Renting stroller at the park- do you bring a mat or cushion?

[DianaMB333]

Hi
I forgot about renting the stroller and can’t find availability for the days we will go.. so, plan B, renting the stroller in the park

It is for 5 yr old, so it will be mostly to avoid long walks.. but as the strollers are plastic I would like to know pls if you bring something to make it more confortable or have any tips to share

Thanks

We used one for our 4, 4 and tiny 6 year olds, they were fine, it worked as a method to get from point A to point B quickly. Since they were above stroller age I wasn’t really worried about them needing a cushion, they were lucky to have a break from walking. I liked park strollers because it was easy for them to hop in and out.

You may have already looked there but maybe try babyquip?

I hadn’t heard of it before but have seen in mentioned on SM a few times now. Maybe there will be some availability? If not, I’d maybe bring along a blanket or something just for some kind of softer barrier, or to block sun so the plastic doesn’t get hot (not sure what the weather looks like).
