Grandparents.com – Holiday 2010: The Best Gifts for Preschoolers
November 21, 2010 by Chief Wallabies · 1 Comment
We just found out that Grandparents.com has included the myWallaby Agile Doll Carrier in its Holiday 2010: The Best Gifts for Preschoolers list. We are very excited about this as we noticed that a lot of our bags have been purchased by grandparents looking for the perfect gift for their granddaughters. Some of my favorite customer interactions have been with grandparents — who are typically happy to find something that will complement their granddaughter’s interest in dolls. For many, it brings back memories of some of their most cherished childhood memories.
Price: $39.99
This doll carrier/play pocketbook is totally ingenious and totally adorable. Your granddaughter can strap in her favorite doll and head off to market.

Thanks the indie tot for including myWallaby in your 2010 Toy Guide!
The myWallaby Agile Doll Carrying Purse is a great item for little girls. Handmade from high-quality, machine washable materials, the convertible purse fits a variety of children’s dolls ranging 12″ to 18″ tall (including American Girl dolls). myWallaby transforms from a cute little purse to a doll carrier quickly and easily. A girl’s favorite doll (or teddy bear) can be carried, facing forward, in the expandable pocket.

Baltimore’s Child Magazine – November 2010 Product Review
November 12, 2010 by Chief Wallabies · Leave a Comment
The Wallaby was included in a very nice product review in the November edition of Baltimore’s Child Magazine. The review is also included in the online version of the magazine as well. Baltimore’s Child is distributed to over 50,000 families in Maryland and is a great resource for families.
The carrier accommodates any type of doll or stuffed animal from 12 to 18 inches in size, including American Girl dolls. It is designed so that the doll faces forward, just like a baby wallaby sitting in his or her mama’s pouch. (A wallaby is basically a small kangaroo.) Not being into dolls at the moment, my neighbors’ daughter instead used her new myWallaby Agile Doll Carrier for carrying her sketchbook, crayons, water, and toys. She liked having a bag to pack while her mom packed her purse. There is no right or wrong way to use this adorable carrier—except for maybe swinging it around your head by the straps.

myWallaby makes the 2010 Breezy Mama Holiday Gift Guide for Toys
November 7, 2010 by Chief Wallabies · Leave a Comment
Breezy Mama is a great Mommy Blog founded by two moms who became friends at a very early age. If you haven’t heard of it before, it is a well known source for trends and advice and is even listed on People.com’s Top 20 Celebrity Baby Blogroll. Here is a little about how Breezy Mama separates itself from the rest-
“Breezy Mama is for those women who feel that motherhood doesn’t define them. They love being a mom but have no problem admitting it’s hard. They put their best foot forward to make life raising kids mutually enjoyable. It’s not about sacrificing for the kids, but doing things everyone enjoys together. The Breezy Mama breaks the mold on what it means when one becomes “a mom.” She is smart, sassy and fun.” ~Breezy Mama About Page
And now a little bit about myWallaby from their 2010 Toy Gift Guide-
“Chelsea said her 7 year-old daughter received this in the morning and didn’t take it off for the entire day. myWallaby is a bag that consists of a doll compartment, a unique front-facing zippered pouch, and two additional zippered pockets, one on the inside of the doll compartment and one on the back of the bag. So now your daughter can take her doll with her, and when she’s tired of carrying it, you won’t be stuck with the duty.”
Thanks Alex and Chelsea!

Trekaroo’s Glowing myWallaby Bag Review
November 1, 2010 by Chief Wallabies · Leave a Comment
Things are starting to heat up for myWallaby as we prepare for the 2010 Holiday Season. To kick things off, Trekaroo.com just posted a very nice review of the myWallaby Bag under the website’s Tips section.
Trekaroo is a great site if you and your family enjoy traveling. The site is dedicated to providing the reader with the inside scoop on traveling with kids. Take it from someone who finds traveling with a two year-old rewarding, but also challenging. Some of the tips on the site are invaluable!
“…as the mother of four, playtime is often interrupted by a need to run an errand or take someone to a practice, game, lesson, etc. Among the protests by the child in the midst of play there is often begging to “please, please can I take my doll and some things with me in the car?” Some days it appears as if we are a traveling toy store. Thankfully, we had the opportunity to review the myWallaby Agile doll carrier which has made me so much more relaxed about letting my kids bring their precious dolls out of the house. Now, I can say “yes” without worrying that a treasured doll might go missing while we are out on an errand or a trip. This amazing product combines a place to carry a doll and a place for a few other toys.”
“The model we received is the “Isle of Capri” blue, it is blue with a lime green pocket and tan suede-like straps. In the words of a 4 year old it is “Totally cool.” It also comes in “cotton candy” pink. The carrier is made of a very durable fabric. The straps are adjustable. It is safe to pop in the washing machine, on a cold, delicate cycle, and line dried. It converts from a purse to a doll carrier or vice versa easily. There is a “pouch” in front, resembling that of a wallaby (think small kangaroo). The pouch folds down when needed to accommodate the doll’s legs for carrying and tucks back into the purse for storage. It has a three zipper pocket that you can stuff with other items. Although designed to fit dolls 12 to 18 inches, we successfully carried a few smaller dolls at once and even some stuffed friends.”
Thanks for the great review Trekaroo!

Parenting Pink Review – “Girls will LOVE myWallaby Doll Carrier Bags!”
September 7, 2010 by Chief Wallabies · Leave a Comment
Elizabeth Donovan, of Parenting Pink, wrote a glowing review of the myWallaby Doll Carrier on September 6th. The review shows up under Parenting Pink’s “Pink Product Review Section.” Thanks Elizabeth for the nice comments — we especially agree with your point about the “no-tears” factor.
One thing in this world is almost certain if you have a daughter – at some point during her childhood, she’ll adore dolls, stuffed animals, or Barbie. Another near-certainty? She’ll carry a purse. So why not combine the two and provide your daughter with something she can tote her dolls or stuffed animals around in? MyWallaby is the perfect answer for girls!
Girls will find this bag multifunctional and fun. My 5-year-old daughter fell in love with the cute design (she has the “cotton candy pink” bag, of course) and enjoyed the fact she could tote her favorite bear “Billy” around in it. My three-year-old insisted on stuffing more than one doll into the bag (which worked) and used the pockets to carry their clothing. My 7-year-old (who feels she’s too old for dolls) found that using MyWallaby as a purse made a great fashion statement.
Parents will love the convenience and no-tears policy. As a mom, what I adore most about the MyWallaby bag is the fact that my daughters can keep their beloved dolls and stuffed animals close by and conveniently tote them around whenever we go to the mall or on other family outings. And that lead to the “no-tears” factor – my daughters can easily stash more than one item in MyWallaby and keep their beloved items strapped over their shoulder without losing them (which, as we all know, usually causes tears).
