Finding that perfect bag for my little ones is hard work, and often I
buy a bag that does not fit them properly or the straps don’t go small enough
so they are left with a bag that is dragging behind them.
So I jumped online to see if there was any stores or brands that could
help me out, and this is where I found Okiedog.
Okiedog’s latest edition to their nappy bag portfolio are children
bags. They cater for ages 2-6 years old and have children’s different
needs in mind. Their design language ranges from cute animal characters
for the very young ones to bold and bright colours for older kids.
Okiedog children bags are designed with love. They
comply with all safety standards, have high quality and are made from very
durable materials. As all our okiedog bags, our children bags are:
PVC
Phthalate
AZO
and BPA-free.
The range that really interested me
was the wildpack range. They are basically bags that look like little
cute animals. There are 6 adorable animals to pick from at the moment, which
include: Panda, Tiger, Elephant, Rabbit, Dog and Dragon. Being animals there is
no real girly ones or ones made pacifically for boys, they are all very much
unisex bags.
You can match your childs backpack, trolley, lunch
bag and suitcase.
Wildpack bags are water resistant, easy to clean
and very light weight. Due to their soft shell and their 3D shape they are
truly a new breed amongst all other animal bags.
The two bags we were
sent were in the dog design and my youngest did not actually know it was a bag
to begin with.

Interior mesh
pocket
This is perfect for my 2 year old, and small enough for her to carry on
her back with all her daily snacks, nappy and face wipes. It fits everything
nicely in the mesh pocket inside so things aren’t left flying around
everywhere! But then on top of the mesh pocket there is enough room to pop a
light jumper. Im not to sure that you could use this as a school bag or
anything like that though as it is quite small and suitable for the younger
aged kids. But it would work for my 5yo kinder bag as she only takes a snack
and jumped to kinder.
As I said above my youngest to begin with did not even know this was a
bag and pretended like it was her puppy, making woof noises while pulling it
along on the ground. But when I actually popped it on her back and showed her
what it actually was, I have to hide the bag when we don’t need it as she just
wont take the thing off her back haha.
Wildpack trolley "Dog"

My eldest daughter often has a sleep over with her grandma and is
forever having to take a huge backpack that just doesn’t fit on her back and I
am left trying to carry her bag in, my handbag and then my youngest daughter in
my other arm. So I needed something she would actually like to take and want to
carry herself. That is where the trolley’s from Okiedog are perfect. The
handles are made for little ones, so they don’t struggle to pull the little
cases along. The shell is also hard, which protects all my daughter’s
belongings inside.
The only thing with these bags is that you will only be able to fit one
set of pj’s in them and a change of clothes. We also JUST crammed my daughters
boots in there, which was great. I have heard a few people say, ‘Aww look how
cute that girls bag is.’ I even had an older lady stop me and ask where I
bought the bag.’ I didn’t actually buy these bags either, I was gifted them
from the amazing people at Okiedog for review purposes. But with saying that
all these words and opinions are my own, and I have not in anyway been paid to
talk up Okiedog.
There are some retailers that sell
these bags, but I would love to see them become more available on the shelves.
But Okiedog also do deliveries Australia wide for a flat $10 shipping.
