What type of backpack are you buying for the fall?
Rolling, or off the shoulder?
My son is going into Kindergarten and I'm not sure which to order.
Oh, and where are you getting them?
Thanks.

I would go with shoulder...he probably on't have that many books and the rolling one can be a nuisance, in fact some schools do not allow it.

Half way through kindergarten last year my son was begging for a rolling back pack, so I bought him one for this coming year in first grade. He loves scooby doo and I bought it from amazon

Shoulder. We did rolling for kindergarten & were asked after that to do shoulder only.
As for where to get them - Lands End in the Sears store. They are guaranteed for life. If they don't hold up, you can return them ANYTIME.

Rolling is not allowed in our current school district. So I'll be getting her an over the shoulder.

My son has the Land's End Junior and I am very happy with it. It fits all his books and notebooks and yet it's not too big and comfortable to carry.

You can't go wrong w/ Lands End & I'd definitely see if the rolling is allowed in your child's school as they are not allowed in many schools due to safety reasons.

Most schools don't allow rolling backpacks. Check with yours before buying!

We got them character ones they wanted. They lasted the whole year and now they will want something different come fall. I think I might have gottne them at Kohls but have bought their preschool ones at Target I believe.
