Frog Backpacks
Backpacks are not just for carrying lunches back and forth to school. They are a way for your child to express himself or herself to the world. What better way for a frog loving child to hop back to school than a froggy themed backpack.
Your child's frog backpack can hold all those school supplies that the teacher asks for plus so much more.
Your child's frog backpack can hold a stuffed frog toy, a favorite frog book to read, and a note from you telling how much you love and will miss him until he hops back home.
