I love motherhood with a passion and am passionate about providing a place here at MamaKnowsBest where mothers can learn, grow, and share ... pooling the wisdom of many into one big jackpot for mothers.

Going places can be a challenge when you are alone and have two or more small children with you. Just getting everyone in and out of the car is such a job! The other problem is that when you are doing this in a parking lot, it can also be a safety hazard. What if one child wanders a few feet from the car while you are getting the baby out of his carseat or making sure you have your bag and locking up the car? Unfortunately many do not drive by as slowly as they should in parking lots, .
When I had my fourth child, my intelligent husband came up with a plan. He trained the children to get out of their carseats, go out the car door and immediately stand with their backs against the back of the car. This gave us, or me when I was out alone with the children, time to get the baby out, make sure I had everything I needed from the car, and lock up without worrying about the children wandering into the danger zone. It has been a lifesaver! They exit the vehicle and stay right against the car until I am ready to go and instruct them to come along.
I highly recommend it!

I loved the article on Safey Training in Parking Lots. While I only have 1 right now, this is definitely GOOD information to have for the future!
