In Piney Point Village, parents are preparing for the new school year. As they shop for back-to-school items, they should consider the weight of their child's backpack. A child's backpack can contain various items, including laptops and sports equipment.
This can lead to a heavy load that may be difficult for kids to carry. Further information on determining if a backpack is too heavy and how to reduce the weight is available from local news sources, such as KPRC 2.
