Parking Pal Car Magnet, Keep Kids Safe Around Vehicles

This magnet has saved my sanity now that I have two children. My three-year-old had a tendency to wander off from the car while I was dealing with the infant, but now that he has his handprint, he is thrilled to go put his hand there and stay there. I put it on the babys side of the car so that I can more easily keep an eye on him while putting her in and out of the car. Its not an unsupervised solution, but its a great assistant so that I can look away to put the baby in the car.

Awesome idea and it works! I have triplets and this has been a godsend. It has eliminated the problem of them running out and into the parking lot.

After seeing this magnet on another car I was convinced I needed one for myself. I have two very independent boys, age 2 and 5, who dont always like to follow directions in a parking lot. Since having this magnet on my car, it has really helped to keep them near me and focused while I gather everything I need to get in/out of the car. In fact, they tend to argue over who gets to put their hand over the blue hand on the magnet. If they were not $9 is probably purchase a second magnet. Im very happy with this magnet, its definitely helped me feel like my kids are staying safely near me, and I would recommend every parent have one on their car.

Gave as a gift to my DIL...my grandson lives it.

Great!! I love being able to just tell my kids hand in hand and they put their hands on the magnet and just stand by the car. Great idea and it stays on really well, even while driving through woods and tall brush.

My son is 2.5 and has a habit of running off. While I always make it a priority to put him in the car first, sometimes my hands are just too full. This is great for those times. We practice using it at other times, when I can see how he will do on his own and he does great. He loves putting his hand on the purple hand and talking about the fish. It totally buys me the extra 20 seconds I need to get him safely in the car. This is a great product and a great idea. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to keep their toddler safer in the parking lot.

Its great!! Too bad theres very little metal on my car for this magnetic disk to work, but the 3 yr old loves it. The only place it will stick is the flap tgat covers my gas tank.

Love this! My 2 yr old is excited about the trains and telling us about everything in the picture. He also knows exactly where to go to stay at the car and out of the way of opening doors. I was sceptical, but am now thinking of getting a second to put on the other side of the car.

I bought one for my granddaughter to keep her safe when I would buckle or unbuckle her baby sister. I bought one for each of my friends who are expecting their 2nd child. They love it. You just have to be consistent.

A lot of instances where I realized that we need something to hold one kid to while we get the other kid out of the car seat. I have seen the product and some photos, I was a doubter and did not believe that this could work on my kids but glad I was wrong and man this does work. My kid usually does not follow an instruction which takes him away from fun but this has been something that he likes doing. My kid also asks my wife to hang on and touch the parking magnet and wait for daddy to say all clear before we move away from the vehicle (like the Croods)- very cute but I was impressed. I purchased 2 and look forward to buy 2 more when they have some deal/discount to have them on both the sides of our vehicles so both our kids can stay close to us while we load and unload groceries, kids etc. Pros: Safety of your child, parking lot discipline and around cars Colorful and fun tasks to work with like count the fish, find an alphabet etc. The palm print itself keeps my son busy as he tries to match his palm and fingers The magnet stays on with usual daily usage, I haven;t tried driving through heavy downpour or car wash to test it but wish the seller/manufacturer could test and update the results No Cons but will update more after further usage and testing:) We love this product and recommend this to all families with toddlers.
