Lands End Backpacks

Have you ever bought one? How did it hold up? How long did it last? How old are your kids, or the person who used it? I saw in a catalog that they have ones for young kids, all the way up to college. I suppose it is for durability for the big books and all. I was considering buying them for my kids this year, a high schooler and middle schooler, but wanted to know what you thought of them. I did buy Swiss Gear in the past and the last one lasted about 3 years but I liked the different colors and patterns that Lands End offers.

School Shoes for Girl?

My DD is starting Kindergarten & I'm just wondering what type of shoes your girls wear to school? DD has only been in a very casual Pre-K setting, so she could wear flip flops to that, but I know regular school isn't as flexible. Is there something stylish & functional, at the same time, that she can wear? I know some of you will probably say "Twinkle Toes" by Skechers, but, as cute as Twinkle Toes are, I won't be spending my money on them - she got them for Christmas last year & they barely made it through 4 months of very light use...

Lands End Kid Shoes

I've bought my kids lots of shoes from Lands End in the past, but they are usually too big! I just did their size chart on my daughter, and by it, I should buy her a size 12. Her current shoes are 9s! And they aren't too small. I have no clue what size to order. My daughter will be 4 in March, and she is very tall, 90%. Do Land ends shoes run big, little?

Do You Personalize Lunch Boxes, Backpacks, & Water Bottles for School??

So, I've taught elementary, but now I'm sending my oldest to K this year. (exhale) It is a full day, so she will have lunch there. I know I need to label everything, and wonder if I should have her name embroidered on her stuff, and professionally printed on her water bottle. I know that sounds excessive, but I know that sharpie eventually wears off. I work with kids daily and see a TON of things in the lost and found because it was never labeled or it has worn off. So, do I order a backpack with her name embroidered on it? (If so...
