This backpack is really wonderful. Purchased for my son’s second birthday - he gets such a kick out of drinking from our hydration pack we wanted to get him a bag so he could carry his own. Not only does he love carrying his own water but it fits him wonderfully!

This is the cutest backpack! It fits our 2 year old perfectly. It’s comfortable for her and she will keep it on for long periods of time. She loves to take it places.

My 2yo son loves this backpack! We got it so he'd have something hiking but its turned into an everyday bag for his toys when we go out.

Store owner replied: That's awesome Mary. Thank you for the 5* review. Glad you guys love the "Little Explorer" Hiking Backpack and are finding multiple uses for it!

This backpack is great. My 2.25 year old son potty trained and graduated from a diaper bag that I carried to a small backpack that he carries. He is on the small/skinny side and this backpack was indeed small enough to not overwhelm his small body. It has a great amount of pockets that he can open himself and has room for him to grow into it more. He is proud to carry it. The style is a great fit for our outdoorsy family. I really didn't want a cheap toddler backpack covered in TV characters he doesn't watch. I would fully recommend this backpack for any toddler!

My grandson absolutely loves his little backpack. He wears it around the house all the time and is excited to use it this summer when he and his parents go on a hike. Wonderful product and look forward to purchasing more in the future.

This brightly colored backpack is really good looking, and the quality looks good. The parents and other grandparents ooh'd and ah'd at our grandson's first birthday. It really is too big still though (says 2-5 years). And I still don't know what hydration ready means.
