2yr old Bday Present
I found this cute idea for a book bag. I was thinking about making one for my 2yr old cousin's son and putting a few books in it. I would love it-but he's really into sports and not reading.
Would you like it-or think it was a dumb gift? 
I would do his name and make the main fabric of the bag firetrucks-which he is obsessed with right now.

Maybe this one is a better idea, so it can close?! That way he doesn't lose toys or books out of the top?
That's not dumb at all! I would venture to say that will be the best gift at the party. It's personal, handmade, and will be full of books. Seriously, it doesnt' get much better than that! :-)
You could fill it with books about sports. target has some really cute board books in the $1 spot that are all about bugs and creep crawlies--would he like those?

SWEETNESS! I'll email your Gmail acct.
personally I like the 1st one you showed, the Hobo is cute, but doesn' have handles. Say you were to go to the library, it would make it harder for mom to carry that way!
And Mrs.Reem makes a valid point maybe a BIG first letter of their name?
