It’s getting closer to the date we move into the Apartment and unfortunally there isn’t a basketball court just a swimming pool and gym which is opening later in the year. As well as a Tennis Court with no, nets. Homeschooling Charlie allows us to try new Sports out for PE.

I told David I wanted to pick up a Crocket set which I think we might be able to play on the mock Tennis Courts and Tennis Rackets because we can practice without the nets, Then David is off we can go to a Tennis facility and play. Now that I have my Pickleball Bag Charlie is going to research Picklaball and how its played. Then Charlie and I are going to play.

Giving us a new game to use in PE as well as allowing me to get in exercise to help me lose the weight I need to lose. Would you like to join Charlie and I in Pickleball? If you’ve played Pickleball do you have any tips we can use when playing?

The other day when we were packing Charlie picked up my Picklball bag and let his dad know this didn’t need to go into storage because I can use it for other things until we move. Which I hadn’t thought about. When running errands the other day Charlie stuck my book and his notebook into the bag along with his laptop which fit inside perfectly.

There is a zippered pocket on the back of the purse with a silver ring we can connect our keys to so we always know where they are and wouldn’t lose them. Along with a zippered pocket that will hold money and my Cell Phone keeping them handy at all times. I like how the zipper is done in a splash of pink which makes the zipper stand out.

There are pockets on the ends of the purses which I can use to put a bottle of water for me and one for Charlie in. Or a bag of snacks to snack on after we finish our game. The cloth strap the perfect length to not hang down to low as I’m only 4’9 inches. The strap is made of cloth making the strap comfortable when things are inside the purse and the strap doesn’t dig into our skin.

Inside the bag is plenty of room for anything we need to carry. Including 4 more pockets which allow us to keep the bag orgainized at all times. I use the inside pockets for Hand Sanitizer and hand wipes, a pen and notebook. The last pocket I keep empty for anything I find when running errands.

Inside the bag is lined in a soft grey material that is clean and classy looking. I love how soft the material is. Charlie and I’ve even used our bag as a swimming bag when we went to the pool. I love knowing the bag is perfect for the events I attend because its so classy looking. No, one would know this purse was created as a Pickleberry Bag and would just think its a purse.

I can’t wait to purchase more of these bags in different colors not only for myself but to give as Gifts because they are the perfect Gift for women anytime of the year. If you know of a Teacher and your celebrating Teachers Apprection Day then you might want to pick up a Picklebag for the PE Teacher in your child’s school. If your Homeschooling your children like I am then you should check out this bag for yourself.

A mix of tennis, ping pong and badminton, it’s easy to learn and fun for all ages.
