I love hacks to make my life as Stroller Dad a
little easier. I'll share the other tried-and-trues, but today I'm sharing the
brainstorm I had last Friday.
Problem: I hate dropping off and picking up laundry
with my daughter in tow. It used to be a breeze. She'd ride in the Ergo and I'd
load the 20-30 lb. laundry on my Bugaboo Chameleon. It worked pretty well, but
the laundry was still somewhat hard to balance.
Recently we picked up a "wheeled board"
stand-up attachment for our stroller. I thought my daughter could ride on the
board while the laundry rode in the seat like in the old Ergo days. It worked
fairly well, until she lost interest in the "Fun Board."
I thought, what if she rode in the seat and the
laundry rode on the Fun Board?
Solution: I went through our luggage and grabbed a
duffle bag strap—a nylon strap with two plastic clips on each end, the same
thing used on a laptop bag. You probably have a couple laying around your
place. I clipped it to the shoulder straps (that my daughter doesn't wear
anymore anyway, just belt strap for this one) and slung it around the bag of
laundry. Some easy adjusting, and BOOM!
I give you the LAUNDRY TRUNK.
Safe, secure, steers like a dream.
If you don't have a Bugaboo, I bet this would still work. Let me know.
