Our 2-year old went onto the MacRide from his 2nd birthday more or less and it's great - as jobrim and mistermikkel said, your arms are there and you can also crank the feet in tight with the straps if you want. Partner still takes him on her bike with the Thule Next Mini and he's not bothered either way.
I got a Thule seat for the back (clamps onto the rack in 30secs rather than mounting to seat tube) quite cheaply and this was definitely useful for longer trips eg cycle camping last year. Haven't yet tried the Macride for anything more than 4o mins but maybe your 3yr old sleeps less anyway. I can easily do without the Macride or Thule for a week so if you're near Hackney and want to borrow both and try them out, you're welcome.
