From RockCreek:
"Camelbak's Skeeter Hydration Pack is a simple 35-oz. system for the young ones. It is perfect for when you take the kids to the park, bike rides, or a trip to the beach. With enough water for 1 to 2 hours of fun, this system keeps your children thirst free with their own CamelBak system."

From Backcountry.com:
"CamelBak made the Kids' Skeeter Hydration Pack with a super low-profile design, so this pack feels comfortable all day and won't get caught on tree branches as your kid careens down the bike trail. The Skeeter's wicking back panel keeps back sweat at bay. The HydroTanium water reservoir prevents residue build-up, so your kid's water or sport drink doesn't taste icky. This CamelBak pack has reflective stripes for nighttime safety, and the Skeeter is machine washable for easy de-dirtifying."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Sized to fit kids ages five and up, the Camelbak Skeeter Hydration Pack features a compact design and an internal 35-oz. OMEGA Reservoir. Camelbak recently refined their entire OMEGA Reservoirs with a HydroTanium polyurethane film that further enhances the integrity of one of the most burst-resistant hydration reservoirs in the industry. The Skeeter Hydration Pack doesn't have a clutter of pockets, but it does have plenty of reflective elements to increase rider visibility in low light conditions. A breathable wicking mesh backpanel helps pull perspiration away from your child's back for better comfort on long rides and hikes. Camelbak suggests that a liter of water should keep a kid hydrated for one to two hours, but this often depends on environmental conditions and how long the novelty of chewing on the self-sealing Big Bite Valve lasts (in field tests we found that a few kids under the age of five chewed through the Bite Valve until it wouldn't properly seal--you may want to pass this parental advice along to your eager riders, hikers and campers)."

"My 4-year-old daughter LOVES this pack and so do I. It carries enough water to keep her hydrated for an all-day outing and even has enough room for some trail bars, her rain shell and extra socks.

We wanted to find her a pack that wouldn't wear her out but would still be functional and allow her to start carrying some of her own gear - this pack is the solution."
