Skip Hop Toddler Backpack, Zoo Preschool, Bee

I am a full grown adult, but gosh darn it I love bees. The first time I saw this bag's happy little smile my heart just sang. It took me two years to gather the courage to just get the bag. "What if people judge me?" "Will it be big enough for my daily things?" "I wear a backpack every day to work, will this lil guy be able to hold up?"Here's the results:-This little backpack brings smiles to everyone I pass. I have gotten so many compliments on it and by gum, it makes me happy to see it every day.-I've been able to cram a winter sweater AND a 24oz hydroflask in there. With room to spare.-It's waterproof. I've been caught in several torrential downpours already and all of my work papers were perfectly dry.-a month in and it still looks brand new, every seam is good and no straining-so easy to clean! It'll stay a sunny yellow for years to come.My only complaint is that I had to add some length to the straps, but that's expected because it's designed for toddlers. At any rate it was a 50 cent and hour long fix. Not a big deal.I honestly could only be happier if there were more than 4 pockets.I love this backpack with all my heart, it brightens my day.

we LOVE the skip hop zoo pack!! my son got it from us for his 2nd birthday. he absolutely LOVES carrying it around, putting things in to it, taking things out of it, and playing with it when he's not wearing it.it's the perfect size for munchkins; has enough space for travel wipes, a few diapers, and a couple toys. not too big, so it's easier to make sure that the load is appropriate for what your child can handle to carry.straps have plenty of "growing room" in them, so i expect i'll get a good few years out of it.there is a place inside to write your child's name, and it's decent sized (his name has 12 letters in it, i was able to write it with a standard sharpie).the zippers have larger sized pulls on them, which makes it easy for tiny hands to open and close the pockets.there is a special place for a sippy cup, however, we've noticed that putting a cup there throws our guy a little off-balance. i'm not sure that there is a way to fix that (aside from putting a sippy cup on the other side too) so, since i have no solution, i did not take any marks off. i'm sure that as he gets bigger, we will be able to use this.we get A LOT of compliments on it, as well!! this company DEFINITELY had toddlers in mind!

My daughter (3yrs) picked the bee for herself. She was over the moon with excitement when it arrived and enjoys showing her frineds at daycare her "sweet little bee" each day.I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and durability of this product. I have been able to machine wash it after some extra diry days, and it has so far come through each wash unphased.There are two main pockets for storage, which makes it easy for my daughter to keep up with her things. The front pocket also has a mesh pocket inside for extra organization. My daughter has deemed this to be her "snack spot"It is the perfect size for a preschooler. Not quite tall enough to hold a binder or serious school supplies, but a good starter pack for preschoolers to get used to carrying their own goods, it also doubles as a type of diaper bag when needed and she likes being in charge of all our things.I will recommend this to anyone.

Adorable and well made! We upgraded from the Skip Hop small backpack/harness to this one when our daughter turned 3 and became less of a runner and needed something slightly larger to carry her things. Unlike other children backpacks the material is strong and durable, leading me to believe we will get a lot of use out of it. The design is adorable. There is plenty of space inside for a change of clothes, snacks and some basic toys. We have also used it for preschool and haven't had an issue with the size. Most of her art projects fit inside fine or the teacher just gently folds in half. She doesn't have a folder but the bag would probably be slightly too small if she needed one.

I love this backpack. I could not find the Bee in my usual store, so I was happy to find it on Amazon. And the price was equivalent or even less then I would have paid in the store. My daughter's nickname is Be so I had to get this for her! It is one of the toddler sized backpacks. Size wise it works well for my 3 year old. Seem to resist dirt. Not too dirty yet :-). We have not tested it in day to day going to preschool yet! But so far staying in my car for extra clothes and to go to activities it works well.

This backpack works great for preschool. It is too small for standard folders and papers but can hold extra clothes, shoes and crib sized sheets and blankets. Not too big for 2-4 year old to carry around with them. Very durable.

We've had this backpack for 5 years and it is still in excellent shape! Very durable, no problem with zippers. It's too small for a school backpack (even preschool) but is great for play dates, day trips for car rides, etc. We took it on a vacation a few years ago as my daughter's carry-on with notebooks, markers, pencils, books, stuffed animal, small blanket, headphones, water bottle, and snacks with no problem.

I just bought the small Bee backpack and my 18 month old son loves it!! I'm sick of carrying around a diaper bag, so I bought this as an alternative to carry with us when we head out. He loves to put it on his back and act like a big shot :) It is the perfect size for diapers, wipes, snacks, an extra change of clothes, a few small toys, etc. The front pocket has a mesh pocket in it as well, so I keep hand sanitizer, nail clippers, and chapstick in there and spoons on the outside. It seems very well made and durable. Plus, it's just so darn cute!! Good luck deciding on which one to get!
