Designed to carry children 6 months to 3 years of age whose parents want to share their passion for the outdoors with their young children. Ideal when Mum and Dad are planning shopping trips, trips to the park and short walks in the hills. Although they will carry children older than this the limiting factor is the child''s weight. Eighteen kilos (18 kg) is the maximum recommended load, not including any equipment. The weight and length of time you want to carry for, both yours and junior''s comfort levels, are also deciding factors.
