Great reminders for me that I can still wrap my 3yo! I tend to forget since I have a baby to wrap, also. We really wished we had a carrier for my 3yo when we were at the zoo last weekend–she could have seen a lot more, we wouldn’t have been so nervous she would get lost, and it would have avoided a meltdown at the end of the trip.
Deborah, you just combined about half my list into one trip! Oh well, next time!
