Q: Do the flowers on the outside come off?

submitted by Sammi - 2 months ago
  • A: The flowers are sewn on. My daughter has the leopard bag with lunchbox last year. One of the bows fell off sometime during the year. I recommend reinforcing with a few stitches. :)

    submitted byMila - 1 month ago
  • A: No it doesn’t but it’s super soft and fun

    submitted byKayyyy - 2 months ago

    Cute Strawberry Backpack

    This is a very cute backpack, that you can buy all matching accessories for. My daughter loved that Cat & Jack had the matching lunch box, bento box, and Owala to go with it. Target even carries matching strawberry ice packs to go inside. The backpack itself is very roomy. It has a slip pocket inside and two extra zipper pockets on the front to help with organization. As a bonus, you get a convenient little pouch that hangs in the front that my kiddo has placed her chapstick, lotion and hand sanitizer in to grab quickly after recess. This back pack is big enough to carry anything your elementary aged child would need!

    So cute and spacious!

    So cute for my Pre-K daughter. Has tons of space and like that the water bottle pockets on the sides don’t have as much mesh as previous designs as it did not hold up through the school year.

    Sent a returned backpack with a name written in it.

    It's hard to write a review for this backpack because the issue isn't that it's not a nice backpack. The problem is I ordered it online and was sent a backpack with a child's name already written in it. I guess it was a return that wasn't wasn't properly checked before allowing the return. The backpack didn't look used but did have another child's name in it. My granddaughter had to go ahead and use it because school started the next morning, she does like the backpack, but was disappointed that someone's name was in it.
