Ages 7 to 11

Many Australian primary schools ask for a library bag so borrowed books and home readers stay protected on the way home. The Spixal Kids Library Bag is water resistant, closes with a velcro flap and fits A4 books and folders.

Keep the reader, reading log and any return note together so they can be handed over without emptying the whole backpack. On library day, check whether the school expects a particular size or closure before ordering. Put the book bag away from the drink bottle and lunch containers inside the backpack. Water resistance helps with everyday use, but it cannot protect a book from every spill or a bottle left open.

Yes. The Axis Kids Backpack Bundle includes the backpack, matching library bag and matching pencil case for $79.99, a 20% saving on buying each piece separately ($99.97).

Compare the exact pieces in the set with the individual items you would otherwise buy. A saving is useful when those are the pieces you need; an extra bag that stays in the cupboard adds little value. Prices and promotions can change, so use the current product page and cart total for the final comparison. Check the selected colour as well, because the photos and included pieces belong to that particular listing.

The Spixal insulated food jar holds 800ml, enough for a proper serve of soup, pasta or leftovers, kept warm or cold until lunchtime.

Match the jar to the food portion rather than your child's age alone. A smaller jar can hold a warm side alongside a sandwich, while a larger jar suits the main meal. Before ordering, measure a usual serving into a measuring jug and compare it with the listed capacity. Also consider whether your child can open the lid and whether the filled jar fits upright in the lunch bag.

The Axis backpack comes in Pink, Purple, Leopard, Camo, Blue, Navy Orange, Black and Green, with library bags and pencil cases made in the same colourways so the whole kit coordinates.

Choose the backpack first if that is the piece your child cares most about, then look for the same colourway in the library bag and pencil case. Check the selected variant on each product page before adding it. A colour shown in a group photograph is not a promise that every piece is currently available. Name the smaller pieces too; they often spend more time outside the backpack than inside it.
