Back-to-School with Oompa Toys Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed. The winner is comment #38: ktanjatk!

One of the main things that all kids need when going back to school are backpacks and lunchboxes. I don’t know about your kids but mine are very picky about what they sport around campus. They want something fashionable. I want something practical and durable. Well, we found all those qualities in Oopma Toys.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Entrepreneur Milanie Cleere created the Oompa Toys brand as one of the leading online specialty toy retailers. Founded in 2004, Oompa Toys carries a wonderful, ever expanding mix of wooden toys, baby toys, soft dolls, play food, ball tracks, play mats and other beautiful, high quality wooden toys. They take pride in offering fair and competitive prices and strive for 100% customer satisfaction.

MY REVIEW

We received the Skip Hop Zoo Pack Toddler Backpack in the Mouse design to review. OMG! If this isn’t the cutest backpack ever! Baby Bug insisted on using it right away and we always get comments from other parents when we’re out asking where they can get one.

I love the high quality of this backpack and the fact that it’s not too big for Baby Bug to carry around. Not only is this backpack perfect for school but she can also use it for overnight clothes when staying at Grandma’s house or just anytime she leaves the house. Baby Bug puts her lovey, small toys, and books in it. It even has a mesh side pocket to put her sippy cup in. My favorite detail is the little cheese that hangs from the zipper. It’s such a cute touch and really adds to the overall look.

So if you’re looking for the perfect toddler backpack for back-to-school, outings, stay-overs, or traveling check out Oompa Toys and their extensive line of gear. You’ll find something for every child in your family!
