Elementary kids want to have the “cool” back pack, which usually means their favorite TV or movie characters. Some parents object to spending money for their kid to be a walking billboard. And by the time they are in middle and high school, princesses and super heroes are lame, childish, passe, or whatever term the hip kids are using now. So to help your child be stylish but not a walking advertisement, I found 10 stylish non-character backpacks for under $25.

First, here are two for the younger crowd.
While the style may appeal to older kids both seemed to be on the smaller side.
The American Baseball Cap School Bag comes in 4 different colors. And the Lightweight Canvas Cute Pattern Backpack comes in 9 different styles.
Here are three with a more feminine flare:
The Cute Colorful Backpack on the left comes in 5 different styles and color combinations.
There’s only one style or color of the Pug Print Backpack in the upper right. But if you love pugs (I do, I do!) you only need one to choose from.
There are four colors of the Preppy Style Canvas Bag in the lower right. UPDATE: The one in the photo is no longer available but here’s another great choice.
And finally five with styles and colors for either gender:
Clockwise from upper left:
The Striped Fashion Canvas Book Bag only comes in the one style but is the lowest priced of my selections at $15.
There are seven solid colors to choose from of the Classic Daypack Bookbag. UPDATE: that one is no longer available, try this one instead: Classic Daypack bookbag
The Unisex Canvas Backpack has seven different color combinations. UPDATE: this one is currently unavailable, here’s another choice with some styles slightly over $25: Leaper Lightweight Canvas Backpack
There are 3 solid and 7 patterns of the Multipurpose Backpack.
The Canvas Drawstring Backpack has 2 styles with 5 colors of each. UPDATE: This one is now way over the $25 mark. Here’s another alternative: Kenox canvas school backpack
I was here already earlier today, but it was during the #SITSBlogging chat and I was entering this amazing giveaway sponsored by some other awesome bloggers and yourself at the same time. I didn’t take the time to tell you that these were some cute backpacks.
Thank you for sharing this with us on the #HomeMattersParty. We hope to see you again when we open our doors on Friday at 12AM EST.
Thanks for the support, Crystal.
I really like the navy Preppy backpack! This is a great list. I love the idea of finding good non character one’s. #FridayFrivolity
I love the style on that one too.
