Moms with Toddlers

I am on a hunt for a new purse. Wondering what bags moms with toddlers have. My son is 3.5 so I have no need to tote baby items or changes of clothes, but I am always in need of space to hold small toys, Hot Wheels cars, and snacks. I also have baby wipes too for my son. As far as my everyday items, I have a wallet, 2 glasses cases, my phone, and here and there a few other things. I just find myself always digging through my purse and can never find what I need. Thanks!

I use my regular bags I've had since before she was born. I throw a cup, a fork/spoon, snack and boogie wipes in. I tend to like moderately large bags so I honestly wouldn't even take her stuff into consideration when buying a bag.

I prefer crossbody bags so I can be hands-free, and I like them to be made if a lightweight material too, like fabric or nylon, instead of heavy leather or canvas. Vera Bradley makes bags that fit my needs with 2 young kids. The Triple-Zip crossbody bag is actually great bc it's crossbody, light, and has plenty of room and organization without being too huge.

Re: Moms with Toddlers

I do one of two things. I love the lesportsac crossbody bags. They are so light and fit A TON when needed.

Or, I use my tiny coach crossbody just for my stuff and I use a small cloth backpack for dds sippy cup, diaper, wipes, ans bib, and I really just take it out of the car if I have the stroller to hang it off of or going into a restaurant where there’s a chair to put it on.

This is what I did. I just used my regular bags. They were always on the larger side so everything fit

I use my regular handbags, but depending on what we are doing I tend to prefer my larger bags with side compartments.

They don’t sell it anymore (and even if they did, I totally get that it’s on the pricier side than most people are looking to spend) but look up the LV Totally. If you’re interested in getting a useful multi purpose bag, I’d check out a style similar to that, which has a black hole in the middle and compartments on the side for easy to grab things. I find that layout so useful.

I too have always like bigger bags, even before DD was born. I've had my LV Neverfull GM for years so I usually use that. It really is never full lol.

I like using a small crossbody for my things and have a small backpack for DS's thing, which he carries.
