Just How Dirty are Shopping Carts?
ABC News reports that shopping cart handles have more germs than public restrooms! According to researches from the University of Arizona, shopping carts are "loaded with more saliva, bacteria and even fecal matter than escalators, public telephones, and even public bathrooms". Their suggestion - wash your hands, wash your baby's hands and invest in a shopping cart cover.

Every time I go to the grocery store or out to eat we always have our shopping cart/highchair cover with us. It makes me feel so much better to know that Henry is touching our clean things rather than what others have touched, sneezed on, licked or worse. I know it is my job as his mommy to do whatever possible to keep him healthy.

Tips to Stay Healthy this Flu Season
The CDC's website suggests these steps:
Cover your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze
Wash your hands and your child's hands with soap and water
Use hand sanitizer
Avoid contact with those who are sick

If you or your child does get sick, do stay home to prevent spreading germs
Itzy Ritzy's Ritzy Sitzy Shopping Cart/High Chair Cover is a great way for your customers to protect their little ones from germs. The cover acts as a barrier between their children and the germ-filled surfaces of shopping carts (both single and double) and restaurant high chairs.

All of the Itzy Ritzy Products are available in a variety of colors and fabrics. They are also reversible. Itzy Ritzy makes an infant car seat cover, toddler car seat cover, and the Peek a Boo Pod as well as the Shopping cart/High Chair Cover.

This Peek a boo pod is one of my favorite new products from the ABC show. I always kept a blanket of the kids carriers to keep the wind. sun, or strangers away. The Peek a Boo Pod is perfect for just that. It is light weight so you don't have to worry about them getting over heated. The sun and wind are kept away and it is hard for people to get in and love and touch all their nasty germs all over your baby. You will love this. Again great fabrics to choose from.
