Trunki

I first saw this great compact gadget Trunki on the hit TV show Dragons Den and I was immediately taken with this product and thought it was a great idea. Trunki is a great design which allows children to carry small amounts of luggage themselves but also it doubles as a ride on suitcase which the parent can pull along.

The ideal situation for these are when you going on holiday you have a wait for delays at the airport and these allow the child to carry things which can entertain them along the way. This allows for a smoother holiday experience and the parents can enjoy a less stressful time at the airport.

These have great safety features for your children which lets be honest is the most important thing. They have added strong catches and rubber rims around the edges to avoid fingers getting trapped. The case itself is made strong to make sure it can support the child’s weight.

I have also added a video below which has the inventor of Trunki Rob Law on the TV show Richard and Judy. Take a look and I’m sure you will be convinced this would be a great item to have for your children. You can purchase the Trunki from Firebox now for a great price of between £29.95 and £34.95 depending on which Trunki you wish to purchase.
