Yet More Handy Tricks: Volume 5

Step 14"Monkey on my Back" Baby Leash

\"Monkey on my Back\" Baby Leash
Heather and Hayden are in the Phoenix airport waiting for their flight.
Hayden's wearing a harness and leash. The harness has a built-in backpack that looks like a monkey riding on his back. The leash is the monkey's tail.

"He's a runner.", says Heather.

I have vague recollections of my mom taking me out on a leash. I thought it was great. I could do whatever I wanted, and didn't have to constantly respond to some adult telling me what to do. Plus I could run around and pull on the leash, or try to swing on it, etc.

Children should be kept in sealed rain barrels until they are 18 at which point unbunged and if nothing good is heard dropped into the sea!

A better idea would be to not treat your child like a dog.

We used one of these for my 2 year old son in the airport. We got a few dirty looks from people to ignorant to understand how great a "leash" is. My son could run and play in total safety without bothering other people.
