Bought 2, one for each kiddo - fits 5 and 8 year old well. They are not too big or too small. Fits water bottle, sweatshirt, ipad and few toys. Lots of pockets. We use these for plane trips, car trips, hiking - anywhere you want a practical bag that fits what they need but not something so huge bag they are going to complain about carrying. Not a good school bag as you could fit lunch/ books/ etc, but perfect everywhere else bag.See full review
