My stoller just doesn't have enough easy access storage for my DL trips. I am looking for something that can hang on the handle and easily be removed (perhaps w/ velcro) when we park the stroller.

It would be ideal if it had a carry strap to go on my stroller or was a backpack.

Then I can put my cell, wallet and keys in it instead of wearing a purse or hanging my purse awkwardly on the handle bar. if it has room for more things like a water bottle, small kids stuff, even better.

I know there are things like this out there, but I wonder what you use that you really like. Thanks!

Have you checked the EagleCreek Parent Survival Pack? It has a shoulder strap that can hang from your stroller. AdrienneK sold me on it. ;) Be careful you don't pack your bag so heavy that it makes your stroller tip over if a child isn't in it...that's the only problem we've had with it.

That's a very nice one, but out of my price range.

Anyone else? When I was at DL yesterday, there were so many families draping tons of bags on their strollers that you could barely see the poor child. There has got to be a better way!

look at the red one it has better pics...

I personally think the smaller one is nicer. But The second one is bigger and depending on your needs you might like that one better. IMHO people bring WAY to much stuff to DL...All you really need is a backpack with the essentials...have backup stuff in your car or hotel room, that is what we always do and so far have never had to leave the park to retrieve any of it.

Instead of a backpack, how about a messenger bag you wear across your body? That wouldn't bang on the handle bar and it could hold your essentials.

This one is well worth the $$$$

Carabiners (http://www.keyosk.co.uk/images-products/pr-key-accessories-key-clips-carabiner-clip-a61-1.jpg) are my friends. I cable tie a few to the top of my stroller handle. If I'm carrying a smaller bag like a fanny pack, I can clip it to the carabiner. I also use them to hold shopping bags (but don't ever leave a shopping bag on an unattended stroller!)

I think carabiners make it very easy to slip things on and off of a stroller. Beware the edges of the cable ties - I've scratched myself a few times. I try to keep them aimed down and on the opposite edge of the handle.

I have a Skip Hop duo and LOVE it!
Fleurville also sells bags that attach to the stroller, but they are a bit pricey.
