Stroller Questions and Confusion

[HollVoll]

We will be at Magic Kingdom for one day at the end of April. We have a 7yo boy, 5yo boy, and a 1yo boy. The 5yo doesn't like that much walking.

Originally I planned to rent a double stroller at MK, but I'm having a hard time finding out details about them.

1. Could a 1yo comfortably nap in their double stroller?
2. Do the strollers have seat belts to hold the little ones in? He is a rascal and would try to get out if there are no restraints.

We have a regular umbrella stroller at home--which would not recline or have a sun shade.

We have a Graco lite rider--with basket, recline, etc. However, I'm not sure we'll have room to pack it. How hard is it to get those on the trams and monorail. (We are staying off site.)

Thanks. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know.

While I think the park strollers are great for older kids IMHO not appropriate for a 1yo. I would bring a comfortable stroller that has a full recline and a sunshade as baby will be spending alot of time in it. If your 1yo isn't walking yet consider a snugle or sling for lines as strollers can't enter the lines. There are also a few attractions or pavillions that don't allow strollers.

Here is a link to everything you need to know about the park strollers compliments of allears:

We have used the park double strollers before, and I wouldn't use them for my 1yr old. It only has a lap belt so, kind of more for keeping them from falling out than keeping them in. No recline, and hard plastic, I have seen smaller ones asleep in them, but they took up the whole stroller. As far as trams and monorail. You have to fold it up on the tram for sure. The monorail you have a chance where you just roll right on if there is room. If you go during crowded times you have to fold it. We usually push the stroller instead of taking the tram. Allears gives a really good pic of them.

I have never had to fold my stroller on the monorail even when leaving at a crowded time.
