Stroller for a 6yo?

[dolly-dawne]

I have always used a strooler for my boys. they are now 14,10,and 5.The youngest is turning 6 this august while we are in Disney. (his b-day is in Disney everyyear,he wants to know "WHY") He will still use a stroller -this year although perhaps not as much. I always joke that I will still want to use one when they are all grown to hold all my stuff for the days. When he was 3 and other was 7 I had a sit and stand stroller. Its a stroller with a platform on the back for an older child to sit or stand on.Holds up to 90lbs. It was perfect for late nights in the park. Sometimes even my DN WOULD USE IT WHEN TIRED AT NIGHT AND HE WAS ALMOST 9. When we were leaving I saw a family with two children who looked to be about 2 and 6. they had only one stroller and were talking about buying one for dd who was older. I gave them mine as I knew I would not need it again. The next year my middle son would always be walking.

We were there last December with our two children - DD5, DS3. We debated this same question and decided to bring a sit / stand stroller and were glad we did.
even though my dd was 5, she often jumped on the stroller (standing part) rather than walking. We were there for a long vacation so the cost of renting would have been more than purchasing a new stroller.
