Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is one of the most popular films this summer. Everyone just loves Groot and all the other guardians. This backpack from Disney Store is super fun because it has a fur hood in the top of the backpack. Your child can choose to wear the hood or leave it in the backpack. The Rocket Raccoon Hooded Backpack for kids is available for purchase on Amazon.

WWE Lunchboxes

If your little one is a wrestling fan, they are going to love these WWE lunch boxes featuring some of the most popular wrestlers including John Cena, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and more. WWE offers a variety to choose from, including the double-sided lunch box featuring RAW superstars. My nephew is a huge WWE fan, so he was super excited about heading back to school with his new RAW lunchbox. My youngest who’s still at home took one for all his toys. You can purchase WWE Insulated Lunch Boxes on Amazon.

WWE Backpacks

You’re can’t have a WWE lunch box and not include matching backpacks. WWE sent me two sizes of their backpacks for back to school. They come in a larger size for older kids and a smaller size for younger kids that don’t need a lot of space. Both are very durable and sure to please any wrestling fan. The larger backpack held all my nephew’s school supplies and still had room. The straps were long enough for his height and it distributes the weight evenly. These are a great option. You can purchase WWE Backpacks online on Amazon.

Tinksky Girls Sports Backpack

For older girls in elementary school that want to skip the characters this backpack from Tinksky is perfect for school. It’s large enough to hold all their books and supplies and durable to last the whole year. I love all the pockets included on this backpack because they can store so many things in this one backpack. You can purchase the Tinksky Girls Sports Backpack on Amazon.

Land’s End ClassMate® Small Backpack’s

I love the classic backpacks from Land’s End. They remind me of ones I used when I was a child growing up in Trinidad. The personalization gives it an additional touch that goes a long way, and it helps with making sure you child knows which backpack is theirs. They are strong, durable, and made to last a long time.

I love a good bargain. I noticed this year a few designs with backpacks that also included matching lunchboxes, pencil cases, and a water bottle. We picked up a Paw Patrol design for my six-year-old. These sets are perfect for parents like me who are shopping for multiple kids. The set has several items, so I can save and not have to worry about shopping for those items individually. Anything you don’t need you can hold on to it for the future, or donate to a shelter. You can purchase these sets in stores like Macy’s and J.C. Penny, or online from Amazon or eBay.

You can also find matching accessories like water bottles or containers to finish the set. You can purchase Disney Store lunch boxes online or in stores or at outlet locations.

This Incredible Hulk Backpack is sure to make your little one feel like a superhero. The design is amazing. It looks like they’re carrying the Hulk right on their back. The design of the Hulk is made from a firmer material than the rest of the backpack. It’s easy to clean by wiping off with a wet cloth. It matched up perfectly with our Avengers Lunchbox. It’s larger enough to hold books for kids in fifth grade, and still lightweight enough for younger school kids. There are a few compartments for storing books and other school supplies.
