This Full House Favorite Find: Parking Pal - A Hands On Partner for Your Child's Safety

As you may have already guessed, raising 4 kids and taking care of parents with all sorts of health issues and physical disabilities, our family spends a whole LOT of time together - especially, in our car - unfortunately, I know what's it like having to drive around a parking lot and feeling a bit overwhelmed, or slight distracted.

There were times when getting in and out of the car was a feat and - especially, when dealing with strollers - I even considered duct taping the kids to the side of my car, because parking lots are dangerous and they just don't listen!

But, perhaps now, you'll be glad to learn that you don't have to - consider using duct tape on YOUR kids, I mean.

A mother in Virginia began to think of ways to keep her kids focused so the chance of them bolting or wondering in parking lots would be eliminated. She created the Parking Pal and here's how it works:

 

• Place the Parking Pal on the side of your vehicle, where it will remain safely attached at all times.
• It was specifically designed with bright colors, playful illustrations, and a small palm children love to place their hands on.
• After a couple learning sessions, your child will discover that the Parking Pal is their safe spot, and they will know where to go the second they are outside the car.
• It also helps teach them that parking lots are no place to play.

In my opinion, Parking Pal would make a great gift for new parents and/or grandparents and helps spread awareness of the dangers of parking lots.

Let's face it - if you're a parent, then you know - we could ALL use a little help, yes?
