I don't like the idea of a leash but she is really good about listening to us when we tell her to put her hand on the car when we're in a parking lot unloading groceries. Maybe she will hold a string or something like that for us - like the strap of the backpack I'll be wearing... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318775 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 07:28:53 +0000 PinkElephant 2318775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If your LO is too old for a harness, maybe some kind of a tether (like a ribbon) s/he holds one end of? I know people in the city who do this with older children (they attach one end to the stroller and ask the kid to hold the other in busy places). It gives some freedom but encourages them to stay close. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318762 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 07:19:02 +0000 Mamaof2 2318762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@homestylecreations: yes a bright shirt!!</p> <p>We took the kids to sesame place this summer and we were at the water park - DS went off on his own and his shirt was fluorescent yellow - and that is the only way I could find him in a sea of kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318742 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 06:49:03 +0000 regberadaisy 2318742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's shoulder to shoulder we would probably carry her or go on daddy's shoulders. Being so small she'll get trampled otherwise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318690 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 00:30:56 +0000 808love 2318690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hold hands or carry. Sometimes I get nervous so I squeeze too tightly then she wants to let go so I tell her to hold my pinky and that usually works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318684 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 00:15:34 +0000 lamariniere 2318684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always hold hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318677 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 23:56:09 +0000 MrsRcCar 2318677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We Babywear.

When scanning a bunch of people it's hard to make out who is who so I usually try to put LO is something bright and DH in something that's easy to spot as well </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-track-of-lo-in-a-busy-place#post-2318610 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 22:22:11 +0000 Mrs Panda 2318610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old is LO?

It usually is so crowded that you're shoulder to shoulder with people. We haven't used the stroller in forever and don't plan on taking it. </p> <p>How do you keep track of your lo in crowded places? Holding hands, carrying her, what else? </p>
