I don't have kids, but this looks like an awesome way to raise them.

I had a trailer because we didn’t really have the space for a long bike. It folded flat for ease of storage. It was a pain to get bike out, trailer out, kid out, put wheels and tow arm on trailer, trailer on bike, kid in trailer… then do it all in reverse when we got home. Living in a place where cars rule the road, even with nice bike lanes, having the wide trailer behind was nerve wracking.

I ended up getting a seat for the rear rack.
