It’s the perfect Christmas gift for little ones to take their marmalade sandwiches to nursery or school
With Christmas just around the corner, many parents have started to look for cute and practical gifts. One such present proving popular at the moment is Marks and Spencer’s Kids’ Paddington Small Backpack – which is as much a hit with parents as it is children.
While M&S is offering the Kids’ Paddington Small Backpack for £16, we’ve found a way to get it for much less. This is due to a cashback deal from TopCashback, which is offering new signees the opportunity to get the backpack for 73p after cashback as long as they’re also new M&S customers.
Meanwhile, those who are new to TopCashback but are existing M&S customers are instead being offered the backpack for 87p once cashback has been applied. For that affordable price, you get access to a versatile backpack suitable for both school and days out across the holidays.

Shoppers should note, though, that the above prices include free click and collect. However, if you want the backpack sent straight to your door, you will instead need to pay an extra £3.99 for standard delivery.
The Kids’ Paddington Small Backpack is ideal for any child who loves the iconic little bear. Sporting a bright sky blue colour, the backpack also contains various motifs of the little bear’s London journey, including double-decker buses, Big Ben, and Paddington himself.
Aside from that, the backpack also comes with practical features, including Stormwear protection, which helps to ensure that anything kept inside the backpack stays dry against rain showers. It also includes multiple pockets to help with organising all of your little one’s belongings.
If you want something a little different, you could opt for the Lekeinchi Waterproof Laptop Backpack, which is currently available for £30.59 on Amazon for a limited time. This roll-top backpack comes with enough space for a 17-inch laptop and is built with a waterproof polyurethane fabric.
Otherwise, if you want to spend even less, you could opt for the Amazon Basics Travel Laptop Backpack, which is currently available for £27.18. This backpack provides enough space for a 17-inch laptop and features multiple pockets for a wide variety of items.
Shoppers who already grabbed the Kids’ Paddington Small Backpack awarded it a near-perfect 4.7 stars on M&S, with one shopper writing: “I love this little bag. It has clips so it can over the pram. It has a front pocket and it big enough for nappies wipes spare clothes, my purse etc looks great also.”
Another added: “Nice quality, highly recommended. Good size and nice pattern.” A third said: “Great back pack suitable for my needs strong wipeable. Handy size side pockets great feature.”
A fourth added: “I bought this bag for my son who is starting Nursery soon. It is a good size and is a very cute design. The side pocket/bottle holder is very handy. The bag is showerproof and wipes clean very easily. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this to others.”
A fifth added: “Lovely bag , good quality and plenty of room as child only one.” A sixth added: “Nice quality, good size for an 18 month old to take to nursery.”
However, one less pleased customer wrote: “I had to return this as one of the straps kept opening when in use.” Another added: “Lovely little backpack for my son. I would say it’s a little overpriced for the size and material, but still very cute.”
