Help! Stroller issues!

[MeghanNRileysMom]

We are heading to WDW Dec 5th, the "we" are Me, my DH, 4 year old and 2 year old DDs and our 4 year old nephew.

We went last year and brought a regular stroller for the younger DD and travel "lite" type stroller for our older DD, the travel one was a pain to push, the arms were too short and it was rickety.

My plan this time was to just bring our stroller for our younger DD and rent a double at each park for the two 4 year olds.

I'm getting hesitant because I'm afraid they will wind up falling asleep in the stroller and have to be carried back to the Polynesian somehow!

I can't imagine the horror of having to drag our double stroller, or worse yet THREE strollers to WDW on a plane.

What to do, what to do!!!

HELP!!!

Our older DD is almost 4. Last weekend we took her to the Renaissance Festival. We debated about it, and only took one stroller in with us. It was WONDERFUL!!! DD walked from 9:30 in the morning until 5:30 in the evening, only sitting for a couple shows and lunch, with one 20 minute break she took in the stroller while her little sis (18 months) got her bugs and wiggles out and ran around. For our next trip we'll bring both strollers, but only take the second one in at night. Otherwise we'll let them switch off during the day as needed. I figure worst case is we'll have to carry the little one for a short while before the older one decides she's done and will want out.

If I were going in your shoes I would either plan to take or rent a double stroller, or just rent the double one in the parks. That way you have 2 seats, and I would guess you will not often have more than 2 who want to ride at any one time. And if you do one of theirs, I would guess you could squeeze 3 in there if you really had to for a break.

Of course, saying that, we are not real park commando types. I've found that was too tough on the kids.

Oh, do I have a website for you!!

Check out www.abbf.com These wonderful people rent strollers--and everything else under the sun for a baby or little one--for the lenght of time you are in Orlando. They bring the stroller to you and then you leave it at the luggage check at your resort when you leave and they come get it. Their customer service is fabulous and their stuff is totally sparkling clean, fresh smellling and high quality. I cannot even tell you how much better this is than bringing your own or renting one of those hard plastic jobbies. Trust me you will not regret it!!
