Kids Seattle - September 29, 2008

Fair Weather Friend

Sammy Sack Stroller Blankets

A chance of showers never got a Northwest kid down. But it has gotten several soaking wet.

Greet our most prolonged season armed with a water-resistant Sammy Sack, created by local mom Theresa Okell after one soggy slog too many.

The stroller blankets pair high-density nylon outer shells with cozy fleece linings and a foot pocket that keeps your little kicker’s toes warm but free to wiggle.

They clip to strollers of all kinds and come in color combos that range from silver on pink leopard to black on black.

So go outside and play. And don’t let the forecast rain on your parade.
