As any mom-on-the-go will tell you, when you need to take your kids out with you, whether it's to the mall, to a park, to a family outing, or any number of errands, it's important to bring a veritable truckload of essentials with you. It's a real challenge to look stylish while loaded down with lots of bags and bulky packages, and well-designed gear with special pockets and compartments made with a mom's needs in mind are a must-have!
