I use to use a harness for my son, unless he promised to hold my hand. Also used a stroller. - FanOfJack

Just keep telling him to "Hold my fin, hold my fin"... - proudcanuck

Sorry can't help ya, our 3 year old is either in the stroller or holding one of our hands all the time. We used to use the backpack with her but she's gotten much better at holding our hand. Just an FYI, this topic doesn't usually go down well. So if there are any rude comments about your parenting, just ignore them. - LBChica

Stroller, holding hands and we have used the harness. I have to tell you two weeks ago holding hands was scary didn't do it for long. Too many people rushing and not looking down to see our three year old. - PrincessDuckie

Never have used those straps, I keep an eye on my girls. I have never lost them at dl (knock on wood). A couple of yimes when i was on my own have picked up the stickers at town hall that say " I'm with _______ " and a spot for a cell phone number just for piece of mind. - Ms. Rebel Spy

A stroller would probably work - LoveLove

At 5, he should be good w just hand holding... Might look too big for the backpack/leash thing - vanGoghsStarryNight

Copious threatening to leave if they don't stay with you. Always worked for my brother and me. - LaneSparrow316
