If you are traveling by airplane this holiday season with your child, then you definitely need this! When I first saw the Airplane Seat Back Valet from Hammacher Schlemmer (via Wired’s Gadget Lab), the first thing I thought of was: “This is so perfect for kids on airplanes!”
The tote simply attaches to the back of an airline seat by sliding over the tray table. The bag keeps all of your child’s goodies organized with the different pockets, some mesh and some zippered. The large pockets are great for books, coloring pages or holding their hand-held video games. The zippered pockets are perfect to secure game cartridges, crayons, or pencils. All of the other pockets can hold an iPod, snacks, extra tissues or wipes, or whatever it is that will keep your child entertained for the flight. The Airplane Seat Back Valet even includes a spot to hold their water bottle!
The best part is that the organizer, when not in use, folds in half and becomes a convenient bag that you can tote with the included shoulder strap or handles. Perfect for when you are chasing your little one around the terminal!
Although I haven’t seen the bag in person it does sound like a great solution when traveling with a child of any age! The bag itself measures 11.75″ x 8″ when closed and costs $39.95 at www.hammacher.com — definitely an affordable price for a (hopefully) peaceful trip!
