Go Back to School with Bixbee Backpacks and Save 20%!

I bet most of you have sent your kiddos back to school in recent days, or you’ll be doing that very soon.  There’s something so fun and exciting about the start of a new school year.  All my life, I’ve found the beginning of the school year to be exciting, in large part due to the fun of buying new school supplies and gear.  If I’m being honest, that kind of thing still thrills me even though my school days are long gone, mere hazy memories. Taking my kids to the back-to-school sales really is my idea of a good time.

Now bear with me while I get a little silly. When I was little, there was a hierarchy when it came to school supplies. There were the basics, like pencils, pencil cases, rulers, new crayons, etc. Those things were great, but they were bottom tier. Above those came…the beloved Trapper Keeper. Do you remember the joy of that new Trapper Keeper smell?  Oh, precious memories.  And finally… the crème de la crème… a new backpack. The backpack: the fashion statement, the tool that held all our other valuable school supplies, the lifeline itself.  In other words, my favorite thing.

It’s probably no surprise that my love of backpacks has rubbed off on my kids, so we are always excited when it’s time to pick out a new one for the year. They want style, they need function, and I demand a good backpack that won’t fall apart and also won’t hurt or injure their little backs while they lug around all those books and supplies.

With all that in mind, can I just say thanks goodness for Bixbee?  Bixbee backpacks are the most adorable things I’ve seen, and my kids and I are a little obsessed with them.

Bixbee bags are specially designed for children’s measurements, and they’re tailor-made in three different sizes. They feature a patented horizontal design, which means all the weight will be carried above waist level and the back and shoulders are protected from too much strain.  The shape isn’t just better for them; it’s also more functional, as it provides easier access to their supplies, and even features laptop/tablet protection in the medium and large sizes.

More Bixbee features:

• Ergonomic, comfortable design
• Lightweight (only 1.3 pounds)
• Contoured air-mesh adjustable shoulder straps with sliding sternum strap
• Generously padded breathable mesh back panel to alleviate pressure points
• Made with rugged 600-denier polyester, which means they’re durable and water-resistant
• Adjustable mesh side pocket for water bottles of any size
• ID card holder under the main flap
• Reflective accents for low light safety and visibility
• Last but not least: certified PVC, BPA, Phthalate, and lead-free

As for the designs, I can’t get over how cute they are! My kids’ faces lit up like it was Christmas morning when we opened the box, and my daughter actually squealed with delight.  We received the Sparkalicious Glitter Backpack in Pink for my girl, and the Zombie Camo Backpack in Grey for my boy. They really, really love these bags. Not only do they like the styles, they even recognize and appreciate how comfortable they are. As for me, I love the styles, too, but I’m also very happy with all the storage space and compartments, plus the design that will protect them from the back problems I encountered from ill-fitting and poorly-worn backpacks over the years.

One more thing to point out:  Bixbee takes part in an initiative called “One Here, One There.” Through this program, with every Bixbee bag purchased, a school bag filled with supplies will be donated to a child in need. That’s really the icing on an already-delicious cake.
