Wet one’s hand wipes of any kind and any type container. I bought these all the time before pandemic, because I was one of those people who before this would board a plane and wipe everything down. These were just always in my vehicles always.

I’ve actually been looking for a rolling backpack for my daughter. With virtual learning and her going to a caregiver while my husband and I work, her backpack is extremely heavy for her. It’s heavy for me. My alternative is her just carrying more lighter bags... I found them online but I cannot justify to myself $60 including shipping for a back pack that she may not even needs as the year goes on...
