Does your LO have more than one of the PBK backpacks?

If so, which ones, and what do you use them for? (and side question, if you were buying more, would they all be the same pattern? Different? Coordinating?)

I admit that I have a random obsession with them, but I keep finding them super cheap and they are cute. lol  DD has a rolling duffle and the preschool size one (both are monogrammed), and the matching lunch bag.

She uses the preschool size one for overnights since she doesn't need a backpack for preschool. It's small though and can only really fit 1 night's worth of clothing and toiletries in it.  No additional shoes or larger things.

Anyway, i'm considering getting the next size up (small) for weekend trips (and possibly have her also use it for kindergarten).

We got the preschool one for use at preschool- he needed one to carry a change of clothes and his lunch. It was, as you know, way, way too small. Wish I had read the reviews. I had it monogrammed so couldn't return it. Now we use it to carry his portable TV/DVD player and it actually works perfectly for that. We got the size up (small) for every day preschool. It's a good size- pretty big on him (he's almost 4) and I hope it'll last until kindy. Plenty of room for everything. We have the matching square lunchbox and it'll fit inside with a change of clothes.

DS only has one. If it was up to me. He'd get a new one every month. LOL. But he has a regular side backpack (cars). They only need it when they send home paper or projects.

Glad to hear I am not the only one with a PBK backpack obsession

We have 2 pre-school sized ones which work for some super small day trips and my son carries one to school with a cup, undies, and a pack of wipes in it.  He also has the small sized one which is too big for him to carry everyday for school but its GREAT for an overnight trip to grandma's house.  I like that there are little pockets on the side because I can put his toothbrush and medicine in it.  Plenty of space for clothes, sound machine, shoes, etc.

We have 2:  the roller bag for airport and like travel and a large for school.  Both monogrammed both the same print.  Oh and the lunch bag (matches also)

We have one. Size small. Plus a matching lunchbag because I couldn't resist and it was on clearance. We use that mostly for trips to the zoo and such, since she doesn't have to bring a snack for preschool.

DD1 uses the backpack for preschool, and I think it'll last us at least until kindy or longer. Depending on whether or not I can hold off buying another one! Every time they come out with new patterns, I have to remind myself that the one she has is going to last years.

Each of our girls have one, in different patterns. We use them frequently for appts. DD1 gets to pack hers with books, toys, crayons, things to take care of her baby... before we go. DD2s has gone back and forth between being used for g-tube supplies and being her "communication" bag.

... Maybe I should get a third so we don't have this problem?!

P.S. I skipped out on the monograms. When I did the preview it seemed like some of them weren't going to show up very well and DD1 can definitely pick hers out (from her sister's) based on the fabric.
