Now that my baby has moved up from an infant car seat to a convertible model, I’m sorely missing the shopping cart cover that I had last time around and seem to have loaned out to a friend. Although I have several relatively easy to use baby carriers, if I’m just running into the store for a quick trip it is so much easier to be able to safely put her in the cart without worrying about germs.

I have been admiring this great cover from Ritzy Sitzy. I love their creamsicle print which is pleasing to the eye and also looks very soft and comfy. It is completely machine washable, so you can destroy any germs it picks up when you are out and about. If I can’t track down my old cover, I may have to purchase this one! It retails for $68 and can be purchased at TheFrogAndThePrincess.com.

Have you noticed the local markets are providing sanitized towels for wiping down their carts before you place yours hands around the handles? It’s a great idea and an even better one is protecting your child from those same germs before placing them in the cart.

I like this two in one shopping cart cover because it promotes health and safety in an easy and convenient manner. Some of it’s features include extra padding, rear-security buckle, loops for small toys or teethers and a zippered pouch.

This shopping cart cover is one-size-fits-all, so it’s perfect for most shopping carts and even restaurant high chairs. Order yours at Right Start Web site, rightstart.com, for $42.99.
