So Tay starts kindergarten next week. Obviously THE backpack is a big topic of discussion for her. She says "Mom. I want a black backpack, or a dark dark dark dark dark blue one. I don't want a dumb BABY backpack. No way do I want a Cinderella or Ariel one. Those are for babies."
Awesome. Whatever.
So I took her today for the big choosing day. She looks at tons of options with little interest. A lot of cool black ones. When suddenly I hear a screeching 5-year-old voice yell "STOOOOOP!"
Oh wow. She somehow found the shiniest, girliest, fluffiest, ugliest backpack along the 80 foot wall. . .and it was love.
So here's to bad design and one very happy, unknowingly-girly kindergartener.
By the way, that is the actual backpack, in all of its luminescent glory.

my mabel also starts kindergarten next week. she picked a sparkly pink tinkerbell backpack, too. i guess the people who make backpacks know what 5 year old girls like.
Tinkerbell is SO much cooler than ariel or cinderella... They're so last season.
Tea must be watching the style channel again.
bad design...word! i hate the disney corporation and all the money they suck out of us parents. i'm soooo glad my kids have sorta grown out of it. though i'm not sure which is worse...disney crap for little kids or big kids. we hear waaay too much hillary duff around here now...
Briar, it looks a lot like the backpack you showed up with at Ricks... I don't know what the problem is.
