(736) Mother’s little helper


They probably also exist in other countries with many bicycles but I first saw them here –they are called “mama-chari” (ママチャリ) i.e. “mama’s bike” and although the term used to refer to any simple bike with a basket, nowadays it means bikes like this, often electric and with two or, sometimes, three baby seats.
