My Bag by Kushies

Do you let your child pack his bag for an overnight stay only to find later that he forgot to pack an essential item or when you open his bag you find clean clothes squished in next to dirty shoes?

My Bag from Kushies is not just a bag – but a great teaching tool! Yes, that’s right, this bag can be used to help teach your child about organization and responsibility! The name “My Bag” already gives your child a sense of responsibility for this bag, and all of the unique features will allow your child to be organized while taking care of his belongings.

My Bag from Kushies

My Bag is a great daycare or overnight bag. The My Bag duffel bag comes with 5 tote bags for: clean clothes, dirty clothes, soiled clothes (comes with a laundry bag insert for inside this tote), shoes, and one tote for the soft pillow and blanket that is included with bag. Each tote is labeled with a phrase and picture (for younger children) so your child will know what item goes where. Involve your child in the packing process – place him “in charge” of filling one or all of the totes. He’ll feel good about helping out, and knowing that everything has a place will help him to be responsible for his belongings while away from home.

The duffel bag also has 2 side zipped-pockets and one side has a mesh pocket as well – for “stuff”.

That’s not all – this bag even comes with 2 insulated boxes. One reads “ouch” and is for medicine or first aid supplies, and the other “yum” box is for food.

Children love being responsible for something, and this bag gives them the opportunity to take care of their packing supplies. If you want to help pack, just have your child place clothing on top of the bags and then do a final inspection.

My Bag is available in pink or blue.
