Insignificant at first glance stationery accessories can seriously affect the child’s interest in learning. What is important not to forget with you to school, besides notebooks and textbooks? That's right - writing instruments. And in order for them not to break down along the road and roll out all over the backpack, you should use a special case. How to choose a pencil case for a girl?
What can be found in a modern stationery store?
All existing pencil cases can be divided into three groups: tubes, cosmetic bags and books. Accessories of the first category are most often made of plastic and can be trimmed with fabric. They are a cylinder with a blank bottom and an opening lid. Some models have a screw-down compartment in the bottom for storing the eraser and other small things. Such a pencil case is good for a first-grader girl. It is very convenient to wash, and it is almost impossible to break. The main disadvantage is that all the pens and pencils lie together, when carrying, they hit each other, since they are not fixed by anything.
Most cosmetic cases are very cheap. These are fabric bags, flat or round, closed with a zipper or velcro. All accessories lie together, just like in a tube. If desired, you can find a pencil case of this type with several compartments.
Pencil cases-books have a rigid frame, most often they have 1-2 compartments, less often three. There are elastic bands inside to secure each pen or pencil. Pencil cases with a large number of compartments are convenient for high school, they can carry drawing tools or paint brushes. The main drawback is the large size of the accessory.
Is design important?
You should not choose a pencil case for a girl only for its low price and good quality. Be sure to check with your child what color and pattern he likes more. The easiest way is to choose an accessory for an elementary school student. Fairy-tale princesses and heroes of famous cartoons are depicted on pencil cases of any type and quality. However, even at this age, many girls will be satisfied with neutral patterns with bows or flowers. The most popular colors: pink, purple and lilac.
Beautiful pencil cases for girls are not always expensive, today you can find accessories made of fabric worth up to 100 rubles. However, there is no guarantee that such a cheap product will last the entire academic year, and it is quite possible that it will have to be replaced with a new one within a few months.
When moving to high school, all children want to appear more mature and important. School pencil cases for teenage girls are most often of a neutral design, since using the accessory with the cartoon characters is not solid. The most popular prints are abstract patterns, imitation of the texture of some fabric or fur. Curiously, color preferences also change; some young ladies prefer acid shades, or, on the contrary, “male” ones - gray, blue, green.
How to choose a pencil case for a girl?
Pay attention to functionality and roominess. Cases with dense walls will protect the filling at a possible pressure or impact, but they have more weight and considerable size. Pay attention to the possibility of washing or cleaning the product from contamination in another way. If there are zippers or other locks, they should all open and close well. But to buy a pencil case with or without filling is already a matter of taste, if desired, all stationery can be purchased separately.
