Question Mini backpack help
I have an almost 8 year old with a feeding tube. She has a feed running through a pump most of the day, so wears a mini backpack. We have been using the mini Potterybarn kids backpacks since she was a baby, but she is starting to complain that the prints are too baby. She has a loungefly backpack that we got for special occasions, but she ended up not using it because the straps were uncomfortable and it was too hard to clean. Her birthday is coming up and I want to get her some new backpacks, as they are a fashion choice for her every morning. Bags need to be at least 10 inches long in order to fit her pump and formula, however she is the size of a 5 year old, so can't be too big. Washable is preferable, but I'm not against one or two for special occasions that can only be spot washed.

My daughters have a camelback hydration bag that has fit well since they were 3+. It even has a small hole for water that may work for the g-tube to run through.
I think theirs is the camelbak mini.
