Is Your Child's Backpack Too Heavy?

Did you know the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that your child's backpack weigh no more than 10% to 15% of their body weight? Backpacks that are too heavy can cause pain, lead to serious injury, and affect posture. Children can end up with injuries in their joints, back/spine, muscles, neck, and shoulders from excessively heavy backpacks.
