Time has proven that the best stroller for kids who are already striving to know the world around them is a stroller. This type of transport is very popular among mothers of the whole world, because in it the child rolls many hundreds of kilometers in the first two years of his life. As a rule, while the child does not know how to sit, parents carry him in a cradle. As soon as the baby begins to sit, he is transplanted from the cradle into a stroller, an open stroller. This happens in about 6-8 months. Before you begin to make trips in a stroller, you must make sure that your child independently and firmly knows how to sit.
The best stroller requires careful selection. It has a number of advantages and disadvantages. In order not to make a mistake in the model that suits you, it is necessary to study in detail the main criteria for strollers. The variety of brands is very large. Here are just a few of them: Capella, Graco, Quatro and others.
The best stroller is a summer, open stroller. It is intended for babies who have learned to sit well (6–8 months). As a rule, at this age, children are already bored of lying in a cradle. The packaging should be labeled with the information: "for children from six months."
The advantages of an open stroller include:
- light weight (less than 12 kg);
- compactness;
- seat belts, as well as bumper protection in front of the child;
- twin front wheels. The presence of fixation gives the wheels stability and maneuverability;
- adjustable backrest. Position from vertical to "lying". This feature provides the baby with a greater view.
The disadvantages include:
- not all strollers are laid out horizontally;
- an open type stroller is more suitable for the summer season, while winter snowdrifts will be difficult to overcome;
- in such a stroller it will be difficult to rock the baby, since she has practically no depreciation.
The best stroller has a number of characteristics. One of the main characteristics is its weight. It is also convenient if during a walk you have to climb a lot and go down the stairs, step over curbs.
It is generally accepted that the best stroller is a walking stick. It is compact and lightweight. It is also convenient in that it can easily be taken with you on any trip: whether it is hiking, riding a car or long trips by train. Advanced strollers of this type are those that can be folded with one hand.
To date, the range of cane strollers is very diverse. A choice of both light summer canes and warmed options suitable for winter.
However, no matter how hard the manufacturers try, the stroller cane is of little use for the winter season. The disadvantage is the small wheels.
The best option is to purchase two strollers at once: a light summer stroller for the warm season and an insulated walking crew for winter trips.
So, what should be emphasized when choosing a stroller? First, pay attention to the wheels. This part of the stroller is most susceptible to wear. Bearings are preferred. Secondly, a comfortable stroller should be folded to the lying position. And finally, the presence of a roomy and comfortable mesh trunk is preferred for most mummies.
