Sit and Stand strollers

[Jenn1980]

You know the ones where the older child can stand on the back of the stroller, do they have those available, or wagons even. Just trying to pre-plan if our 4 and 6 yr olds will get tired from all the walking.

You can't rent sit and stands from disney, and wagons are not allowed in the parks.
I know there is a place called Orlando Stroller Rental but I am not sure what types they have. I brought a sit and stand last year (a 2 and 5 year old) and it was a godsend!

I bought a sit and stand and my boys loved it! We thought about renting vs buying and for us buying was worth it! I liked the idea of having it in the airport to contain them around so many people. And I figured buying a really nice one that would last us awhile was better than renting one that may be heavier and bulkier. We got the Joovy Caboose Ultralight through Amazon. Can't recommend it enough! It was easy to push had a nice area to store goodies. A canopy big enough to cover both boys in the rain. And neither child complained about a sore bottom all week

We have a sit and stand and love it! I bought mine at a local resale shop for a fraction of the cost of new.

I am pretty sure that I also saw that Orlando Stroller Rental had Sit and Stands to rent as well. I picked one up off Craigslist last year. I didn't care for it and ended up reselling it. My complaint with it is just that it was felt odd to push. I know that sounds strange, but I just knew that if it was awkward to push around the mall, I didn't stand a chance in Disney!

Sit and Stands are a must! I am convinced of this after our trip last year with another family who just had 1 stroller and we had the sit and stand. I agree that you woudl probably be better off buying one. It will not go to waist.

We have a peg perago stroller, not really a sit and stand, but an older child can stand on the foot stand on the back. It was wonderful having and it folds like an umbrella stroller so its not bulky at all. We bought the first one at a Marshalls for $99, then a new one when I found out I was pregnant on ebay. I old one lasted like four years and three WDW trips, we still use it now when we go hiking so the new one doesn't get so dirty.

The standard Joovy Caboose sit and stands are on sale on Amazon right now for $109.99. They seem to be higher quality than the baby trend ones and now, the price is right.

Took sit and stands twice to Disney. Unfortunately they both never made it through the trials of Disney. R.I.P.

Tried to bury them at HM. But I couldn't fight off all the CMs trying to stop me. I almost had them buried until Harold the 85 year old retiree security CM sucker punched me. He hit like a mule kicks. Never ever underestimate any Disney CM.

Sit and Stands are great for small children, but I think your kids are too big. The front seat of our baby trend is too small for my slender 4 y.o. and even when he was 3 his legs were too long for the front. Of course the bigger kid is meant to be in the back (ours converts to a true double stroller with an extra seat that can be removed to the sit and stand platform/jumpseat).

Besides the size constraints, the stroller is very hard to push. If the kids are younger/smaller, I don't think that would be an issue. My stroller also has air tires, which I thought would allow for easier pushing/steering. Not the case, unfortunately.

How about a jogger? That might be easier to push and accomodate older kids.
