Fan for strollers?

[Julie711]

I put a thread on " Theme Parks" but thought I'd get some good answers here! Looking on where I can get a fan to attach to the front tray of a stroller. We have misting fans, but ive seen these before and thought was a good idea, especially since we are going in warm September!
Thanks

I bought one on amazon. I don't remember the brand, but it was white with blue foam blades.

Make sure you bring extra batteries and a small screwdriver to open the battery compartment! We learned that lesson the hard way...

We bought this same one. And we have the small screwdriver on our packing list! Too bad my son hates it. He gets scared when we clip it on the stroller and yells "no fan!". We hope to get him used to it before the trip.

We bought this one and love it. We get so many comments on it when we use it.

We used it at a local amusement park and needed to change the batteries about halfway through the day because it was on constantly because no where was air conditioned. However, in Disney we only needed to change the batteries once the whole week because everywhere was air conditioned.

Also, you don't need to carry a screwdriver. Take the screws out at home and leave them out. The back is designed in such a way that it will stay closed without the screws.

I ordered one from One Step Ahead 10 years ago and used it until it finally quit maybe two years ago??? It was much bigger than the fans I've seen on other sights, and it didn't have a spring-clamp, but a clamp you could tighten/loosen easily. Also, the blades were enclosed in a plastic cage, so nothing stuck into the blades . I found the fans with the foam blades to be very weak and incapable of creating a strong breeze. Another plus is that the head on this fan is bigger, creating more wind. As you said...it gets HOT in Sept lol.

One Step Ahead no longer carries the fan, but I did find one similar.

And I totally agree with a pp--bring extra batteries AND a tiny screwdriver for replacing them!

We use the Dreambaby linked above and love it! We didn't have to change the batteries during our trip.

We used the Dreambaby fan above as well - I only had to change the batteries once during a ten day trip. Worked well and I didn't have to worry about my daughters fingers when she reached out and touched it because they were foam.
