Review on Exploring the Outdoors with the Outdoor Products Tadpole Hydration Pack by Paul Monzon

Amazing quality bag

My kids are 4 and 7 years old and love them! We walk a lot and are tired of lugging around water bottles and snacks with everyone - glad to have found such a well made, quality bag. The bonus is that it comes with a lifetime guarantee! I've done a lot of research on hydration bags and while I didn't want a "brand name" or an overly expensive bag, I wanted a quality bag with zippered pockets for snacks and other essentials and I'm so glad I found this one. The size was also important to me. Many other bags on Amazon were listed as children's bags but were 18 inches long, too big for a 2-8 year old if you ask me! It's the perfect size (about 14 inches) and light weight! The other important thing for me was the chest strap. And it was one of the few that had that option in my price range. My 4 year old definitely uses the strap and it stays in place so well when hiking. The only problem I have is with the tube, it's very, very long. Sometimes when we try to stuff it in a bag, it creases and they can't get water. After some practice I think we figured it out, but I wish they had made the tube a little shorter. Otherwise it's good to drink from. Hope this review helps others. I will insert many photos.
