:D Now that is a great idea! It not only lets parents know right off if kids are taking inappropriate things to school, but the teachers can see if they’re taking their homework home with them. ;)

Hmmm. Backpack of the future? Definitely nice from an adult’s point of view!

I really like the look of these newer bookbags, and I think that a lot of city schools are now requiring them. It’s important to get the right brand, though, because cheap ones have plastic that rips easy.

I’m glad these weren’t required when I was in school. Everyone would have been able to see how messy I was!

Clever. Reminisce of when clear plastic umbrellas were first marketed.

Interesting idea. Would help to be able to find where something had been packed, especially items on the bottom.

Oh, my daughter had one of these, and it lasted THREE years! Best backpack we ever had, and I haven’t been able to find another. Glad you posted this!
