Good backpack carrier for 10 month old??

[Kareng8168]

We will be at WDW for our first family trip May 7-14 and our youngest son will be 10 months old. We are bringing our own stroller for him, but we are looking at purchasing a backpack carrier for him. We did not have one for our older son, but it seems like a great way to carry him hands-free and let him be up high and look around. I think he would love it, as he loves to be out of the stroller and check things out. Can anyone recommend a good backpack carrier or share an experience of bringing one to the parks? We are looking at purchasing the Cross Terrain Carrier by Evenflo. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I have done this with both my kids b/c strollers weren't loved by them after more than 1 hour. This way the toddler gets a great view, can fall asleep, and in some ways you feel like the baby is not really there b/c they are just so content. I would recommend wearing them in the backpack before the trip so that you get used to it.

I have a Kelty Country carrier, but most are the same. Quite comfortable for a long period, at least for me and others who have recommended them.

The evenflo carriers are also good, but I would recommend a purchase over ebay rather than new, b/c most parents never actually wear them out. And you can get them for a good price. Have fun
