More stroller questions!!

[disney102105]

Hi there, I know there are TOO MANY questions about stollers but this will be my first time taking the kids to WDW. Soooooo I was wondering if we have to park our stroller outside of everything?? I mean like the restaurants, Epcot countries and so on. Basically I am just wondering if we have to get the kids out and our bags everytime we want to go inside something?? Do most of you guys leave stuff in your strollers when you park them or what?? Any basic stroller etiquette is welcome!!!

Yes, you have to do a lot of stroller parking. We kept a bag in the stroller with diapers, change of clothes, snacks, etc. (stuff that we wouldn't miss if it disappeared) on the stroller/in the basket and took a small bag with cameras, wallets, anything else valuable, on all of the rides with us.

At the Epcot countries, you can usually keep the stroller if you are in the outdoor areas or shops. All shows and rides require you to park the stroller, as do character lines (unless they are ad hoc lines outside). Restaurants usually do, unless you have a baby who can't sit up in a high chair yet.

Use a colorful ribbon or bandana to mark your stroller so that it is easy to find (and harder for someone to mistake as theirs) - cast members move the strollers often, so you can't count on finding it where you left it!

We usually have more than one bag. One back pack has all of our valuables in it and we take it with us everywhere and the rest we leave with the stroller.

I agree with marking your stroller. I use florescent tape on the handle. Also get a stroller rain cover. I leave ours on the stroller all the time. Its pulls up behind the canopy easily and stays there. When we leave the stroller, I always pull it down, especially this time of year. On our first trip, I didnt do this and came off a ride to pouring rain and a soaked stroller.
