How to keep bottles cool while at the parks...

[Emmaline Lola]

Has anyone here used the Avent Thermal Tote? It comes in grey, red, or blue and keeps either cold or hot for up to 4 hours.

The reason I like the look of this is because you can attach it to the stroller or diaper bag so you have room in your diaper bag for the other hundred things you need for a "2 foot person"!

Any advice is truly appreciated!

Thanks,

i have never used that one but have used many others they all seem to work well especially if you put a small ice pack in with the bottles

We didn't use that particular one, but we did use something similar made by Munchkin. It worked really well. There was room in it for 3-4 bottles, and I use a couple of the ice packs that came with my Medela PIS which fit in it perfectly and kept the bottles nice and cool all day. Of course, I also tried to keep it under the stroller where the sun wouldn't beat on it directly all day long.

Hi. I do not have the Avent cooler, we use Dr. Brown's Bottles. When we go on long trips, we use a soft coller with those little frozen ice packs. It is very convenient because they work for over 12 hours and as they melt, they do not make a mess. At the end of the day, throw them back in the freezer and they will be ready for the next day. Hope that helps!
