If you’ve reached the point in your parenting where your kids ever leave your side for more than a few hours, whether it be to a childcare situation or to Grandma’s house, you know the ridiculous amount of stuff you have to pack for them. The more you send of their own things, the more secure they’ll feel. If you get your child a cool bag like the Kushies all-in-one “My Bag” overnight/daycare/travel bag they’ll be begging you to hit the road.

There’s a boy version and a girl version, and they each have a bunch of compartments and features including insulated snack and medicine boxes, clean and dirty clothes bags, a laundry bag and a comfy fleece pillow and blanket for naptime. The inside bags each have a space for a name, which is awesome for a daycare or camp situation, and there’s a hook for hanging the bag up on a hook. It’s actually large enough for two children to share if they’re just going for a day or overnight, and for one child it’s big enough to bring some toys along too!

The bag retails for $79 at Kushies Online, and you can save 10% on any order from Kushies with the code top10.

As you likely know, Kushies is a huge retailer and makes diapering products (we love their training pants!), clothing, bedding, bath products and more. The code top10 saves you 10% on ANY order from Kushies Online.

We love to travel with our kids and whether it be a 20 minute drive or a 20 hour drive there are times when we would have given our right arms to have our Exersaucer in the van so we could put our baby down without the fear of her (a) crawling away or (b) touching or, heaven forbid, eating something really gross when we just weren’t able to wear her any longer. Thanks to the amazing PopATot we’re now free to rock and roll with the kids anywhere the wind carries us. Folding into an impressively small carry bag (picture a folding camping chair) it’s the most portable piece of completely necessary baby equipment we’ve yet to find. Except, you know – the baby.

Created by mom Stacy Ellsworth, it’s simply a portable baby activity center that packs away in its own carrying case. Just take it out of the bag, pull it open, secure two clips, plop the kid inside, and she can safely play with whatever goodies you clip to the five toy hooks on top. Each order comes with a free set of Sassy Lively Links to get you started – not that you don’t already have eleventy bazillion things lying around the house that you could attach, but the ones that come with the PopATot aren’t previously chewed; a nice bonus for a second child for sure. The PopATot features two cupholders and a built in canvas floor to protect the babe from sand & grass. It’s light enough to easily tote around – particularly if you’re used to toting camp chairs – but sturdy enough to stand up to my big boy and his buddies climbing in and all over it.

For a limited time you get a $10 rebate making the PopATot just $50 with free shipping. For international orders (that’s us Canadians, though we certainly don’t feel international) you’ll need to contact Stacy directly as her site doesn’t accommodate international orders at this time.

Win it! We’ve got a PopATot to give away. To enter, check out the PopATot site and then come back and leave a comment on this post before noon mst on February 23, 2009.

Until just three days ago, I was a mother of two children who had never puked. I’ve been initiated by the younger of the two and have now been barfed on more times than I care to count. At home, it wasn’t such a big deal. Gross, but not a big deal. Strip the kid, toss in tub, lather, rinse, repeat. In the car, however, it’s a very very big deal. Thank goodness I had a YakPack in my vehicle yesterday! The YakPack is a comprehensive puke & clean up kit that’s perfect for parents. Available online at www.TheYakPack.com, The YakPack is small enough to easily fit in a glove compartment or a diaper bag, or in the pocket in the back of a car seat. The YakPack includes a otion sickness bag and absorbent lap pad, vomit absorbent/odor neutralizer, scoop and scraper for rapid removal, antimicrobial wipes, heavy duty dry cloth and non-latex gloves for clean-up, a biohazard (heh) bag for removal and disposal and it all comes in a clear zippered bag for convenient storage.

The YakPack isn’t just for vehicles, though. The carpet under my daughter’s crib still smelled sour even after being cleaned. I have no idea what’s in the powder ior if it’s non-toxic, but out of curiousity I sprinkled the powder on the carpet and vacuumed it up a few hours later and the smell was gone. Whatever it is, it works!

A single YakPack is $8.00. Orders of six or more are $7.00 per pack.

Living in what some might consider the Timbuktu of the Canadian prairies, I’ve never before seen a Mutsy stroller in my neck of the woods.

For the past while, we’ve been cruising the town in our new 4 Rider and have been getting looks left, right & center.

Looks that say “Where on earth did you get that beautiful machine, and where can I get mine?”

The Mutsy 4 Rider arrives in three rather large boxes (chassis & wheels in one, seat in another and bassinet in another). That may be a concern if you have a compact vehicle and you’re buying at a retail store instead of online (but why when you can get free shipping?) but I didn’t think the boxes together were much larger than the one huge box that my good old travel system of years gone by came in.

My two year old and I opened the boxes and had the 4 Rider assembled in no more than 5 minutes. The four wheels popped on the aluminum chassis in seconds and clicked in easily. We opened up the chassis & clicked it into the locked position (again – in seconds). From there, we grabbed the seat out of the other box and clicked it in to the chassis. Ta da – stroller. No tools, no fuss.

The 4 Rider comes standard with both a bassinet and seat, which can be clicked in facing forward or backward. Also available, ordered separately, are a dinner tray (the standard is simply a padded bar), footmuffs, a step-up board which converts the 4 Rider into a stand & ride for two children, a Fun Seat, raincovers, 2 types of bags, and an attachment which allows a standard Graco carseat to snap in. There’s also a sitter available that turns the 4 Rider seat into a bouncer/rocker for your home.

The handle is telescoping to 5 positions which allows both my husband and I, a foot apart in height, ample comfort in pushing it.

The single spoke wheels have pneumatic tires for awesome comfort & a cool minimalistic modern look. It comes with a mini pump which tucks away attached inside the basket for pumping emergencies. The front wheels are fully swiveling making this stroller exceptionally maneuverable and the wide wheel base make it extremely stable. The Mutsy 4Rider is quick to fold with or without the bassinet or seat attached to the frame.

The 4 Rider weighs 23.2 lbs – not light but certainly doable – and folds to approximately 41 x 25×12 inches. You’re likely going to want a smaller & lighter stroller like the Mutsy Spider for quick trips & rides in other people’s teeny vehicles.

The 4 Rider is available in Canada from Macklem’s in Toronto, but it appears they only sell over the phone. There are also a few other retail locations in the great white north. Online you can order from Baby Guru ($929 Cdn). In the US you can find Mutsy products on sites all over the web, including Goores (the 4 rider is currently ~$575) and, as with everything including the kitchen sink, you lucky Americans can get it from Amazon. Mutsy products are also available in several brick and mortar stores across the US.

Save 10% on any Mutsy order from Goores with the code topmu.

It’s time to get booking those holiday flights, and since the holidays don’t really seem like the appropriate time to ditch the kids with Grandma you’re going to have to bring them with you. Kids and confined spaces aren’t a great combination at the best of time. Try it for hours on end and mix it with the excitement of the holiday season and you could very well be screwed if you don’t plan ahead.

Portable Playtime is a patent-pending kids backpack that converts to a playmat designed to fit the airplane tray table. It’s the ideal accessory for traveling by air. As your child’s carry-on, it is lightweight and foldable and looks like a compact backpack. When you open it, though, Portable Playtime becomes an instant playmat that fits on the fold-out trays on airplanes. It is secured by adjustable straps and features easy-to-use zippers and several pockets for storing toys and snacks. More important than storing them, though, is the fact that it provides a germ-free snacking & play area in what is otherwise a germ-filled bubble.

Portable Playtime comes in five fun styles: Plane Fun (pictured @ top & middle) , Aero Playin’, Princess Adventure, Pirate Passage, and Enchanted Journey.

Now that I’ve got my Portable Playtime ready for my preschooler’s first airplane ride, I just need someone to buy me the ticket. Any takers?

There are barely six weeks until Christmas, and many of us are already planning ahead for that often dreaded holiday travel. Sure, it’s fabulous (we hope!) once you get there, but traveling with kids can be less than fun. Little Jet Set (sound familiar?), a company founded by two former-attorneys-turned-traveling mamas, offers some great toys, gifts and other fun ideas for traveling families. Anything to make the time pass without screaming contests sounds like a great idea to me!

Gobblet on the Go is a fun travel-sized game that plays just like the timeless tic-tac-toe except that you can gobble up your opponent’s pieces and move yours around the board. The first player to line up 3 pieces in a row wins. It takes just seconds to learn and a few minutes to play, and is great for kids from age 5 right up to adults. The wooden board and pieces conveniently come in a mesh drawstring bag for portability. It would fit great on an airplane tray table or between two kids sitting in the back seat of the car. You know, right on the imaginary line that they’re both so tempted to cross.

Check out Little Jet Set for this and more awesome ways to entertain your kids while on the road this holiday season.

Whether you’re still in the space of packing everything but the kitchen sink every time you leave the house or you’ve moved on to the days of trying to remember a diaper & a few wipes, you’re going to love the Diaper Change Travel Kit from well-known baby & child manufacturer, Munchkin.

No matter where you are, you can have a comfortable, clean surface to change your baby. The design is truly awesome and I leave mine in my vehicle so I’m never without the necessities. (As long as I remember to restock it!) There’s a zippered outside pocket for storing your personal items and interior mesh pockets hold diapers, wipes (it comes with the case) and other essentials. The changing pad detaches easily for separate use, though I’ve never had a need to do so, and there’s a cushioned pillow for baby’s comfort. The carry strap attaches to any stroller or, in my case, the handle on the back of a vehicle seat. It comes in three colours – tan, pink and black.

Win it! We’ve got a Munchkin Diaper Change Travel Kit in black to give away to one randomly selected reader. To enter browse the Munchkin products and comment on this post with at least one of your faves (not including the Diaper Change Travel Kit, natch) before noon mst on November 13, 2008.

We travel rather frequently because none of our family lives where we do. We travel packed from floor to roof in our mommy-van because we take our own…well, everything.

One thing I refuse to leave behind is the playpen. We use it for a bed and for a safe restraint and a used one is just…ew. Well, it was ew until I discovered the Coverplayard designed by smart-mom Allison Costa.

The aptly named Coverplayard is a slip cover liner that gender neutralizes any playpen, protects your babe from the germies on a borrowed unit or just modernizes your own playpen. It slips on and off easily and fits most any playpen – just slip it on and attach it with Velcro and pop it off and into the wash when it needs it. It’s absolutely perfect for hotels and anywhere else you take the babes, and comes in several awesome designs.

Starting at just $50, the Coverplayard is way cheaper than buying a new playpen and more convenient than dragging your own everywhere you go. Thanks Allison – now my kids have room in the van to pack “just one more toy!”

With a two year old and a newborn, a family trip is not my idea of a good time. Sure, we have fun once we get there, but travel is a nightmare and even when we’re there we’re still missing the comforts of home. Whether it’s an hour from home or a twelve hour flight, Little Jet Set has you covered with everything to keep kids well prepared for your next travel adventure. From travel games and art supplies, luggage and toiletries and everything in between, all of the products are all conducive to travel on the road or in the air.

Little Jet Set was founded by two well-traveled attorneys turned well-traveled moms. Hana Wolf & Nisha Cordero have “been there, done that” and have chosen only the best items in every category for their site.

I’m a huge fan of the nap pack (pictured), a 48″ long soft fleece blanket with attached 11×16″ pillow for nap time on the go. Great for planes and cars, and also perfect for nap time in hotels or at Great Aunt Martha’s place.

No matter what you choose from this great online shop, it’s sure to enhance your travels. A well prepared mom is a happy mom!

As a bit of a major clothing snob, I hate to package up one of my kids’ nice and rather costly outfits for the inevitable poop explosion, accident or mud fight. Nothing like carrying a $70 outfit around in your diaper bag until it’s too small.

I was so excited to discover babysparewear, where for $30-$52 you can get a complete outfit or two in a zippered waterproof travel pouch just for situations like that. Babysparewear is made for both babies and toddlers by creative mom Veronica Milito. Babysparewear are “chic, “emergency” travel kits with key items to mix-and-match or wear as an outfit. A modern approach to a simple idea.”

The outfits in the pouches are super soft & super comfy yoga-style duds that kids won’t mind changing in to and even the most fashion conscious parents won’t mind putting on the kids. The zippered pouches are sturdy enough to use for years, even when your children no longer require a change of clothing. Does that ever happen?

Guest review by TOP reader Sara

As a parent, getting into a car accident with my child is something I never want to think about. However, the chance of it happening is very real. Did you know that in the event of an accident, paramedics almost always transport the child in their car seat to the hospital?Have you ever thought about what it would be like for your child if you were not with them or were not able to talk for him/her? Scary, huh? Well, Chicks and Cubs has a solution. They have put together a “Car Seat ID Kit” that attaches to your child’s car seat. It contains a card with all your child’s most important information including: Name, Address, Date of Birth, Weight, Height, Telephone Numbers, Allergies, Doctor, and a place for you to give authorization for your child to be treated in your absence. It also contains a space for a photo and thumb print for identification.

The “Car Seat ID Kit” was something so important and super-easy to assemble and use! It comes with a Ultra-Fine tip marker to fill the card out with all your child’s information, a self-laminating card, and velcro strips to fasten it to the seat. It literally took less than 5 minutes to get it from the package to the car seat. Such a simple task for something that could be of vital importance later.

Although I hadn’t given this very much thought beforehand, I realize now just how beneficial the “Car Seat ID Kit” could be! Just a paramedic being able to call your child by his/her name could be profoundly calming in a stressful and chaotic event of an accident…. And the information on the card has the potential of being life-saving! I believe that this is a product that every parent should invest in for their children. And at only $10.00, this is such an inexpensive way to protect your little one! Being a parent means being prepared…and not just for the good things!

Chicks and Cubs is a great “Mom-Owned” company that has been in business since 1999. They also offer other great Child Safety Products such as ID Bracelets, Shoe Labels, DNA/Fingerprint Kits, Allergy Stickers just to name a few. In addition to safety products, they offer a wide variety of other baby/child products including Slings, Baby Shoe Bronzing, Patty Cakes (handprint and footprint keepsakes), and Keepsake Boxes.

Guest review by T.O.P. reader Kelly.

The airplane ride seems to be the bane of almost every parent’s existence. I’ve seen countless posts on parenting forums pleading for advice on what to bring and how to manage an airplane trip with young children. I have flown with my son six times since he was born, including four trips from the United Kingdom to the United States (varying from ten to twelve hours on a plane at a time). I have tried every combination of things and this product from A Toy Garden was my best discovery. The “On The Go Bag” fits an astounding number of toys in an amazingly small bag that fits quite easily into a purse or diaper bag. The toys amuse a variety of age ranges, recommended 2-8, but with my own 30 year-old self loving the Architect Blocks I’d say it should be left open ended. The bags include: “A set of wood Architect Blocks, a wooden Jacob’s ladder, a mini deck of cards, a mini set of crayons (you’ll find these in my purse at all times!), a super bouncy rubber ball, a collapsible drinking cup in fun shapes, a mini key chain level and mini keychain metal tape measure (for hours of entertainment), a mini set of soft clay in 5 colors, and a sheet of temporary butterfly tatoos. ” The big hits for us were the Jacob’s ladder… which has been played with for the past year and has held up quite well, the keychain tape measure… again played with for the past year and the blocks.

Because I loved the bag so much, I ordered another to have on hand for any new trip (the toys having migrated to various parts of the house since our first trip) and kept it in a closet. One day, our neighbors had a death in the family and had to leave immediately with their three young children for a seven hour car ride. I ran back to my house and grabbed the bag to hand off to the mom as she was pulling out of the driveway. When she got back she couldn’t stop talking about how much of a stress-reliever it was for her. With the tragedy on her mind and a car full of kids she was anticipating the trip to be terrible. Instead, every hour she would pass around another toy. It kept the children occupied and content, allowing her to concentrate on driving.

A Toy Garden is run by a WAHM, my preference for buying on the net. They give great customer service and are a pleasure to shop with.

Kelly is a WOHM from Bellevue, Nebraska. Her husband is SAHD who spends his days chasing their three year old and eleven month old boys, while rebuilding their recently acquired ‘65 VW Bus.

Thanks so much for sharing this great product with us, Kelly!

A friend of mine who had her daughter just a few weeks before my son was born was often distraught when trying to find the things she really wanted for her baby in local stores. She’s from Germany where toys aren’t coated in lead and toys aren’t generally plastic and loud, and shopping in Canada was extremely disappointing. She often came back with almost a plane-load from her visits home to Germany of things she couldn’t get here, most of them organic, natural and/or o extremely intelligent design.

I clearly remember her describing a stroller insert that “everyone in Europe” uses when they walk their babies for the entire few hours of nap time at all times of year. When I opened the box of the EuroTote from Lillebaby I found myself wishing she was having more babies because I had finally found it for her!

The EuroTote is a fabulous new product that is really five products in one. It’s a moses-style carrier, a car seat cover, a warm stroller bag, a play blanket and a bunting bag. You might even be able to think of more. There are so many great features that it’s going to be a challenge to remember them all but I’ll sure try!

-It’s non-toxic and machine washable, both a must for anything that’s going near your child.
-It’s one size fits all from newborn to 3 years and comes with two interchangeable covers, a warm one for winter and a mesh one for summer, and the zippers are two way for ease of use.
-The board that keeps baby secure when using the EuroTote as a moses carrier is removable for comfort in the other applications.
-It comes in four great colour combos.
-In case you’re paranoid like me, it has been crash tested and shown not to interfere with car seats.
-Safety straps, both 3 and 5 point, secure directly over the child so there’s no fear of over-cushioning the straps.
-It adjusts in length so that it always fits your child comfortably.
-The lining is 100% cotton and is SO soft and cozy.
-It has a 180° buckle system which makes it very secure for even the tiniest of babes.

We tested out the EuroTote with a 2 month old (as a moses carrier), an 8 month old (as a play blanket and a carseat cover) and a 17 month old (as a stroller bag). In all cases the EuroTote was very easy to use, despite our initial apprehension. The children all seemed very comfortable in it and in the case of the stroller bag it was absolutely wonderful to know that the little guy was snuggly and warm and that there was no risk of a blanket blowing off him on the very cool fall day that we did our testing.

The Lillebaby EuroTote retails for $120 USD. Click here for a list of retailers.

My Precious Kid has some awesome baby gear and family safety products. We’ve been reviewing their Table Toppers To Go, a tool for parents who like to…leave the house! If you’re like me, no matter how well you plan in order to be home for the next meal something often throws a wrench in the plans and you end up having to eat out.

Table Toppers are disposable and easily portable kids dining sets that sell for only $6 for a 4-pack! Each pack is enclosed in a hygienically sealed sippy cup (brilliant, I must say) and contains a disposable stick-in-place placemat that won’t be thrown to the floor, a disposable bib and a disposable baby-safe fork and spoon. There’s so much I love about the Table Topper, and convenience is at the top of the list. A set fits easily in my diaper bag so I’ve always got one handy and, other than the food, it contains everything I need. The placemat really (like, really) sticks to the table but comes off without too much adult effort at the end of the meal. The cup seals really well and we’ve yet to have a spill. Our waitresses have been a lot friendlier lately! (For the mom of many kids who has everything, these would make an awesome addition to a shower gift basket!)

Check out the many other great goodies from My Precious Kid, like dog tags, first aid products, wearable ID and more!

Contest closes Friday night at midnight MST. Congratulations Krissie!

I have a strange fascination with germs and the studies that show their concentration in various areas. Almost all of them show germs from fecal matter in the strangest of places. One of the grossest to the mind of a paranoid mom? The shopping cart. When I see people place their babies & toddlers directly in their carts I feel an overwhelming temptation to have a conversation with them that goes something like this:

Me: Would you let your baby lick that man’s butt? (pointing to a random stranger)
Her: No, of course not!
Me: You might as well be doing that when you let him touch the handle on that cart because you know he’s going to put his hands in his mouth. You need to use a Clean Shopper.

Instead, I usually just cringe and am thankful that I have one and am aware enough to keep the majority of strange fecal matter away from my kid. I keep my Clean Shopper in my vehicle at all times, which is a good thing most of the time. Except when it has food and other random kid stuff spilled all over it and I forget to take it in the house and wash it. Or I take it in and forget to take it back out. For those times, I was SO excited to discover the disposable Clean Shopper. At only $9.99 for a 3 pack, they’re the perfect solution for forgetful people like myself. They work just the same as the original one, but are made of waterproof polypropylene. I’m not usually an advocate of disposable products but this is one that I’ll always be keeping around because the alternative is just too nasty.

To the germophobe’s delight, Babe Ease also makes a similar product for public high chairs called the Clean Diner and disposable version of that too!

And people? WASH YOUR HANDS!

We’ve got a selection of Babe Ease products to give away, including a Clean Shopper, Clean Diner, Clean Changer & bib. To enter, email theopinionatedparent@gmail.com with Clean Shopper in the subject line and tell us what the newest Babe Ease product is. Contest closes at midnight MST on June 6/07.

Planning some summer travel?

Whether long or short, car trips can be the bane of your existence (“When will we geeeet theeeere?”) or, if you plan right, they can be the making of some great memories.

The Four Peas Mini Sports Fan Activity Pack from Mom4Life is a great addition to your vehicle.

Intended for children aged three and up, this way cool activity pack comes in a cool plastic case with easy to use sliders and a convenient handle for carrying. The kit includes a pad of coloured paper, an activity pad, silly putty, crayons, make-a-race car sticker sheet, assorted stickers, a mini porcupine ball, a pull back race car, a notepad, a squishy frog, and magic springs. Enough to keep even the most hard-to-entertain kid busy for a few hours. (The “Girly Girl” kit is similar but includes different ‘girly’ stickers, a bracelet, a stamper & linking shapes instead of the stereotypical boy-ish goods.)

Once your child has used all of the goodies that came with it, the case is perfect to refill with toys and other activities to keep your car stocked and ready for the next trip. Great for the car, in restaurants, while waiting for appointments and anywhere else you need a little kiddie entertainment. It’s also perfect for taking into Aunt Myrtle’s house so she doesn’t make the kids count Q-tips for ‘fun.’

Twenty dollars for some sanity in a tidy little box. Count me in.

Get 10% off any Four Peas activity pack order at Mom4Life. Enter “Opinionated Parent 10% off” in the customer comments area during checkout and your discount will be refunded when the order is processed.
