If you have a toddler, what kind of bag do you use?

[RedRobyn2021]

My DD is 2.5 and potty trained now, but I'm still towing around the changing bag we've had since she was born.

What do you use?

I'm a SAHM so my life is toddler groups, stay & play, park, shops

I need room for snacks and a change of clothes for her.

Would be nice if it was a little stylish...

I never used a traditional changing bag but had a standard rucksack from a sports shop. Used it for years.

I use a fake leather backpack from Accessorize. It’s held up really well considering the battering it’s had over the years. I like to think it looks marginally stylish, but then I’m not a stylish person, so I’ve probably my got it all wrong. I also have a cross body bag so I can easily access things like bank card, phone, keys etc.

Accessorize do nice backpacks that aren't necessarily massive but still big enough for the items you describe and look stylish. I got a fake leather one for £38 and I feel I look stylish, still a mum, but less of the baby change!

@Apricotton wow! Think me and you were typing that at the same time ☺️

I don't have a special bag. I've a small across body handbag and just pop a nappy in it, a little box of raisins and an oat bar or something. He's 18 months. I have a compact nappy mat that folds down really small. He drinks out of a cup, so will drink a bit of mine wherever we go

And I think we bought the same bag!

I have a horrible backpack that goes everywhere. Big enough for change of clothes, nappies, wipes, snacks, waterproofs, spares shoes etc etc. Dc loves getting cold/wet/muddy. Can't deny I'm looking forward to getting rid of it.

My rucksack is a babymel one. It just looks like a smart rucksack though. Fits lots - changes of clothes, wellies, water, snacks, lunch if needed, small football.
Daughter is 3 and has refused pushchair since 2 so I've had to carry everything.

I got a lovely cath kidston ruck sack off Vinted for a fiver!

I have an Aspinal essential brown leather tote which I used as soon as my daughter was potty trained. Big enough for all my stuff, her water bottle, snack and cardigan/coat. I hate backpacks so I only ever did handbags. I still use it even now she is at school.

I wear like a bum bag thing across my body, don't know what they are called but loads in asos for my phone and keys.

Then I just use a good quality tote to hang off the pram for all my son's stuff. It's the easiest for me and I don't care if it gets dirty or anything
