"Hi I'm Liz Hood on behalf of Expert Village and I'm going to be talking about taking a baby out on a hike one thing that you just have to generally keep in mind is be a lot more flexible than you were a baby. You need to make plans to go on shorter hikes first really make sure that you try this snugly gear out before hand, before you go out into the wilderness. Be prepared definitely double check everything you have cause you don't want to be stuck in the woods without clean diapers. And in general I mean that's that kind of goes along with being a good parent anyway, be flexible and always be prepared and be ready to change plans if need be. You know if the temperature changes gets way to hot and humid for the little one you need to keep an eye on that and go on back. But with all that said once you can actually make it out and introduce these little guys to the out doors it is very entertaining to them, I like having him facing front so that he can look around and it's a really fun time for the whole family."
