I asked the doctor about that when the kids were very small , I explained what we did and the possibility of a roll or hard hits. He told me that as soon as a child can control their head , meaning their neck muscles were strong enough , that it was fine to take them off roading in the proper child seat. I always took the kids back in the day and had three car seats that wrapped around them very well and were for the Jeep only ( that was to keep momma happy ) . The doctor also told me that it was good for the development of strong neck muscles and was good for them. I always waited until the car seats could be faced foward before the kids could go with me. IMHO
Most of the time they would be fast asleep as soon as I hit the trail and stay that way until we stopped moving.
