Moreover, if you’re teaching your little explorer self-sufficiency, they’ll need just about the same space as an adult pack. And, even if it’s only a day hike, chances are that your child will have a long packing list. Whether a small hike or a big adventure, one thing is for certain; kids need a backpack with a lot of space.
The Osprey Ace 38 offers 38 liters of internal space for everything your kid needs to carry.
Additionally, it also features an outside sleeping pad strap so that your little one has room for their camping equipment for overnight adventures. Finally, there are various daisy chain straps for additional exterior storage. We found these useful for carabiner mugs, extra boot laces and hand sanitizer.
