A kids' ultralight backpacking tent that actually earns its pack space

Getting a kid their own tent is a milestone — it’s the first piece of independence they can carry on their back. This ultralight backpacking tent earns its pack space if your kids are going to camp regularly. It’s light enough that they can carry it themselves, which is half the point, and sturdy enough that you won’t worry about a snapped pole halfway up the trail. If they’re serious about camping, invest in something that just works.
