Great for a week trip
Our smaller six year old was able to carry ALL of her own stuff for a week long trip except her second pair of shoes. This included her winter coat in her pack. It was comfy and the clips and hip straps helped even out the load for her. She was a big fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Friggin' awesome packs
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020

So. We took these packs kayaking because we didn't bring a daypack so we filled our kids' packs with water and used these. Well, we all fell out. I thought our keys and wallet were goners, and we would be stuck 2 hours from home while we waited for new keys because our old ones were at the bottom of the Snake River. But, these guys floated like champs, probably because of the water bladders inside, and some kind people rescued us from ourselves. The packs dried out within an hour, they are perfect for my 6 and 7 year old, they can carry snacks and water in them. I would 100% buy these again, but I don't think I will have to as we will buy bigger Osprey packs as my kids grow and pass these on to my 2 and 4 year old. Ospreys are durable and have an awesome guarantee, and I will definitely be purchasing more of their products.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Small 9 Year Old
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2021
Color: Wave BlueVerified Purchase
My small 9 year old carried this on a 2 night backpacking trip. It was big enough for her clothes, backpacks, and snacks and we mounted her extra shoes and sleeping mat on the outside. The frame seemed comfortable on her and was not too tall for her back height. The waist strap was a key feature I was looking for, and I was nervous about this one being mesh. However, it was sturdy enough to keep her comfortable. Highly recommend this pack for younger children, but it would probably be too small for the average 10 year old and up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for little ones
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2023
Color: Wave BlueVerified Purchase
This is a good little pack for just starting out littles or slightly biggers that don’t need to carry much. I adjusted to the smallest possible for my average sized 5 year old’s first backpacking trip. His sleeping bag (Synthetic REI kindercone) filled up the entire pack, but a 5 year old can’t really carry much more than that anyway. He enjoyed being able to carry his snacks in the stretchy pocket on the back. It would be nice if the brain was adjustable but it’s not, so even as he grows he will never really be able to carry more than his sleeping bag unless we get a much more compact one. Even then it wouldn’t be much. We kept this pack over the dueter one because it was a little larger for longer term use, and it has a hip belt. In my opinion the price for this bag is pretty steep. I would not have expected to pay more than about $40 for a pack of this quality with these features, but it did seem to be the best option unfortunately.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great day pack for Littles
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2023

This is going to turn out to be a great day pack for my kids. It was very difficult to find all the features that I like in an adult day pack but for a child.

The outside stretch pocket has plenty of room for a rain jacket or outer layer to stuff into. Dual water bottle pockets, a very minimal hip belt that flattens out of the way when not in use and I like that the hydration bladder is stored on the outside of the pack, so if you need access to it, you don’t have to dig around in the main pack to do so.

3.0 out of 5 stars Almost great
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2020
Color: Wave BlueVerified Purchase
The fit and quality of this pack are great. It is comfortable and adjustable to fit kids about 6 and up.

There are only a couple of minor drawbacks that keep this from being great. The pad "lid" is sew on one side; if it were adjustable front and back then the pack could hold a bit more. Also the pack is just barely too small to fit a kids sized sleeping bag; a sleeping bag isn't that heavy so it is a great thing for kids getting started backpacking to carry. Hiking with kids means bringing more bulk and it is hard to fit a second sleeping bag in my own pack

Perfect for my son to go hiking with. He’s been around 9 and 10 years old (around 150 cm tall) when carrying his sleeping bag and sleeping mat in this bag for several days in a row. No complaints, he says tja backpack feels comfortable to carry. Good top and side pockets for gloves, water bottle etc. Comes with a rain cover.
