I am always on the go. As an active mom with three young children, it’s not always easy to remember to grab everything I need before I rush out the door. Whether I’m off for a run, a workout at the gym, a walk with my boys or a quick shopping trip, I try not to forget my bottle of water. And my ID, my keys, some cash….inevitably, something usually gets left behind. I have locked myself out of my house (several times), been pulled over without my driver’s license on hand and have shown up at the gym without my running shoes! So, although this great new water bottle can’t carry my shoes, it can safely stow an extra key, some ID, a few bucks and ensure proper hydration. Check, check, check! Let’s go!

The Who

Contigo is a drinkware company specializing in travel mugs and water bottles. The Kangaroo features the company’s signature Autoseal technology, making it both spill-proof and leak-proof; perfect for tossing in your purse or gym bag.

The What

The 24 ounce water bottle features a side compartment that can store keys, ID, cash and more. It is 100% BPA free, is dishwasher safe and features a wide opening that can accommodate ice cubes, if desired.

The Where

Ideal for the gym, in the car, on the stroller, in hand, in your bag…you get the idea.

The When

Always. Do we need to get into the importance of staying hydrated? I think not.

The Why

For a very reasonable cost – about $15 – this water bottle can really keep you organized. For some of us, that is priceless.
