I was visiting my DH at the school for children with special needs that he runs, and got an idea for stroller bags. There were a line of children's wheelchairs in the hall and each had a cute backpack on back hanging from then handles. So, I came home and googled wheelchair backpacks and got a ton of hits. I think many of these bags would make great stroller bags. Many are waterproof, have tons of pockets and drink holders. The go over the handle bars much like the skip hop. Some were very inexpensive. Here are just a few of them that I found.

Ok, I'll comment! Those are great! And, the prices are really quite reasonable. I think for those strollers on whihc the skip hop won't work, this is a wonderful alternative. Good idea :)

My dad is in a wheelchair (spinal cord accident 2 years ago :() and has one of those. There are just no stylish colors in those bag but I'm a black bag girl anyway!

I'll have to tell him about your post and see if he knows of any other sites that have good ones.

The kids had really cute colorful ones, I just can't find a site that sells them. Many looked much like regular school backpacks but with shorter straps. The next time I am at the school I will sneak a closer look.
