Nowadays, it seems
like backpacks weigh only slightly more than a small Volvo. Is your kids’ backpack too heavy?
I recently found the site Backpack Safety and enjoyed some of the tips there myself. To wit:
….
Parents, teachers, school administrators and health care specialists are concerned about the issue of children’s health and safety with their backpacks. Children are hunched forward like peasants as they lug their books to and from school and between classes. Students are carrying 20 to 40 pounds in many cases, so this concern is legitimate. Common sense tells us that a heavy load distributed improperly or unevenly, repeated day after day, is indeed going to cause stress to a growing spinal column. “As the twig is bent, so grows the tree.”
There is a growing awareness of this problem globally as evidenced by media coverage from network television to syndicated newspaper columns such as Dear Abby.

It contains such resources like:
- Pete the Posture Parrot
- BSA Safety Video
- News & Research
- Find Participating Doctors
- Bring BSA to Your School
- Safe Backpack Use
- Doctors Only Section
- Frequently Asked Q’s
Do give it a check. And did you know, there’s even a National Backpack Awareness Day too! I wonder how schools will celebrate that…. 
ThankYouVeryMuch!
