Abstract

A child carrier of the type adapted to be carried on a person's back and having a framework with spaced side frame members includes a novel form of leg stand with a hinged connection to the side frame members for movement between an extended supporting position and a contracted non-supporting position so as to cooperate with the framework when extended to stabilize the child carrier in a vertical orientation on a supporting surface and which when contracted fits closely adjacent to the framework so as not to be an encumbrance when the child carrier is used to support a child on the person's back.
