Fact #1. A brief survey of various cultures, both ancient and extant, reveals a variety of clever ways people have devised to carry children securely and with reduced effort for the adult. One of the most iconic images of babywearing is of the fur parka worn by Inuit mothers of the frigid Arctic region.
Fact #2. Many Native American tribes adopted the use of a device known as the cradleboard. This involved a frame made of wood overlaid with soft fibers that formed a safe, supportive slot for a child. The cradleboard could be carried on an adult's back or laid down when the parents weren't on the move.
Fact #3. Modern parents have considerably more baby carrying options at their disposal. Many popular child carriers of today are modeled directly on their ancient forebears. For ideal weight distribution for the adult trekker, a baby backpack is the ideal child transport solution.
Fact #4. Different baby backpacks can accommodate different sizes of children. Thus the size of your child generally dictates which carriers you can even consider. If your child's weight exceeds the range of a backpack's stated weight rating, it's not even worth considering. Once you've identified a few viable options for your child's size, consider the pack's accessories. Sun shields are often a must, as children have delicate skin.
Fact #5. Remember that extended jostling about in a backpack can be a rigorous experience for a youngster. Make sure you and your child both get plenty of fluids during a hike or an afternoon spent traveling the city. Watch out for signs that excessive heat, cold, sunlight, or other elements may be having adverse effects on your passenger. Never keep your child in a backpack for more than an hour at a time, and don't overwork yourself, either.
