20 Health Tips for Your Kids [Expert Advice]

School bags shouldn’t be heavy

School bags are the most important part of a school kid’s life. While buying a school bag, parents should pick a wide bag with cushion shoulder straps and cushioned back.

The bag should not be too heavy as this will strain your child’s back. While packing the bag, keep heavier items in the centre and the weight of the bag should not be more than 10-15 percent of your child’s body weight. And ensure that your kids carry the bag on both the shoulders to avoid muscle strain.
