Anyone have any backpack suggestions? I'm looking to buy a light , very colorful backpack. I can't seem to find a good one in a very bright color. I think the bright color helps the kids keep an eye on you!!
I did find my britta water bottles at WalMart thanks to the DIS!!
L.L. Bean has some nice backpacks. The Original Student Bookpack ($24) and the junior version ($19) come in lime green, appropriately enough for these boards. I'm sure you could get a backpack for less at the discount department stores, but the Bean versions are very sturdy and come with a lifetime guarantee. You can check them out on their website (llbean.com).
I have a great fanny pack, that my DH will carry. That will have the park passes, money, etc... The backpack will hold water bottles, snacks, rain ponchos, camera!
