Now Louis is getting older, I have to struggle to get him to go into his pram as he now wants to walk everywhere.

I have the standard reins and a wrist strap and most of the time I'm allowed to put them on and he'll keep them on without bother.

But I've seen these Click here and here they are both the same price around about £11 ish, so are quite a bit more expensive than standard reins.

Has anyone got one and are they any good?

Just thought I ask before I bought one.  The little life also do a ladybird and a turtle backpack which are cute too.

My friend at baby club has one of the sacks with the reins attached and they are a great idea.  He loves weraing his rucksack and doesnt notice that his mum has hold of reins too.  She said its a great invention and well worth the money.  She has got a ickle pink one for her neice so when they go on their walking holidays they can all have there own bags xxx

Might have to look into these, as dd loves bags (and shoes) and is always running off.

Nicki has recommended them highly to me...Lewis loves his backpack apparently so yeah..i might get one for meg and liam too, saves me carrying a huge bag full of baby goodies, they can carry their own lol! Obviously within reason! Standard reins were no good for meg, even on the smallest setting she still managed to squirm out of them and if she got stuck she'd just hit the deck and roll around screaming all the while im stood there with the reins in my hand cringing!

They look really good. I have the same problem with Ella and the only way I've found to take her mind off the reigns is to take her dolly and pushchair with us - so she pushes the dolls pushchair and this distracts her - well mostly!

LOL- Dizie, I used to do that with Harrison but I got lots of funny looks when people saw a boy pushing a pink pram to the shops!

That annoyed me as its all part of growing up. DF wont let me buy Louis a pram rofl.

I think I'm going to get the little life one, Now do I buy the turtle one?

Yeah, we have a Lindam Toddler Runner for Lewis which is the backpack reins that you are talking about.  They are fabby!!  Lewis loves it and in the backpack there is room for a couple of nappies, bags and wipes and if you're lucky you can maybe also get a drink in there too!!  Gives your toddler a feeling of freedom and also helps with their walking.  I thoroughly recommend this product, so if you're looking - go for it!!!
