Brinkeetos play date and Sling Bag Review!

This past week I had the chance to get together with a friend and her son.  We have been friends for close to 25 years (which is pretty hard to believe) but we don't often get the chance to get together.  We are lucky, though, that our boys (Mr. K and her son Charlie) are only a few weeks apart in age.

This week, we were supposed to meet up at a local splash pad, but that ended up not working out, and we met at Brinkeetos instead.  When I go out with the boys to a park or play center, I don't like to bring my purse.  It doesn't have a zippered top, and I always worry about things falling out, or a child getting into it.

I recently received a Kids Sling Bag from Our Family World, and knew this would be a great time to test it out.

A look at thebag, the inside of the front pocket and the samples/coupons that came with it!
Our Family World has only recently launched their line of bags, all with the slogan "feels good to help". $2.00 from each sale goes to a foundation that helps children in need.  Each bag also comes with some type of sample (the ones included in my bag were samples of Iron Kids Gummies, and coupons for the same product as well!)

The Kids Sling Bag was the perfect size for all my necessities (but still small enough that Mr. J would be able to use it without issue) It held my wallet, snacks, change of clothes for Mr. K, a water bottle in the side mesh pocket and my keys in the front zippered pocket.  I was able to wear the bag while we were out without feeling like I was weighed down and without worry of it falling off (as a purse strap might)

We had a terrific time playing and visiting, Mr. K had his afternoon snack at the kids tables and enjoyed all the jumping into the ball pit, climbing the wall and running around in one of the slings they have.  I have definitely found my go-to bag for taking the kids out!

  5. I'm wondering if the straps go nice and big? I've been looking for a sling style bag for ages but I'm plus size and they are never big enough to accommodate me!

  6. I like the fact that sling bags have lots of room for whatever you need to put it in it - but, most especially the fact that the sling bag distributes the weight where its not weighing down your shoulder.
