Hi sling wearers

My dd is 5 and is very keen to own a sling for her teddy/dolly

I carried both dd and ds in a wilkinet/huggababy until they were too heavy so I am a fan but am struggling with finding a supplier of a fab sling for dd!

It needs to be adjustable and prefably in fab funky colours and no more than £10!

I know I could make one but tbh Id rather part with £10 - I have other projects on the go!!!

Thanks all in advance

Hmm I have now found this
which is for bigger kids (ie I have also found a corrie sling for younger kids)

But it isnt adjustable - dd wants one so she can take her friends on walks, I think her teddies will fall out of that one in the link above - I love the fabric though!

this one little bit over £10 but nice.

I've got a couple of coorie pouch slings, one fleecy and one cotton. They were from Brightspark slings, but 5 years ago, not sure they're still selling them. I am intending to sell / givem them away at some point, but not quite sure where they are

Pouch slings are very easy to make yourself though

ooh cross posts!

yes, it's not the most practical of teddy slings for longer walks.

Have you thought about a wrap sling? that would be easy to make yourself too....

LauraIngallsWilder · 11/12/2009 23:32

just found this which is perfect but apparently no longer available!
If it was/is that is mu current favourite

The storchenwiege looks good too - though Im sure dd will struggle with it (I had one and hated it!)

Becky - The corrie slings look lovely, I can imagine dd getting fed up with teddy!
We go on mega walks Otherwise I would be begging you for yours

I think ergo do one... not sure of price:

ergobaby.com/doll-carriers

$25, whatever that is. have fun!

A quick and dirty solution, that might not impress a 5 yr old (but worked with toddler DS) was just to take an old scarf that I had lying around and fudge a wrap sling with it. It wasn't even a proper tie as teddy wasn't v heavy and unlikely to suffer if he fell out.

How about one of these: Moby Wrap Doll Baby Carrier? a little over £10 but super cute!
