Bag for the theme park for DD 13

[AngieWin]

We leave in 8 days, and dd gets home from vacation with her bio-mom in 7 days, leaving us no time to find a bag together. I am looking for a small bag for her to take in the theme park and my preferences are

- something that a 13 year old would carry (kinda cool)
- big enough for cell phone and small camera, and spending $
- can be carried on most rides
- cheap!

I would love to find something at a thrift store (she would love that idea) but I have no idea of what kind of bag to look for. Any ideas?

A messenger type bag would work well. Baggallini makes some, but they are bigger than what you've described.

If you have any Five Below stores near you, they always have a great selection of bags that teens would love!

the drawstring backpacks are perfect. i am 21 and i love carrying them around because you can fit a lot in them, but they are easy to carryand fit anywhere on a ride. i am posting a link for amazon.com that has them but they are sold almost anywhere (this just had the best picture)

in fact, they sell them in disney as well, with tinkerbell, and mickey, etc.

I personally "Sling" it. Target would be a good place to start.

What about a small Vera Bradley backpack or drawstring bag? That's what all the girls around here carry.

My DD got a cute Tinkerbell messenger bag at Walmart that she took to Disney.
It fit all the criteria big enough but not big, strap long enough to go over her head diagonally for rides, cute, lightweight, and inexspensive!
so check Walmart-she was 14 and has turned 15 but still carries it.
