CamelBak Mini M.U.L.E. Kids Hydration Backpack, 50 oz, Camelflage

These are fantastic. I’m always hunting the grandkids down to make sure they are drinking enough. We live in the desert southwest and hydration is extra important. They also love going on hikes or exploring. These hold enough water to keep the kids well hydrated. There are pockets that hold any treasures they find. The straps are very comfortable and the safety whistle is a brilliant addition. The colors are very bright and they look as good as they work. No more lost cups and bottles. No more buying reusable bottles for them to lose and no more buying single use bottles that get thrown away. We don’t have recycling anywhere near me. One of the pockets has a clip inside and there are both zippered pockets and open adjustable pockets. These are perfect for camping, hiking, fishing, or whatever adventure your kids can dream up. Definitely worth every penny.

Prior to ordering this item, I did LOTS of research on various hydration reservoirs and determined that one of my priorities was to get a quick link type of attachment for connecting/disconnecting the hose to and from the reservoir. I had looked separately at getting a Crux Reservoir without a backpack, and the pictures show such a quick link and the video makes a point of saying how easy and convenient that feature is. So, when I found this - a backpack that included a Crux Reservoir (only modestly more expensive than the reservoir alone), I was psyched. But it must be that there was a previous generation of Crux Reservoirs that didnt have the quick link and thats whats included with this backpack. That was a dealbreaker for me, so Im returning this.

This is the perfect size for young kids to carry while hiking. I love that they can have their water with them and they can pack their own snacks! No more having to stop and get their snacks/Water out of my bag! Mom win!

We got this for our nephew because he wanted one like us and he absolutely loves it. He wears it to school sometimes and took it on his camping trip with his grandparents. This cost way less than our camelbaks, def a great deal.

I bought this for my daughter to get used to carrying her own water while hiking. It is fine if you only plan to carry water. I was a bit disappointed with the tiny pockets on it for anything else though. The pockets are so small, I dont think I can even fit an apple in them. I can fit a clif bar in one pocket and her tiny binoculars in another. Overall, I would recommend something else with just a normal large pocket and water bladder instead.

They fit early elementary school kids perfectly. Its so much easier to keep them going when they have their own water!

The bladder of the camel back has a small hole, not even going to try to prove it wasn’t by me so it’s a loss

Got this for my 2 year old, and while it is a bit big for him (meant for 3+ I believe) he adores it. Still has a bit of difficulty figuring out that bite valve has to be horizontal rather than vertical, but he loves to feel included when we get our packs on for a hike.

Great packed, great size, these are must have kids for biking, hiking or even skiing.

The bag is awesome, my son loves it, but the bladder leaked from around the fill port when it arrived. I reached out to Camelbak and they got back to me within a few hours and sent me a video on how to Uninstall and reinstall and it works flawlessly now. My son is super excited, Im excited, and their customer service was great!
