survival bag for parents with 3 year olds

Anonymous Author (August 2007)

Hi

this is just a short advice!!

Whe taking my 3 yr old to appointments or anything where she would get bored I used to go unprepared and she would run wild driving me nearly to tears but recently I made a "survival bag"

The

survival bag is something u can keep in the boot of your car and keep it for these occaision, I use a small backpack and fill with things like;

  • sticker books
  • pencils
  • small notepad / colouring book
  • small toy (cars or dolls)
  • facewasher or small container or babywipes
  • change of clothes

all this probably seems quiet obvious but after your baby isnt a baby anymore the need for a baby bag deminishes and we tend to leave the house in a hurry alot more  so by having this little bag stocked and already in the car ready to go meeting or appointments wont be so boring for your little one.

I also found only using this bag when really needed helps other wise they grow bored of it really quickly!

Hope this helps.
