Shortcut to Fabulous Unique Baby Shower Gift

July 15, 2010 by ShortcutsEditor  

floral_440x440The Umbrella stroller is the perfect portable stroller. It is what our parents used almost exclusively when we were growing up. However, new $1,000 dollar strollers have taken over the baby product world. While they have fancy engineering to make the wheels glide like the wind, have storage compartments fit for a king and weigh practically nothing, they are not designed to just pick up and go. So, eventually every $1,000 stroller owner realizes an umbrella stroller is a necessary accessory. Well, we found the perfect accessory to add to the umbrella stroller straight from Europe….the magic stroller bag!

A pint size social exclusive, the magic stroller bag is made of nylon with 2 extra large grommets making it super easy to put on & take off of your stroller. A must-have in France, it is now available here. Recently, a friend was adding a score of items to her baby registry and I was baulking at the sheer number of items she felt she “needed.” I said, “you don’t need all of that…just get whatever a European mom gets and call it a day!” Well, French mommies are scrambling for the magic stroller bag so we should too!

Click here to order.

So, go European and enjoy this shortcut to a fabulous gift for every mom with a baby or toddler you know.
