Water bottle with carrying strap for kids??

[Corie]

What kind of water bottle do you/your kids use at camp?

The water bottle needs to be worn by a carrying strap.

I made one for my kids just using an old lanyard but it's not
long enough to do across the body. They can only carry it
around their neck and it is too heavy. It is hurting my son's
neck.

Do they make any straps that are long enough to wear cross-body
and have some sort of padding at the neck area?

They sell official things: http://www.amazon.com/Kanteen-Stainless-Shoulder-27-Ounce-Bottles/dp/B000FN7UY6/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1311173696&sr=1-1

But I rigged one up with a carabiner and a small strap from another bag.

I found One at Tuesday Morning. It had an adjustable strap, which I thought was great. My ds needed one for camp.

I got the one Beth linked to. It fits most water bottles. We have the Thermos brand stainless steel bottle from Target.

it does not fit the plastic Intak bottles though due to the curved sides.

I have repurposed the strap from my camera bag to use with my Kleen canteen
