I recently had the opportunity to attend a Land End back to school event.  During the event I learned about how makes there products safe and of high quality for our children. One area of focus was the Lands End Back Pack,  they offer several different types depending on the age and weight of books kids carry.  Lands end also test the backpack so they have our child’s health in mind with the amount of weight out children’s carry weight in the books.

I am no stranger to the Lands End Back pack, My son has had his  Lands End pack pack since kindergarten.  The backpack is still being used this year as he enters 6th grade- 7 years and it still is in great shape. The thing is if it wasn’t Lands End unconditional guarantee they would replace it.   My son told me tonight he want to carry it to he finishes high school.

We also learned about Lands End jeans are tested to make make sure they last up to 50 washes with out the knees wearing out.  I have a boy so his knees are always a big concern.  I want to make sure that my kids jeans last through out the entire school year.Check the abrasion test they do to make sure the jeans are up to the beating of your typical child.

The night was topped of with  a celebrity chef  Sam Talbot  educated us on healthy lunch option for kids.  Sam was nice enough to show us how to make the following healthy lunch options for kids:

Turkey wrap with avocado and apricot:
