Does anyone know if they sell those little child safetly harness/backpack things at Disneyland or Downtown Disney? We are going next week, and I can't find one I like in any stores here (I've only found an Elmo one and a plain backpack). It would be great to find a Disney one! We want to give it a try since our little one is almost 2 and loves to take off on us. I would hate to lose her at the parks.

Thanks!
 
A few years back, I converted regular backpacks into harness/leash ones by doing the following:
  • Went to the fabric store and bought canvas belt material and buckles (they had a bunch of different colors)
  • Used dental floss as my thread (very strong) and looped small amounts of the belt material around the straps (to go across the chest, but I left my looped around, so I can easily remove without damaging the backpack) and attached the buckle to make the harness
  • Sewed a loop handle at the end of my "leash"
  • Sewed a carabiner at the other end of the leash
The carabiner leash can be attached to the loop on the top of the backpack, or on the straps, or removed completely when not in use. The harness across the chest is super-handy for keeping the backpack on the child (those are still on the backpacks, while the leashes are somewhere in the playroom - yeah, they get played with as leashes!)
 
My son (almost 4) is a runner. When we were at Disneyland last year we had him in his harness and had to field a lot of questions of where we got it because it was Tigger.

We bought it at Walmart, and that's the only place I've ever seen Disney themed ones. My daughter has a Piglet one and I think that they have a Winnie the Pooh one too.
 

Costco recently had some Disney ones. Maybe Pooh and Tigger. My DD wanted to get one for her brother, but we already have 2. They were really cute. I think I saw them about a month ago.
 
I see your from Sacramento. I think that when we bought ours YEARS AGO that we got ours from Goore's. You might want to call them and see if they have them still.

I just did a quick search and found this:

Thanks everyone for the info. I didn't even think about checking at Goore's. I like the Mickey Mouse one sold on Amazon, I'll see if any stores carry it. Hope I find one by next week!
