Carry your book bag safely and extended it's life by following these guidelines:
Several occupational, chiropractic and orthopedic organizations recommend limiting book bag weight to 15 percent of a child's weight as listed:
Weight(lbs)/ Maximum Backpack Weight(lbs) 60/9, 75/11, 100/15, 125/18, 150/22.
No one should carry more than 25 pounds!
For proper use of book bags:
- Wear both straps. Use of one strap causes one side of the body to bear the weight of the book bag.
- Put on and take off book bags carefully. Keep from twisting your body.
- Wear the book bag evenly in the middle of the back.
- Lighten the load. Carry only items that are required for the day. Place the heaviest items in the pack closest to the back.
