Protect Your Valuables From Thieves by Storing Them In Children's Bags

When traveling it's easy to feel vulnerable, since carrying all of your valuables around with you in an unfamiliar place can make you an easy target for thieves. Our friends over at Lifehacker Australia suggest hiding them in plain sight: your kids' bag.

Besides being less appealing to thieves, a child's colorful bag is also easier to spot in a crowd should it get swiped.

We've written about thieves' tendency to overlook a child's room room before?and this tip employs similar logic. Of course, it only really works if you have kids. Although if you aren't a parent, it might not hurt to buy a Dora the Explorer bag and give it a shot anyway.
