Entering primary school marks a significant step in your little being's life. It's a new adventure, as exciting as it is scary, and it starts with choosing the right schoolbag. But how do you select the ideal luggage for a 6-year-old?

Size and weight of the school bag in CP: what is the right measurement?

Before considering the purchase of a school bag for your 6-year-old schoolboy, you want to have accurate information about the ideal size and weight of the accessory. Well, it all depends on your child's morphology. Indeed, a CP boy measuring 1.20 meters for 22 kilos will have to equip himself with a bag different from that of his classmate of the same age measuring 1.10 meters for 17 kilos.

The rule established by health professionals: the weight of the schoolbag must not exceed 10% of the weight of the student. For this, it is necessary to choose a robust accessory, but light (empty), but especially to take care not to clutter it with unnecessary school supplies on a daily basis.

➡️ Concrete example: your daughter weighs 20 kilos, her school bag should not weigh more than 2 kilos with the school materials inside!

The rule is different if you do The choice of a school bag with wheels. This luggage, equipped with a trolley system including a telescopic handle and two or four wheels, is towed. Thus, its weight is not borne by the students. This bag can therefore afford to be a little heavier: 20% of the child's weight. However, if the latter hangs it most of the time on his shoulders, you will have to make sure to respect the standard of the schoolbag without wheels (10%) in order to avoid possible back problems to your offspring.

Materials and durability: how to ensure a long life for the schoolbag?

The choice of materials is crucial. Do you know what are the best materials for a school bag for a 6-year-old? As you can imagine, you have to look for a balance between lightness and resistance. Materials like polyester or nylon are ideal because they are both strong and lightweight.
