I bought this for my two year old thinking it would be perfect for travel and I was right! We used to haul her heavy diaper bag on and off the plane with us and it's so much easier to just throw a couple outfits for her in my carry on and put her little snacks, games, and coloring books in her bag. It's obviously not a full size backpack, but you can fit quite a bit inside and she LOVES wearing it! It's like she has a whole new walk when she has it on! I'd highly recommend any Skip Hop Zoo pack, but the ladybug is by far the cutest!!
