6 Reasons Why Baby Carriers Are Great For Toddlers
Whilst toddlerhood may be thought of as the age at which children have typically mastered walking and don't need carried any longer. It is actually the age at which carrying enters a whole new realm - of adventuring together, averting upsets, and being a regular 'lifesaver'.

Why Choose Organic Cotton?
Wondering what the benefits of using a baby carrier for a toddler are? Are you looking for a toddler backpack carrier for hiking or everyday use and worried about being judged for carrying your big kids? Here our Sling Consultants take you through some key reasons why using a ring sling, wrap or toddler carrier is a great idea!
So. why use a toddler carrier?
1. Little Legs Get Tired
Those of you who love the outdoors know that, more often than not, mountains and places of beauty are a fair walk from the nearest car park. By using a baby carrier, families don't need to wait until their children are older and can handle the entire walk. Instead, they can venture together, perhaps only using the carrier for the last half of the journey, but always knowing it's available when their little one gets tired.
2. Children Change Their Mind
"I want to walk!" And so they do, for the first fifteen minutes, but once you've ventured just far enough for your starting point to be out of reach, they change their mind. With a wrap or carrier tucked away or clipped around your waist, their change of mind needn't upset your plans.
3. A Baby Carrier Provides a Safe and Convenient Place to Nap
Have you ever had your child fall asleep just as you pull into a car park to do your shopping? While a trolley seat cannot support a sleeping child a sleepy transfer into a carrier means that you can both enjoy what you were planning on doing - shopping and sleeping - at the same time.
4. Allows You To Reconnect
Children at this age can be fiercely independent. Yet they usually want to return and seek reassurance and comfort following their latest adventure. Often seeking cuddles or wanting to be carried, your child can be placed in a wrap or carrier, taking the weight off your arms and allowing you both to enjoy this moment of reconnecting.
5. Provides Safety at Big Events
I love going to the Bonfire Night and Fireworks Display in our City and we haven't missed one yet. With over 12,000 people attending, it's simply not safe or enjoyable for my boys to be anywhere except carried close to us. It not only lifts them up above the crowd, but it also enables them to see better, prevents them from getting lost, and allows them to tuck in if they feel overwhelmed.
6. Makes School Runs Easier
School runs are much easier when you're only having to keep eyes on one person. So carrying a younger sibling can make the experience more enjoyable for all of you. Our personal favourite for this is a ring sling, as it's so quick and easy to pop on.
