The playing cats heritage kids’ backpack is built to last. My five-year-old daughter, who is petite, fits it perfectly. I went through three backpacks in kindergarten because she’d end up dragging them. The others were too big for her & not og great quality. This backpack is the perfect fit and will accommodate all her needs. I love the additional support from the strap in front. She absolutely loves it. I was quick enough to order the matching lunch box & pencil case. But! I did pick up a car bag charm. It’s the perfect accessory.

Why is the inside flap missing?
Extemely disappointed to find out the current kids backpack are missing the inside flap. The 3 previous kids /youth back packs we have gotten over the years have all had this and it is difficult to tell from the pictures and details section for current kids and youth sizes if this is available or not.

This was a gift to
This was a gift to my 4 year old granddaughter so for this reason I’m unable to give a review. When she gives me a response then I’ll be able to respond to your questions.

Thumbs Up from my Toddler
My little one loves the backpack. Especially that it is pink. It is the perfect size for preschool for her lunch and hopefully kindergarten too!

The right size backpack
I just transitioned our son from the diaper bag to his own bag for daycare, and this was the perfect size to fit his change of clothes, bottles and diapers. My only wish is that the backpack had additional compartments on the inside but I’ll just buy other inserts to separate the items I mentioned.
We purchased the shark backpack and our son loves it.

Cute and Good Quality
The quality and size of the Herschel kids backpacks is perfect for my littles. My 1 year old won’t be able to wear it for a bit but she’ll grow into it. Fits my 3 year old well. While I wasn’t immediately in love with the print options I took the chance and am so glad I did. They’re so cute! My three year old decided to pack his own bag for church the very next day after we received them because he was so excited. And as a welcomed surprise part of his backpack glows in the dark. I wanted a backpack that could last through their childhood and thanks to the quality and style these should do just that.
