For a couple of years, I've wanted to send my idea into Family Fun magazine for their My Great Idea section. Today I did it. I emailed a picture of the "aprons" I made for the girls that we use when we travel. I just used plain canvas aprons and sewed various sized pockets on them for the girls to put their "stuff" in. Then we tie them to the backs of the car seats. I personalized them with Katie's Keeper and Molly's Mailbox. If they use your idea, you get $100. Hey, its worth a shot, right?

That sounds like a really cute idea Wendy! We have something like that for the back of the car seat, but I really don't like it. I may try that with the kids... I think it would work better for us :o)

Wendy, why you little sneaky crafty person in disguise! lol


What a GREAT idea! I am going to have the boys make some as a craft project. I will take a pic when I do and let you know how it turned out.


I bet they will use your idea!!!

Wow, Wendy!! I'm impressed! Great idea. So you're one of those creative crafty people that I so admire? I hope they use your idea. It sounds wonderful to me. We're going on a looooooooooooooong road trip a week from Saturday. Maybe I'll make them for my kids! Where did you get the canvas aprons?
