I bring zip ties from home and a license plate I had personalized at DTD and I put the zip ties through the holes on the license plate and then around the basket on the stroller. It's always very clear who's stroller it is and we can spot it a mile away.

That's a great idea!!! I haven't figured out yet what I am going to do. Gotta come up with something b/c I have a red Joovy SitnStand and I'm sure there are going to be tons of them there!

I would love to hear some ideas as well!!

I usually have a BRIGHT hair tie, one that has stuff hanging from it tied to the handles. You could use a a piece of fabric bright colored and tie to around as well.

I put our name on the canopy with fabric paint that comes in a little squirt tube. It also is LIME Green and the canopy is dark blue so it really stands out!

Then I wash the canopy in the washing machine and the paint will just peel off without hurting the fabric.

I took the green Mickey heads, glued them onto a foam doorknob hanger from Michaels, added my daugther's name and tied it onto the handle. Very visible and inexpensive.

We use bright ribbon on the handlebars. Helps to pick the stroller out among the sea of parked strollers.

I bought lime green ribbons and string and tied them in various places on the stroller.

I also bought an Ariel luggage tag and put our info on it and attached it to the stroller.

Lastly, I used a permanent marker and wrote our last name in many different places (handle, side of seat, and under the seat)

Okay, since you mentioned it...I've been meaning to ask about these lime green Mickey heads...what's the deal? I wasn't sure if this was just for a select group within the Dis or something everyone did for fun.

Just a bright rainbow bandana on ours. Stands out. I think any bandana tha has different pattern vs the more western red or blues ones would work. Mine was free (cant get cheaper) because of a spirit day at DS's school.

The lime green mickey heads are for any and all disboard members to use/wear in the parks in order to be recognized by other dis members - if you choose you get them in the home depot paint chip area "alien green"

I think I want to do that with my stroller. Do you happen to know who makes it, or does it say washable on the bottle. I don't want to buy the wrong kind and then it won't come off.

I buy it at Micheals or any other craft store.

It is by Scribbles and it is a 1 oz bottle.

Okay, that is what I thought, but wasn't quite sure. I've seen those Mickey paint chips...very cute...may have to pick some up at HD. Thanks for the info.

Great ideas, thanks! I did not want to have to resort to the fake dirty diaper trick!

 

[Mkrop]

Minus the dirty diaper couldt you just take a plastic bag from a store that looks pretty different and use that with you name on it with a sharpie. I see your from NJ so I dont know if you have any Shoprites in the area, I am thinking one of their bright yellow bags could do the trick.

Any other ideas out there?

I came up with a small craft project for myself. I cutout a 9 x 12 piece of fabric, trimmed it with ribbon (to finish the edges), and used letters from the craft store (patch section) to spell our last name. Finished it off with 3 grommets across the top. I attach it to the handle bar of the stroller with zip ties loosely, and then just cut them off when we get back home. It was durable enough to make it through gate check and our flights and 10 days at Disney!
