Blog Giveaway : 2 Parking Pal
GIVEAWAY CLOSED!
I have said again and again that inventions by parents are bound to be great products as 99% of the time, they work like a charm! Check out Parking Pal, the brainchild of mommy Denise Whitney, who was absolutely awesome about sending samples for me to review.
How Parking Pal Came About:
One mother residing in Virginia began to think of ways to keep her kids focused so the chance of them bolting or wondering in parking lots would be eliminated. She created the Parking Pal and IT WORKED. Austin, her 5-year old, and Aiden, her 3-year old, love the Parking Pal. When getting out of or coming back to the vehicle they go directly to it, put their hand on it, fiddle around with it and chat with each other while she gets her youngest into his stroller or back into his car seat. Until all vehicles are equipped with back-up cameras and all until all drivers remember to pay careful attention in parking lots, this is a great aid in keeping your child safer.
Those who have been following my parenting blog would know that both my kids are hyperactive. So, it is difficult to manage them if I need to go shopping with both of them tagging along. I put Parking Pal to the test when we went grocery shopping last week. Of course, I had towed the hubby along just in case. After grocery shopping, I put the two Parking Pals at the rear 
side of our car and told the kids to put their hands on them and play a game where the first person to take his/her hand away will be the loser. While the hubby and I were putting the bags of groceries into the car, we were also secretly watching out for them. To my surprise, my two kids were happily chatting away with each hand stuck on the Parking Pal and did not for one second move away from the car. WOW! We were both amazed. Parking Pal gave us about 5 minutes of freedom to load the things into the car without the need to run after bolting kids.

please enter me. Sadly someone stole ours off our car. I really used this daily with my 5 year old, and it is one amazing invention. I’d choose the flower.

These are all great designs. I will choose the AlphaPal because all kids can relate to that; However if I was buying for specific children to use, I would let them pick the design or pick one that I know is something they like.

I would get the flower one to dress up my car while serving a purpose (to keep my sanity). Thanks!!
