Strollers and more?

[Lee Miller]

Our Family is going to be in Disney World the end of August. Can anyone tell me how much strollers are to rent at the parks per day? And any tips for keeping cool with a 2 and 4 year old? Do we need towels at blizzard Beach? I would appreciate ANY advice that may help us enjoy our experience! We are going to AK, MK, Universal, and Blizzard Beach. THANKS.

On our last trip, single stollers were $7 and double were $14. We rented our first trip and then decided to buy a good double instead of wasting money. The Baby Trend double jogging stoller at Babie's R US is great. I think it was about $140, and it fits our DD's 1 and 5 perfectly. Our 5 year old is 50 pounds, she is comfortable and able to take a nap.
Two big baskets underneath, and two zipper sections on the sides.

Hope this helps.

Welcome to the DIS.

You can rent towels at BB. I think it's $1/towel. It's much easier to just get one there instead of dragging around your own wet towel. They aren't large beach towels, though. They're just standard hotel towels.

We brought an umbrella stroller from Walmart under 15.00, suggestion from this board, left it when we left because it was for our then 5 year old. It was great, ties a colored bandana to handle cause lots of people had gotten the same stroller!
