Trendy Bags and Backpacks for Kids from Oompa.com

Who doesn't know the amazing e-commmerce site Oompa Toys? If you haven't been to this online store yet, you don't know what you're missing.

Oompa Toys is well-known for its wide selection of high quality, well-designed toys. I love shopping at this store to find unique toys and other items for my little boys that I couldn't find in other leading toy stores.

Recently, Oompa Toys added a selection of trendy kids' bags, lunchboxes, and backpacks to their store. Combining function and fashion in kids' bags has never been so stylish! Your kids will be so grateful you found them one!

Here are my top three picks:


*Little Kid Backpack: Monkey from Dante Beatrix ($35.99)

Very charming Little Kid Backpack that's perfect for carrying around crayons, favorite toys, snacks and more. It’s also a perfect bag for trips to the park or to grandma's house. Choose from 8 new styles designed by artist Dante Pauwels in New York City: Penguin, Bee, Bunny, Shark, Pig, Lion, Dino, Monkey and Polar Bear. These bags are made of lightweight nylon material- easy on your kids' little shoulders. To care, spot clean with a damp cloth. Features include padded back and adjustable straps, zip closure.

My three year old Gabriel loves to tote along his new Monkey backpack whenever we go to the park or when we go on our little road trips. :D
