Hold it Baby! It's Sanity on a String.

Saturday, November 14, 2009 Posted by Felicia



I'll be the first to admit--we live by the 5-second rule in our household (and, in most cases, it is more like the 55-second rule!). We are constantly on the go, be it in a jogging stroller, the car, or a shopping cart, Catherine and her toys and food gets carted everywhere. More often than not, I'll spend a large portion of time stooping to pick up a dropped toy or food/drink container.

That all changed in an instant when I received the On-the-Go Toy Organizer from Hold it Baby.

At first, I thought this organizer would be a nice supplement to my routine. After using it for the past week, though, I've realized it is an irreplaceable part of my daily life!

Gone are the days when I'd constantly worry if something was going to fall out of the jogger as I ran through the streets of Atlanta. Gone are the moments of questioning whether or not that sippy cup had been on the floor too long. Gone are the scary situations in the car where I'd be driving while simultaneously searching for a discarded toy in the back seat (DON'T try that while driving!).

With the Hold it Baby On-the-Go Toy Organizer I know that Catherine's toys will stay in the jogger, her sippy cup won't fall on the floor while we are eating and her toys will stay within HER reach in the carseat.

The best moment while using this toy organizer came when my lovely 15-month old daughter attempted to throw a toy out of her jogger in a sudden fit of frustration. I could only laugh, knowing that, despite her best efforts, that toy wasn't going to land on the ground as we ran past it! Thank you On-the-Go Toy Organizer for even stopping a tantrum!

Review:

The On-the-Go Toy Organizer is a series of lanyards, loops and clips that help keep your child's toys, food cups, and sippies attached and tethered to something stable (like your car seat, stroller, or high chair).


It can hold up to 6 items at once like:
  • books
  • sippy cups
  • food cups
  • utensils
  • stuffed animals
  • snack bags
It is also non-toxic, safety tested, and CPSIA compliant

Verdict:

I truly loved this "sanity saving" product! We used the Hold it Baby On-the-Go Toy Organizer for a week to get a really good feel for it and, by the end of the week, I would never go back to not using it. Check out everything that we put on our organizer (we may have gone a little overboard but i wanted the most bang for my buck!):


One of my favorite features is that you can attach a book to the organizer and it will still be readable! For months i've tried to figure out how to get a book to stay in her stroller and this is the perfect solution!



Not quite convinced? Make sure you watch this fun youtube video:

    I learned that it can even hold stuffed animals (great!) and it can be washed easily. It should not be used in sleeping areas.

    The silicone bands can be stretched to accommodate many different sized objects but are not infinitely expandable. Some care is required to ensure that the ring is not stretched to the breaking point.

    I love that they chose not to use velcro. Everything for kids these days has velcro and it just doesn't work with my son.
