards. A smaller backpack also naturally limits how much younger children can bring along, as they often want to take their entire room with them even though they rarely use everything. For an older child, you might want to look at a brand such as Sticky Lemon, which offers lovely models in beautiful colour combinations. For teenagers, you will find stylish bags from Mads Nørgaard.
