harness for very little kids?

[gibbon]

Anyone know of.any harnesses, ideally full body, which would fit kids age 3 plus? I would love to set up some zip lines for my daughter and nephew this summer.

Petzl do one called the Ouistiti, for aged 4 up wards.

For smaller kids just make somehting up out of old rope.

I saw a few age 4 plus. My wife would have a fit of a made a rope harness. Other option would be to use a toddler swing seat

HAve you ever seen how to make an emergency harness from a sling? Its a handy trick for hillwalking etc, you could do the same using loops of rope instead fof the sling so you can make it small enough. Why would a homemade one out of 24kN rope not be good enough for small child if its good enough for us to climb on?

Then you get another sling put it over one arm round your back and under the other arm, back through the first bit and clip it into the same biner, that makes a chest harness too.

I've used the Petzl one with my daughters. This harness has a high attachment point which prevents inversion but you have to be careful how you attach to it - you don't want to knock them on the face with a krab.
