Step aboard
A buggy board attached to the back of a pushchair can be the saving grace of a child's tired little feet when his younger sibling has the seat. The Lascal BuggyBoard Maxi has a width-adjusting system so it can fit almost any pushchair, including major brand models available in Hong Kong. The board has an anti-slip surface, as well as generous ground clearance, making it easier for the pusher to walk behind. HK$740 at Bumps to Babes, units 14-18, 21/F, Horizon Plaza, 2 Lee Wing Street, Ap Lei Chau, tel: 2552 5000.
Drive a bargain

Carried away
An all-in-one bag that hangs off the back of a pushchair and has space enough for a baby and parents' accessories can only be a good thing.
