Children's Backpacks

Backpacks and Rucksacks for kids

A backpack is a versatile piece of luggage and suitable for all types of use, including longer trips and holidays. After all, sometimes a suitcase or trolley case might be a bit too much for a little one's simple needs. There's no point them dragging a trolley case across the airport if all they need can fit snugly into a little backpack. A kid's rucksack is usually quite small and can quickly be slung over the shoulder, or carried properly with both straps holding the bag close the to back. Plus when they are no longer in use, a backpack can easily be made flat and tucked away in a drawer. We have picked out some of the best in children's rucksacks below, from some of the best UK luggage retailers. Plus our price checker is constantly updated, so you can be sure to find the right prices and deals for the great little kids' bags.

Our Best Buys for Kids' Backpacks

About Our Kids' Backpacks Choice

A backpack or rucksack is a simple yet versatile piece of luggage, and perfect for a little boy or girl to pack away a few of their belongings ready for a trip away somewhere, or perhaps just a day out, or even a day at school. Although a backpack isn't usually as roomy as say, a Trunki suitcase, it can be just a useful, and indeed, you may find yourself buying a matching suitcase and backpack set, such as the Trunki ride-on suitcases and the GoVinci Travel Packs.

GoVinci Travel Backpacks from Trunki

Another great idea from Trunki: a backpack that doubles as a little drawing table - entertainment and luggage in one! Plus, once the artwork is complete, it can be displayed in a frame on the backpack for the whole world to see! Now that's a great way to customise your luggage. The GoVinci bags aren't huge, but offer enough space for essentials, plus any bigger and they would be too heavy for the little ones to carry, but goes perfectly with the amazing Trunki ride on suitcases here.

Sammies Backpacks for Kids

Sammies backpacks are part of the wider Sammies range of luggage which includes trolley cases and different size backpacks, all made by Samsonite. The designs really appeal to kids since they are all based on animals including a crocodile, ladybird, bee and a panda.

Cuties Kids' Backpacks

Other great backpacks for kids include the wonderful Cuties range, which come in both soft and hard-sided versions for kids. The hard sided backpack means the kids can even carry fragile items in their bags without the worry things will get damaged. Rather like the Sammies range, the Cuties backpacks have an animal theme and designs include a penguin, monkey and pig.

Kids' Character Backpacks

There are also plenty of kids' character backpacks available, such as Peppa Pig, Hannah Montana, Thomas the Tank Engine and Hello Kitty. See above for all our top choice of kids' backpacks.
