If you’ve ever walked your baby in the dark, you’re going to love Stroll-Lights. These clip-to-your-stroller lights make you and your stroller easy to see and be seen in the dark. Battery operated, these strings of lights come in a variety of eye catching colors. You can buy them in 3′ or 6′ lengths, and they can be combined to make longer lengths. The lights can be set to be either on continuously or to blink. And they’re not just for strollers. Put them on your backpack, in your tent, on a bike or on a boat. You can even decorate your Xmas trees with them! Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals loves these, and we know you will too. $22.65 CDN.

If you’re a mom that’s into funky jewelry, then Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals has found just the ring for you. Before you leave the house, pop on the writering by Diego Bisso, and you’ll never again have the one-handed challenge of rummaging through your diaper bag searching for a pen to take down that all important phone number while trying to balance a latte and your squirmy little one in the other. Interesting idea although you may need to have one sent from Spain.

This amazing safety restraint has been approved by most US and European airlines. It is now officially approved in Canada by Air Canada, Air Transat and, in the next few weeks, WestJet. In case you haven’t heard, this child safety restraint for airplanes attaches directly to the back of an airplane seat and augments the regular seat belt by restraining a child’s torso to the seat, rather than just their waist as per the regular seatbelt. It weighs only 1 lb and takes just a minute to install. What this means for you is that you no longer have to shelp your carseat through the airport just to keep your child safe on the plane. CARES are not sold in any retail stores in Canada, but you can buy them online from Wee Travel and they ship all across Canada. They sell for $85 and rent for $5/day or $25/ week.

If you are traveling with small children you are going to need a car seat. Now, do you bring your own or not? Many people opt to rent a car seat at their destination, however, if your destination doesn’t have a baby equipment rental company, or if you just want to bring your own, be sure to check out the gogo Kidz Car Seat Protector Bag. It’s made of a heavy woven fabric that will protect your seat so you can safely send it cargo. Sounds like a no-brainer, right? Well, believe it or not, car seat protector bags are hard to come by in Canada. Wee Travel sells them for $50. If you live in Vancouver, Toronto or Victoria, you can even rent one from them for $3/day.

Australia seems to be the land of great inventions, especially for babies. The Willi Lilli Buddy is another one of those fantastic must-haves for traveling parents (at least Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals thinks so). It’s a portable highchair, elevated floor pad (really a simplified bouncy chair), changing pad and shopping buggy seat all in one. It comes in a carry case with an inflatable booster cushion and includes a 5-point harness. Be sure to check this out, because this bud’s going to become your new best friend…but you’ll have to get it from Australia!

Now here is something that Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals thinks every traveling parent should have. It looks like a UFO, so your kids will love it. But the Loopa Gyro is actually a revolutionary bowl that keeps the snacks in the bowl and off the floor no matter how your child grabs, turns, swivels, dips and spins it. That means no more dealing with tears or hungry tummies when you’re on the go and the snack bag mistakenly gets dumped upside down on the car floor or pavement! Sells online for $9.99.

Now this is amazing. At least we at Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals think so. MomSpit is a no-rinse cleanser which lets you clean your little one anytime, no matter where you are - no water or sink needed. It works like magic and smells amazing. Just rub a little onto hands or face. Dirt will disappear. No rinse needed. Its antimicrobial properties leave skin clean, fresh, moisturized and smelling yummy. It comes in great scents: Fig and Green Tea; Lemon and White Tea, and there’s unscented, too. It contains no alcohol, mousses brilliantly, absorbs quickly and feels great. How can you NOT have this in your diaper bag?
