Gearhead Mom

I am a toy gearhead. I am a mom. Therefore, I am Gearhead Mom. I review the good, the bad and the (often) ugly in the world of baby and childhood gear.

Shake It!

Posted by Missy W. @ 12:21 PM

Now that Baby G is a full-fledged walker (Watch out lamps!), he has his hands free for all the multi-tasking a newly minted ambulator can handle. His all-time favorite clutchables are his sister’s rain boots (nice little hooks to hold on to), but since jams all kinds of treasures inside, they are a bit heavy to carry around. I was about to recycle a liter-sized water bottle the other day and decided to channel my preschool days and made him a nice new shaker instead. I dried it out, threw some uncooked beans in, put the lid on, taped it over with some very strong, clear packing tape and that was that. Now he wobbles, shakes and rattles his way through the living room at an alarming speed. One year olds are awfully cute.
