There was one item loyal to accompany children while going to school, tutoring, sports and other activities. Everywhere it was stuck in his back. Too many items to carry, it looked bloated. His backpack. It was not only favored boys, but also women. Trendy and practical model can contain many items. That is the reason why children liked school backpacks.Unfortunately, according to some studies, a backpack that is regarded as causing pain disorders. Both backs, hips, and neck. The selection of backpacks that are also potentially cause tingling. Based on research conducted in the country, Uncle Sam, many students aged 9 years and over who should be tortured with back pain caused by his school backpack. These problems can occur because of errors in the selection or improper use of these backpacks.
So, choose a bag to the child not as simple as mistaken. His election must be careful and pay attention to various aspects, comfort, strength, security, and equally important, health.
1. FIND THE RIGHT SIZE
Match your bag to be purchased with the child's body posture. Not too big or small. Sizes are too large will create oversize bags, so if too small to make the discomfort and reduce the appearance. To be accurate, let the children try their own backpacks to be bought. Do not because the home-style, back muscles become its victims.
2. IMPORTANCE bearings
Expenses are a lot of weight on the backpack and potentially causing aches and pains. The existence of bearings will reduce the volume of bags press caused excessive. That's why looking bag with shoulder strap, waist strap, also equipped with rear padded cushion. Ache and pain will be inevitable.
3. ROOM AND MANY pockets
Bags had been due to accommodate lots of stuff. That is why, choose a bag that has many pockets, pouches or parts that can be used to store various items. There are pockets to store pens, cell phone, stationery, school lunch box, and others. In addition to making goods distribution more evenly in the bag, the bag also allows many children in search of objects saved.
Make sure children know the function of each bag. Therefore, the bag is made by looking at many aspects, including security and practicality. For example, pockets for water bottles made with the outside, to avoid damage to other goods when the bottle has leaked or spilled. Mobile phone pouch shoulder strap to be placed on practicality, although this facility is also present in the bag for security.
4. ROPE Not Just an Accessory
Avoid choosing a bag with a rope. If things take a little child might not be a problem, but what if the child should bring a lot of books, we can be sure the bag will load relies on just one part of the shoulder. At first the child may not feel anything, but after a long time the child will feel the pain and stiffness in the shoulder section. Choose a bag with two ropes. Not only that. Select is also a bag with waist strap. The existence of this string is important because it can distribute load throughout the body bag. That is why, to use all existing strap on your bag, shoulder strap is also the second best belt. If this is ignored, it is not possible the child will experience a tingling or pain and soreness. When used, make sure the proper rope tension setting, not too tight but not too loose.
5. POSITIONS EXIST IN THE WAIST BAG
Bag size should be no wider than the shoulders. Also cultivated the bottom of the bag right at the waist, so that children can be pressed with fitted waist strap. Bags are also ideally attached to the back and waist. Avoid wearing oversized bags to make excess weight back.
6. MATERIAL STRENGTH
Look for bags of strong material and stitching. Thus, these bags are strong enough to bring a lot of goods. As an option, it is worth choosing waterproof bag. However, despite already waterproof bag material, but water can still enter through the sidelines of the stitching on the bag. Therefore, it would be better if the bag has a cover of a parachute, so when it rains because the bag will be protected and packed securely cover such waterproof.
7. HAVE Wheels
Often you see the backpack with wheels facility. This facility is actually very good to use in certain places, like the school yard because it has a flat and smooth floor surface. It's just a backpack like this model is usually quite heavy.
8. CONTENTS necessary
Indeed, the backpack can contain many items. However, that does not mean your child can fill his bag to the brim. Take the necessary learning equipment only. Take advantage of the school owned lockers. Children can place any weight on the lockers.
Association of American pediatricians recommend, that burden can be brought children to the backpack should not exceed 10-20% weight. If the child's weight only 25 kg, so that could be brought only 2.5 to 5 kilos only. Even better, if the load is limited to 10% only. To measure parents can take advantage of the scales. If the excess and used for a prolonged period, other than cause health risk, this bag is risky cause chronic back disorder and related disorders of the spine.
Well hopefully, with these criteria can parents help children choose healthy bag.
