Gizmag Outdoors – Carry your child, water and gear with the Piggyback Rider

The Piggyback Rider Backpack is the latest way to carry your child on your back. The newest models add more storage capabilities to the Piggyback Rider system, which lets your child essentially stand on your back.

Introduced last summer, the Piggyback Rider is a newer spin on the classic child carrier. Unlike other carriers, it allows your child to essentially stand over your shoulders and head, giving him or her a better vantage point for viewing parades, wildlife, and other other attractions and events. The device includes two shoulder straps, a chest strap, and a foot bar that the child stands on. A safety harness keeps the child tethered to you, and he holds onto two grab handles to keep stable. It’s recommended for children 2 1/2 years or older and 60 lbs. (27 kg) or less.
