Thank you to PetSac for providing us with an adorable backpack pet for the kids, in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions shared are my own.
School is back in full swing and both B and S are gone all day. C has had a fairly smooth transition to being the only home with Mommy and enjoys being the big girl now. While her brother and sister are at school, she likes to pretend she is going to school too. She fills bags and packs pretend lunch and walks around saying "Bye Mom". She was super excited when a package came for her that she could use in her pretend school play.
PetSac is a cool, new company that offers a first of its kind backpack in a plush pet.

I love that these are both a pet and a useful backpack. They are ideal for overnight trips, short travels in the car, sleepovers, or even younger ages of school. We were given the opportunity to choose one pet and backpack design of our choice.

Now the real test begins
C was so excited to get her super soft puppy and snuggle right up to him. She was having a fun time carrying him around and holding him close. She loves pets and stuffed animals so I love that she can use Spike in this manor.
Then I showed her a special secret about Spike. By pulling his tail, a secret compartment opens up to reveal a backpack. We have the Floral pattern, which is bright pink with yellow and light pink flowers.
She worked hard getting the surprise out and then proceeded to shout backpack at me.
Here is cute little Spike all unpacked.
The backpack is full size and has two comfortable straps as well.
I tightened up the straps and TA-DA! She was so pumped to be wearing a real backpack with a doggie on it. It is a tad big on her, but she does not care one bit, she is a big girl. She has wasted no time filling it full of all her stuff, it is very lightweight, so she isn't pulled down when she has her goodies in it. As soon as it is full, then she is quickly emptying it out to carry Spike around. To transform back into a stuffed pet, all you need to do is pack the backpack back inside Spike and zip him up. C is able to do it herself, which is a great fact when you are 2.
Looking like she could just go off to school
Big sister also tried it out. S is 6 and this bag would work for her for an overnight with cousins or a longer car trip, but not sure it would work for school with all her books, folders, and lunch box everyday, but maybe on occasion.
My girls love the PetSac and have not only found a backpack to fill with goodies, they also have a pet to snuggle when the bag is empty. It is durable, easy to use, simple to clean, and adorable. Thumbs up from us!
