Wildkin Butterfly Sidekick Backpack

We bought this for our daughter when she went to kindergarten. It survived the school year with plenty of abuse and still looks almost like new. The construction was sturdy for our purpose, which admittedly did not involve a lot of heavy textbooks. It seems like it might be a bit small for an older student who would be carrying more, but for younger students it works great. The butterfly design is also pretty, and refreshingly different from the ubiquitous Barbie, Princess, Dora stuff that we found everywhere else.

This is a great backpack. It's not as big as a standard pack, but big enough to hold a folder and various papers. It doesn't swallow my 5year old! Most standard packs were just too big! This one is just right.

this is my daughter's 2nd wildkin backpack. the first one was the yellow with horses design that lasted all through kindergarten. this one was the first grade backpack and it just barely made it thru the school year. it's very sturdy, a little smaller than a normal backpack (but hey it's the first first grade). only in the last month of the school year, did the bottom start getting a couple holes (probably more to my daughter dragging it on the ground). she loves the designs so we're planning on getting our third webkin backpack for the 2nd grade.

...Bought this one for our preschooler because it was pretty--the top strap ripped by the 8th day of preschool! Seriously, our preschooler took it to school with normal use on the bus (snackbag, drink, shoes, and jacket). The strap is now totally ripped off. We bought a lunchbag to match because it was so pretty, and haven't taken it out of the bag yet as the backpack was so poorly made (why do we need a match to a backpack that didn't last?). Seriously, shouldn't it have lasted longer? I only regret that we didn't just buy a backpack at Target or Walmart. My 4th grader had tons of books and Target one lasted 2 years (still okay but showing wear). I wanted something pretty for our daughter in preschool. Too bad, made the wrong choice on buying THIS one. :(

Want Wildkin Butterfly Sidekick Backpack Discount?

My daughter wanted a purple backpack with butterflys looked in google and wildkin came up. They have TONS of patterns look on their webpage wildkin.com.

Very durable plastic coated fabric, sturdy zippers & best of all a black canvas bottom. We know how nasty the bottom of backpacks can get! Would definitley reccomend for K & 1st grade. Too small for older grades.
