Honestly I think it is ridiculous that any child requires a 'roller bag'. I am not saying your child does not, my guess is that she does. What I am saying is that no young child should have so many books to bring home that it requires a small suitcase to avoid injury.

Somehow the US managed to produce engineers that took us to the moon and invented the PC and the graphical interface without loading them up with hours of homework when they were young children. I fail to see why it should be different now.

The water bottle on the other hand, is the ability to "hydrate" at any time really that important? Is a drinking fountain in between classes so unthinkable?

This is why I feel that the Germans, as a whole, make the best cars. You see more of these small, thoughtful, useful touches on Audis, BMWs, Mercs, and VWs more than you do on a lot of Japanese or American models. It just feels like they went the extra mile to think of everything and focus on the details.

Wouldn't you just...you know...put the water bottle INSIDE the lunch bag to ensure it did not roll around? Or, if it's to be kept separate, just put it into a cupholder where your daughter is sitting, like you would with any other passenger?
