And why is Lil Sis so pleased? Because she can now climb into her car seat with the minimum of fuss and effort, thanks to a nifty invention called My Car Step.
In a nutshell, it’s a plastic step that can be secured under your child’s car seat, creating a ladder for little ones to climb up on, just like this:
Simple right? The best ideas usually are!
My Car Step was designed with younger children in mind, but I still found it a huge help with Lil Sis, who’s turning three this summer. We’ve got a two-door car, so getting in and out is a serious faff, but with the step Lil Sis can easily get up into her seat without me needing to lift her up to hurry things along (and cricking my back in the process!).
She loves being more independent, and I love the fact it saves time and hassle; especially in the mornings when we’re rushing to get Big Sis to school.
What I also liked about My Car Step was that it was designed by UK mum, Sally Marlow. She invented the step for her 18-month-old daughter, then realised that other Mums and Dads could benefit from it too. You can read about it HERE.
Anything that makes life a little easier gets a BIG thumbs up from me!
