The 10 Best Toddler Carrier Backpacks
This wiki has been updated 22 times since it was first published in November of 2018. Hiking with a toddler is a whole different experience from babywearing with an infant. Even children who snuggled up contentedly in cozy wraps as newborns may throw your back out as they get more active and eager to explore the world around them. These framed packs and soft structured carriers are designed to be supportive and comfortable as their passengers grow bigger, stronger and wigglier.
