A New Trend In Toddler Stroller
What to Look For in a Toddler Stroller
Strollers are an excellent way to ensure your toddler on adventures. It should come with a 5-point harness to keep the child safe and swivel locks that won't roll off.
If you have a baby look into an infant travel system that connects to your car seat, or a convertible model that can grow from single to double (and sometimes triple when you add the Vista PiggyBack ride-along board). Choose a basket that offers plenty of room and is easy to reach.
Safety
If you want your child to have fun strolling around for years make sure you choose a top-quality model that has safety features that are in line with the strictest standards. Included in this are age and size compatibility as in a stable design, restraining straps, sunshades and seats with a secure shell. Find a 5-point harness that has straps at the crotch, between the legs, and over the shoulders to prevent your child from falling off the stroller in a crash. Many strollers have additional hip straps that can further increase your child's safety.
Strollers are tested for impact to ensure that they meet safety standards. The stroller is lowered from a height to measure the force of the impact. This ensures that it will not slide over when it is in use. The top strollers also have an extremely secure, lockable brake system that can be engaged just like in cars.
Examine the brake pedals and make sure that they are easy to operate by yourself but difficult to remove for children. If possible, opt for a magnetic harness that makes use of strong magnets to keep the harness straps together. It is simple to fasten for parents, but difficult for infants to open. Also look for a padded bumper bar that wraps around the frame, and an opening for a safety harness that closes when the seat is in a reclined position to prevent your baby from being trapped.
Folding and unfolding strollers should be done away from children to prevent pinching hazards. Make sure the hinges are free of sharp edges and protrusions. Place bags in the storage area or the basket beneath the stroller to prevent the risk of entanglement and to decrease the chance of the stroller falling over when it is in motion. Never hang prams pushchairs , diaper bags, or other items from the stroller handles. This could pose an injury to your baby.
Strollers are a great option for your child to explore the world and discover the natural world, so pick one with an expandable shade or canopy to shield them from harsh sunlight. Keep snacks and drinks handy with a cup or bottle holder as well as a tray for snacks. A bag clip or a tote will help you carry shopping and other items without adding bulk to your stroller.
Comfort
As toddlers age to be more mobile, they require a stroller that is more comfortable than what they had when they were infants. A seat that has plenty of padding and recline features will allow them to sit comfortably and remain relaxed in their stroller. A model with adjustable footrests and a canopy will also be able to accommodate their changing heights. Other crucial aspects to consider include a sturdy frame, 5-point harness, and braking systems that guarantee safety.
A double stroller is perfect for parents who have twins or children with similar ages. Choose a double stroller with a reversible seating position so that they can ride facing toward the parent or facing each the other. Reversible chairs can assist your children to bond while walking. You may choose a stroller with cups holder, or a clip for your bag so you can keep drinks and snacks close at hand.
The most effective strollers for toddlers are simple to fold and move. Strollers that have swivel wheels and suspension systems that work can make it easier for you to navigate through crowded streets or on rough terrain. Also, you should look for a stroller that comes with an adjustable handlebar, and windows that can be viewed from a distance. You may also want a parking brake that is operated by hand to make it easier and more convenient to use when your hands are full.
Whether you're out on a short trip around town or on a long holiday, the right stroller can keep your family and you comfortable while exploring. From an ultra-compact self-folding design, to a large basket for storage These strollers provide the convenience and flexibility you need.
To narrow down your options I spoke to five experts on strollers and parenting such as Lisa Trofe, executive director of the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association; Kyleyn Gosewisch, customer care specialist at Strolleria; Marielle Marquez, pediatric occupational therapist and co-founder of Thrive Little; Holly Choi co-founder and co-owner at Safe Beginnings First Aid, an organization that provides baby and child safety information and Sarah Huff, senior manager of customer and community services at BabyQuip, a baby equipment rental site. Read on to learn their top tips to choose the ideal stroller for toddlers.
Folding
Your child will likely leap into and out of the stroller on their own, so look for a model that has an easy-to-use folding mechanism. Some models fold down with a single hand, while some have straps which you can use to carry the stroller around if you need to. Look for a stroller with an enormous canopy to protect your child from the sun, or one that has multiple recline positions.
Some of the top strollers come with a compartment where you can attach an infant car seat (and some have additional attachment points for baby carriers). You might want to opt for a lightweight stroller that weighs less than 30 pounds, so that it's easy to lift to and from public transportation. If you plan to use the stroller on uneven surfaces, choose one with large sturdy wheels that can roll easily over a variety of terrain.
If you need to, a stroller that has straps that are cushioned can easily be carried over your shoulder. Don't hang a diaper or purse bag from the handle of your stroller. It could cause it to tip over and cause injuries or suffocation to your baby.
The stroller you select should have a five-point harness which securely attaches to the rear and front of your child. It should also have large, ample storage basket that is accessible and an infant tray. A reclining seat is essential for tired toddlers.

What is the difference between a Stroller and a Pram?
A stroller is a mobile vehicle that can be used to transport infants or small children. Some strollers are able to carry an infant car seat and some have a flat bassinet that converts into an adult-sized seat. While the majority of strollers are difficult to take, a few models have locks and shackles that prevent them from being taken by passersby. Wearing your child in a top-rated baby carrier is an excellent alternative to strollers. It can help strengthen bonding and allow you to complete other tasks such as grocery shopping or running errands.
Stores
As your baby grows, stroller rides become more involved than the quick out and back strolls of childhood. You'll need more gear for these excursions. This includes a diaper bag that is filled with snacks drinks, snacks, and other clothing for Baby. Storage for your stroller is essential to bringing all of these items and keeping them within reach.
Consider a stroller with ample storage space that can accommodate your diaper bag or spare clothes, one of our best water bottles for children and much more. Being armed with these essentials will allow you to enjoy your outing without having to keep a hand on baby or keep an eye on bags while you walk.
Most full-size strollers offer plenty of storage space, but if you want an even easier-to-access place to store items, look for strollers that has a tray for the parents. These consoles typically offer both cups holders as well as a large storage compartment that can hold more than just drinks. Some of our favorite strollers have a tray for parents and some have it as an optional add-on.
If you are choosing a stroller that has a tray for parents, be sure it comes with deep cup holders that can securely hold your beverage. Shallow cup holders could spill over the edge, posing the risk to your child. We also suggest not hanging items from the handlebars as it can cause the stroller to tip over. Depending on the weight of the item and how steep the terrain and the amount of weight in the bottom storage basket, this could transform a stroller that is stable into an extremely tippy one.
Families that plan to have more than one child in the coming years should think about a tandem or side by side stroller. These types of strollers have seats that are placed in a row, side-by-side, with a toddler seat on top and an infant seat at the bottom. These strollers can save you money in the long run by permitting users to use a single stroller from birth until toddlerhood.
