So this holiday travel season, I hope your kids can push their own (cute!) suitcases.

Crossing the river, through the woods, we (hopefully) go to the houses of all our relatives! With the good news about vaccines, many people hope to travel more freely with their families this holiday season. With Thanksgiving approaching, it's time to start thinking about where to go and what to pack. But first, check your travel gear: Does your backpack tear at the seams? Is your suitcase too small to pack all your children's clothes with your own clothes? Do you hope that if they have something they really like, they will actually carry their own items with them? It's time for the kids to have their own gear and buy the smartest, lightest, and most talented (and, well, the cutest) children's backpacks and suitcases.

When looking for backpacks and suitcases suitable for children, there are some characteristics you need to keep in mind. The weight of carry-on luggage is important (if it is heavy when empty, your child will not want to drag it around when it is full), and the height between the wheels and handles of the luggage is also the key to your child's comfort. Here, you will find a soft-strap backpack with strategic pockets and compartments, and an easy-to-slide wheeled suitcase that can accommodate a variety of clothing changes. There are even special shoulder straps, suitable for important supper and other things they decide to pack themselves. So, everyone, it's time to shop.
