For all your stuff - the Mommy Hook!!

Don't worry, we're not going to hang YOU up!! :) Really!!

Even now, after 6 1/2 years with children in the family, I am still amazed at how much stuff we need to bring with us, or how much stuff we accumulate on even the most casual of outings. And, I'm trying to be minimalist here! :) My arms can only carry so much, and often I have the stroller without a basket under, and of course, no one wants to help carry bags - "they're too heavy!" (said in a whiny, poor-me-I'm-so-weak, voice!) :)

When I was offered a Mommy Hook, I jumped at the chance! This super strong and very large hook (essentially a large carabiner clip) attaches easily to your stroller handle, and can be used to help attach some of the stuff you're schlepping around so your arms are free (you know, for pushing the stroller plus carrying at least 1 more child!) It can also attach to a shopping cart, or be used as is to help prevent those bags from biting into your hands.

The Mommy Hook is made from durable, heavy-duty aluminum and is lightweight and versatile. I especially like the rubber grip - it's comfortable to hold on to and helps keep The Mommy Hook from slipping. Lately when we've been walking to school, I've had the youngest walker hold on to The Mommy Hook at least while we are crossing the street - she's 2 (I babysit) and it's been great for her, as it's easier to hold on to than the stroller itself, and great for me because she's right there with me and easy for me to keep track of.

The Mommy Hook is available at many retailers throughout Canada and the US, including Zellers, The Bay, Toys R Us, Babies R Us, and soon at Canadian Wal-Marts as well.
