Great Baby Products from Jeep *Giveaway*

With flu season underway, it’s critical that parents take steps to keep their children healthy and help prevent the spread of both the seasonal flu and the H1N1 virus (also known as the swine flu).  While parents are still going about their daily lives, they are looking for tips and products that will fit seamlessly into their lives yet help protect their children.

One easy solution to reduce baby’s risk of being exposed to the flu while running errands is to use the Jeep Shopping Cart Cover.  This large shopping cart cover fits easily over the entire shopping cart seat, allowing for total protection from germs and bacteria often found on them.  The Jeep Shopping Cart Cover features a 3-point safety harness to keep baby secure, extra padding in the seat and back area, loops to attach teethers and small toys and a “roll and stroll” design for easy portability.  It’s even machine-washable so it’s simple to stay germ-free!

Great Tips to help prevent the spread of the flu:

  • Get yourself and your child vaccinated with the flu shot
  • Wash hands frequently with soap and warm water for at least twenty seconds (the time it takes to sing the “ABC” song)
  • Use hand sanitizer when on the go, especially after being in public spaces with shared surfaces, such as escalator handrails, elevator buttons and door handles
  • Attach a lightweight receiving blanket to the edge of a car seat or stroller sun shade to act as an extra shield against airborne germs, especially when passing through crowded public places such as an airport, grocery store or shopping mall
  • Keep a distance, at least two steps away, from people who are sick
  • Parents need to take care of themselves too – keep your hands away from eyes, nose and mouth to limit the spread of germs and cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing with your elbow or a tissue
  • Wipe down solid surfaces at home with a chemical-free cleanser and wash toys frequently – they can even be put in the top rack of a dishwasher!
  • Use the Jeep Shopping Cart Cover to limit baby’s exposure to germs

You can keep all your baby or toddler’s stuff organized and kept clean in the Jeep Exploration Diaper Bag.  Perfect for mom or dad, the Jeep Exploration Diaper Bag organizes all of baby’s essentials with a large interior zippered compartment for convenient storage.  A front flap pocket provides quick storage for smaller necessities while the side pockets are great for holding bottles.  The stylish orange interior compartment boasts two additional bottle pockets, an easy-to-clean divider pocket and a removable changing pad.

Features:

  • Messenger-style design with secure front flap closure
  • 3-tone styling with interior accent color
  • Easy-access exterior pocket for keys, cell phone, pacifier and other essentials
  • Spacious interior with changing pad and dirty duds pouch
  • Side bottle storage
  • Adjustable shoulder strap
  • Jeep® diaper bag is polyester.
  • Size: 16x5x11″H.
  • Wipe clean with damp cloth. Imported.

      Constant hand washing with soap & water at home, use hand sanitizer when we’re on the go, increase our citrus fruits and juices to get more Vit. C, try to get 7-8 hours of sleep nightly, ask friends & relatives not to visit if they’re sick and we do the same for them. I used to think Howie Mandel’s phobia of germs was excessive but when news of swine flu hit, I found that I’m reticent to shake hands. Maybe when we greet one another, we should use the Japanese custom of bowing. :-)

      We put a lot of emphasis on remembering to wash hands frequently and to not touch your face when you’re in public and touching a lot of nasty things like shopping carts, haha. This is a great idea for a product. Thanks for the contest!
