Description

A personalized kindergarten backpack for the kids who fill their days with big feelings, tiny treasures, and one very good pencil case. Handmade in soft corduroy and finished with your child's name in hand-knitted lettering, this childrens personalized backpack is built to be the one they actually want to wear — and the one you'll want to keep long after the school year it started in.

Available in two sizes — Toddler Age (Small) for the daycare and preschool years, and School Age (Large) for kindergarten and beyond — so you can pick the fit that matches your child now. Choose from five colorways (Pink, Blue, Beige, Red, Yellow) and add up to three hand-knitted decorations — think a little knitted flower, heart, or star — for a look that's entirely theirs.

Corduroy is a practical choice for a daily school bag: it's hard-wearing, resists everyday scuffs, and doesn't show wear the way plain canvas or nylon can. Padded, adjustable straps, a zippered front pocket for small essentials, and a foldable, roomy main compartment mean it carries books, a lunchbox, and a favourite soft toy without complaint.

Because every bag is personalized to order with your child's name, no two are quite the same — which is exactly what makes it work as a personalized preschool backpack, a first-day-of-school gift, or a personalized toddler backpack for a new sibling starting daycare.

What ages is this backpack suitable for?

The Toddler Age (Small) size suits daycare and preschool-aged children, while the School Age (Large) size is built for kindergarten through early elementary. Full sizing is listed in the variant options above.

Can I personalize it with my child's name?

Yes — every backpack can be personalized with hand-knitted lettering. Choose No Decorations for a plain colorway, or add up to 3 Decorations for name and initial styling.

What kind of decorations can I add?

Knitted accents like a flower, heart, or star pair nicely with your child's name — pick up to 3 Decorations at checkout to build a fully custom look.

What colors are available?

Pink, Blue, Beige, Red, and Yellow — shown in the product photos in a cosy bedroom scene so you can see how each shade looks in real life, not just on a plain background.

Is this a good gift for a birthday or back-to-school present?

Yes — the combination of personalization, size options, and a durable corduroy build makes it a popular pick as a personalized kindergarten backpack gift, whether for a birthday, a first day of school, or as part of a wider personalized gift for a toddler or young child.

Making & shipping

Nothing is sitting in a warehouse waiting. Your bag is knitted to order, which takes 4 to 5 days to make, then 6 to 10 days to reach you.

We'll email you when it goes into the making queue, and again the day it ships with tracking.

Our quality promise

Every name is knitted by hand. No machines, no iron-on letters, no vinyl that lifts at the corners after a term in a schoolbag. One of our makers forms each letter, which is why no two bags come out quite the same.

Before yours is packed, someone checks it against the design you approved — the spelling, the yarn colour, where every decoration sits. If it isn't right, it doesn't go out.

Our bags are child safety certified and made without toxic chemicals.

Braver With ==Their Name== On It

The first morning is the hard one. New room, new faces, and you at the gate trying very hard to look relaxed about it.

Then they hang up a bag with their own name on it, in a colour they picked themselves and just for a moment they aren't the new one. They're someone who belongs here.

  • Their Name Hand-Knitted

  • Made & Shipped In 5 Days

  • Durably Built For Daily Use

  • Loved By 1000's Of Families

==Home== Goes With Them

You can't be there with them. This can.

You chose the colours together at the kitchen table. They'll find it on the hook at morning tea and again at home time, the one thing in that whole big room that reminds them of home.

    They take these everywhere!!

    These turned up two days before my youngest started kindy and they've worn it around the house all weekend. Watching them trace the letters of their names is worth every cent!

    Nana finally got it right

    I've bought a lot of presents over the years that got played with once. Not this one. She takes it everywhere and tells anyone who'll listen that her nana had it made just for her!

    Better than the photos

    I'll admit I expected the name to be printed on. It's real yarn, knitted onto the bag, and you can feel every stitch with your thumb. The corduroy is lovely and thick too. 10/10 from me!

    No more mix-ups at daycare

    There were four of the same bag on the hooks last term and we came home with the wrong one twice. Hasn't happened once since, and of course she has the coolest bag in school!! haha

    He chose every bit himself

    My daughter sat on my lap and picked the pink, then the little flowers, and watched it all appear on the screen. She was proud of that bag before it had even been made!

    Ordered a second one that night

    Got one for my eldest and my youngest was heartbroken. Sorted before bedtime XD and now they both have their own!

    Danielle T. ~ Texas USA

    This one's a keeper

    I've already told my son I want it back when he grows out of it. It's the sort of thing you put away in a box with the first pair of shoes.

    Helen B. ~ London UK

    Made it in time

    I left it far too late before term started and it still arrived with days to spare. The updates along the way stopped me worrying.

Packed For ==Every Adventure==

Airport queues, long drives, a weekend at Nana's. They pack it themselves now — snacks, a favourite toy, the book they won't sleep without.

Somewhere new every day, and one familiar thing on their back the whole way.

How To Personalize

FAQs

How long will it take to arrive?

Every bag is knitted to order, then posted out. We'll email you while yours is being made and again the day it ships, along with shipping updates along the way. Most orders are made and delivered in 10 days from when the order is placed.

How do I track my order?

Once you're order has shipped we'll send you email updates on it's current status. You can also check the status on our Track Your Order page.

How many letters can I use?

Up to ten, spaces included. Most first names fit comfortably. For the longer ones, a shortened version or the name everyone actually calls them often looks lovelier anyway.

What if I spell it wrong?

The preview shows exactly what we'll knit, so do give it one last read before you order. If something isn't right, you can request a change manually via a form on our contact page.

Which size should I choose?

Small suits toddlers with the backpack measuring about 27cm across, 31cm tall. Large suits school age kids at 33cm across and 41cm tall. Both have room for a lunchbox, a drink bottle, toys and a change of clothes.

Will the name come off?

No. The yarn is stitched onto the corduroy by hand, not glued or printed, so it won't peel, crack or lift at the corners the way iron-on names do.

How do I clean it?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then let it air dry. Please keep it out of the machine, the knitted name is what makes it special, and a hot wash isn't kind to it.

Is it safe for little ones?

Yes. Our bags are child safety certified and made without toxic chemicals, and every one is checked by hand before it's packed.
