My Q is about strollers, last yr we rented a double from the park. Kids did use it, but sick about spending $ on that. Kids will be 8,6,4. Do you think an umbrella stroller would be fine for 4 yr old? What do you suggest?

Question

Answer 1

Hey Michelle!

I know what you mean about strollers--they ARE helpful but then they are a pain, too! And I agree about the money--a cheapie umbrella stroller is much better on the wallet!

We did Disney in September with my then 4 year old daughter and 2 year old son. So, we had one of the sit-and-stand double strollers. So, my daughter basically sat up the entire time--or walked. She never fell asleep. (That's the best part of the stroller, right? Having them sleep in it?)

If I was going with just her i would have done an umbrella stroller just b/c it's not as cumbersome and honestly, it's so cheap you could just leave it there and not even worry about it!

My suggestion is try the umbrella stroller the first day and if you feel like you need a big stroller, than you can get it the next day!

Actually, I just asked my daughter what she thought and she said the "little stroller!" :)

Hope that helps!
