When my daughter was little, she went through a stage where she would take off running any time she got outside of my arms’ reach. That was fine in our yard or in a park, but in a crowded mall I had to keep a tight grip on her arm at all times. Perhaps a harness and “leash” would have been helpful then. Cupkateer shows how you can make a leash and harness out of a stuffed animal. Go to the tutorial.

My mistake, I clicked on the ‘Cupkateer’ link instead of the ‘Go to the Tutorial’ link. Either way, great tutorial.
