        Son used his school bag from P1-2, at P3 changed to bigger one as he has more books...should still be using it until he goes sec school...I hope.
        There are many brands of ergonomic bags now...can explore a little. A school bag shouldn't be too padded or it will be heavy even b4 putting books in.

        Popular has a 'back to school' fair going on.

            My son's first school bag was a trolley...it didn't last.
            Then got a Lego SPI for him...lasted for 2 years. When he moved up to P3, that bag was too small. His present SPI active is still in good shape.
            Traded in his old Lego bag for another SPI active for daughter who's going to P1 next yr. Got a good deal from trade in.

              Where do you guys buy labels?? Do you get the label machine or just write name on paper and then use scotch tape to paste on the stationery/bag? :?

                I printed out DS1's name and then used scotchtape to paste over.

                Just wondering, colour pencils got to label? I'm a bit worried such stuff go missing but think it's a bit overkill leh.

                    I got the Brother label maker...very easy to use, and uses 4 AA batteries.

                      For pencils/ colour pencils... I get those small 'soft' stars stickers from bookshops and use them as labels..
                      The Chinese word cards got to write chinese name... :faint:...

                        I'm first timer. Do you mean chinese word cards got to label piece by piece? :shock: I only stamp one label on the box leh.

                        Anyway, for pencils and small items, I printed out using excel in font 6/7 - english and chinese names all in (becos it's sap school mah).

                        I piak bigger labels (font 12 - with name in English/chinese and class) on the textbooks. workbooks and exercise books I think better to handwrite.
