Takin' the adventurous toddlers for a walk?

Does anyone have a recomendation for a good harness? I would like to be able to be alone in a mall or other crowded setting and not have to have the boys always in a stroller. They are not in need of it yet but all signs point to running very soon

 

I've never used one, but there are cute ones at Target. I think they are Eddie Bauer brand and look like backpacks (with a little bear or monkey on it I think).

 

I never used one yet either, but I have seen the ones Leighann mentioned at Target and BRU. Good luck!

 

We got ours at walmart. They are dogs I think? But they work pretty good. I recomend you don't go to far away from your car if your not taking a stroller or you may end up carrying to toddlers! :lol:

 

We bought the teddy bear ones from Target and used them a couple of times. I have one child who HATED it, stopped in the middle of the floor and cried, so we stopped using it after that.

I will sell you mine if you're interested. They are in like new condition.

 

I bought those harnesses that one looks like a bear backpack and the other looks like a monkey backpack.I bought them at walmart. I have used them once. My girls were like hyper poodles on leashes - they were all tangled up and it was crazy! and then they refused to walk! they wanted to lay on the floor and thought it was hysterical if I pulled up on the leash - so I ended up carrying both babies from one end of the mall to the other.kicking and screaming because they wanted to "walk". But each time I tried to put them down they did the lay on the floor thing. The first few times you use the harnesses I would not venture too far from the car! get farther and farther each time!! I need to try them again!

:rotflmbo:

OMG this is going to be me! I almost peed I was laughing so hard!

 

All of the above have me rethinking the harness thing...it sounds like you all are doing better without.

That's what we use. I got it at Target and it's Eddie Bauer and they are teddy bears. My girls :wub: them and are incredibly cute with the bears on their backs.
*WARNING* You don't notice how slow toddlers walk and how easily they are distracted until you use those things. I have put mine in the toy box for the time being b/c they don't walk by my side with the harnesss on.
