Gripsterz Review and Giveaway

A Winner Has been Chosen and Notified. Congrats Emmi!  This giveaway is now closed.

I have to tell you that I liked the idea of the Gripsterz when I saw the box...but would Savvy actually allow herself to be "tied" to me at the grocery store?  I mean she doesn't even want to be tied in the shopping cart unless she gets the one that is a car shopping cart...I hold my breath as we pull into the grocery store each time!

I thought I would use the Gripsterz for the first time at the grocery store and loved the idea of having it in my bag for the airport but I had no idea how overly obsessed she would be about her {monkey bracelet}...that is what she calls it.  This picture is of her outside our house wearing the Gripsterz because she insisted on going for a walk with it ... yeah...I am sure the neighbors didn't think that was odd?! LOL ... they will find it odder if they peep in the windows and find her asking Mami to put her {bracelet on}... you see Savvy loves the idea of Mami and her having matching bracelets while she gets to hold onto the monkey!

The Gripsterz comes with a little book so a child can see why and where they should wear it...Savvy loves books and one with a monkey in it...the better ... so she took what the monkey said to heart!  Thing is I am totally okay with it!  I am actually delighted with it because I have to take Savvy to Philadelphia at the end of the summer for to see her transplant medical team...it is a routine visit but there is nothing routine about flying alone with a child.  The older she gets the harder it is to keep her in a carseat while we wait for the plane .... the Gripsterz is the perfect solution for us!

How much? $14.99 ... this is a great price to pay for peace of mind!
