Tap Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 DD3 is 45 lbs and wears a size 5 or 6. I would like a light weight stroller for things like the zoo, but don't know if there are any available that are worth buying for her height/size. I don't really want to spend over $100 since I know we won't use it much, but when we do, it will be much appreciated. If there is one that you have had, and loved that was more $$ maybe I can find it used on Craigslist..... Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that age, I just went with the little, cheap umbrella strollers that you can pick up anywhere. They tend to be in and out of them so much that I didn't worry about how horrid they seemed. It just gave a place for the db to be off their feet for a bit. I didn't worry about destroying the stroller either because it just didn't cost enough to worry about.

Wheres Toto Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 That ad is pretty funny. I would assume its a joke but who knows? :D I've seen weirder things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfatherslily Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 That is pretty funny!!!:) As for the real question, my 6 year old (who is just 38 pounds!!!) likes to ride in the umbrella stroller whenever I'll let her (which is practically never). It's definitely heavier when she's in it, and harder to push, but I'm pretty weak:) Maybe a slightly sturdier umbrella stroller upgrade would work - you know, the nicer ones that are $40-50 instead of the cheapo ones. Do you have a Babies R Us nearby where you could try some out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-FL Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 If some folks give you grief for leashing a kid, can you imagine their horror at having them in a "circus cage?" LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolly Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 But, you know there are times that would have been so nice. Can you imagine the naps they could take in that thing? I always felt so bad for mine when they fell asleep in their strollers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SproutMamaK Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Oh, how I wish my kids were old enough for me to use (the defense of) that ad as practice for logical thinking.... not mention maybe a little marketing class. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know -- I think it's real...but a joke if you know what I mean. Like some Dad made it to make people laugh. Anyone have the guts to call??

Care Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Re: the actual stroller question... I don't have a suggestion on totally lightweight, easy to maneuver anywhere... but I have a bike trailer. It has a jogging stroller attachment, and that's what I use. I wouldn't say anything, except that I was pushing my toddler AND a 6yo in there at the zoo without so much as an "oof, you guys are heavy!" So, while it's not the most practical thing ever, it has been a fabulous thing for us - and will hold two kids no problem, so if that's ever a 'thing'... Yeah. Okay, !ramble.

ChristusG Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 There are some crazies on craigslist LOL!!! I have a 3 and 6 year old. My kids love riding in strollers (my 6 year old will still ride in one whenever we allow her to, for as long as we will allow her to). We have a Maclaren Quest. It will hold up to 55 pounds and reclines well enough for napping. Not to mention, it pushes really smoothly, even with my 6 year old in it. But we also still have our Phil and Teds Sport Buggy double stroller. Both kids still ride in it - ALOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
