    I have a 21 month old and a 3 yr old. I had planned to bring my double jogging stroller, 45.0 x 30.5 x 40.5 (L x W x H). Is this too big? Or a good idea? Or should I buy a 2nd umbrella stroller and use connectors when we need to? This is our first trip.

    Hi, Sarah! First of all, congratulations on your first trip to WDW!  Secondly, I have to congratulate you also on your good thinking...fabulous question! No matter what time of year you visit WDW, you are going to encounter crowds and tight-squeeze situations. Although double jogger strollers are wonderful for popping those curbs, they don't lend themselves to great maneuvering through the parks and resort areas. They're simply too big and cumbersome when you're trying to keep up with your traveling party in a crowd; winding your way through gift shops, attractions or restaurants; or when you need to fold them up and tuck them away on resort transportation.

    Therefore, I highly recommend bringing two umbrella-type strollers with the option of connectors. I would encourage you to consider the strollers with convenient options such as reclining positions, a retractable canopy, a cargo compartment and a sturdy footrest that doesn't interfere with the front wheels. Let me know if I can answer any more questions you may have! Have a wonderful day and a magical vacation!
