August Family Days at Elan

Backpack Checks today at Elan for Family Days!  Is your bag lightweight? 2 wide shoulder straps; with extra straps at waist or chest & are they used? Does it have lots of pockets? Does it weigh less then 10% of your kid's weight?  Is it packed with heavy items closest to back?  Can your child put it on a table or chair and then put the straps on? This avoids lifting and twisting the bag.  A heavy or improperly used back pack can lead to back, neck or shoulder strain. Please talk to us if you have a concern about your child's health-we love to adjust kids and keep them feeling healthy!  Happy Back to School!
