Now that schools are beginning to open, please make a note that the backpack 's weight should be 15% of child's weight. 

 For a 48-pound child, 15% is 7 lbs., 59-pound child, 15% is 9 lbs., and for a 76-pound child, 15% is 11 lbs. The child should wear both straps, the backpack should be lightweight, padded back, wide, padded shoulder straps.
