Raphaël the preschool bag

Choosing the first school bag is an important step before starting nursery school. From the youngest class onwards, a school bag must be light, easy to open, comfortable and large enough to hold the comfort toy, snack, communication notebook and a change of clothes. Our nursery school satchel has been designed for children aged 3 to 6: lightweight, easy to handle thanks to its magnetic closures and perfectly suited to little hands.

From nursery school (around 2.5 / 3 years old), a nursery school bag is often required by schools. It is used to carry:

- a small notebook or communication diary

- the beloved comfort toy

- the snack

- a change of clothes or spare outfit

A suitable school bag from this age encourages independence, the pride of "doing things like the big kids" and above all good organisation for the first steps at school.

A preschool school bag needs to be compact enough to stay comfortable while offering enough room for everyday essentials. With dimensions of 26 × 33 × 9 cm, a capacity of 8 liters and a featherlight weight of 350 g, our school bag easily fits a notebook, a stuffed animal, a water bottle, a snack box, a change of clothes and all the little treasures of the day.

Our school bag is designed to hold everything your child needs at school: a notebook or a communication diary, a comforter, a water bottle, a snack box, a change of clothes, their drawings… and sometimes even a few treasures picked up in the playground! Its large main compartment makes it easy to find everything.

As always at Petit Picotin, the nursery school bag is made in Portugal, at our trusted partner factory. Personalization is then carried out in our Nantes workshop, with all the care we love to put into every order.

The first day of school is a moment full of emotions, for children and parents alike. Personalized with a first name, a nickname, or a sweet little message, the school bag becomes a reassuring companion that the child recognizes immediately. A useful gift for the first day of school… and a lovely keepsake to treasure when the time comes to start Year 1.

For a perfectly coordinated back-to-school look, pair your school bag with a water bottle, a snack box, a pencil case, a smock, or a sports bag from Petit Picotin. All are available in the same colors and can be personalized to create a harmonious set that will accompany your child throughout their preschool years.

Absolutely! A personalized school bag is a gift that is both practical for back to school, symbolic of a big milestone, and filled with love thanks to the personalization. And when the time comes for first grade, it can even be kept as a lovely keepsake from those first school years.
