Choosing A Stroller
Every baby needs a stroller, but which one will fit best with your lifestyle? Well,
the first thing to know is that most parents own two or three strollers during their
child's infancy: a light one for errands or travel, for instance, and a heavy-duty
model for long walks around the park or trips to the mall. Most strollers are designed
for children up to 40 lbs and 4 years old. Most children start walking on their own
around age 3, but having a lightweight stroller around during the 4th year for those
times when little legs get tired is a good idea.

Consider a Travel System
First, if you are also planning to buy a Graco SnugRide® infant car seat, you
might want to look into a travel system, which includes an infant
car seat, which doubles as an infant carrier, a stay-in-car base, and a compatible
Graco stroller. A travel system provides ease in getting your infant from place to place.
When you're headed for a trip just click your SnugRide infant car seat into the stay-in-car base
in your automobile, then when you get where you're going remove the SnugRide infant car seat
from its base and click it into your Graco stroller -without having to worry about waking
your napping baby.

Features to look for:
- Recline. Reclined stroller seats offer support and comfort for your child. Different strollers
recline different amounts. Some strollers offer total recline, so that your baby is essentially
lying flat. This provides maximum stability and support and comfort for infants.
- Storage. When you're traveling with your baby there's always a lot that needs to come along, from
changing pads to apple juice. Some strollers offer storage options, allowing you to keep needed
items close at hand.
- Foldability. Strollers have different ways of folding, with some requiring more steps than others.
The ultimate in foldability is the one-hand fold: a real convenience for moms and dads who need all
the hands they can get.

|
- Lifestyle Options. When you shop for strollers you'll find a variety of options that are intended
to match your lifestyle: jogging strollers with tether straps for when you're exercising
(a favorite among fast-moving dads), lightweight strollers that fold up and easy to carry
and perfect for on an airplane, strollers that recline, and more.

What if I Have Twins or Children Close in Age?
When you've got two handfuls instead of just one, you'll definitely want a double stroller.
There are two types: side by side (the Graco DuoRider® double stroller) and back-to-front
(the Graco DuoGlider® double stroller). Many moms like the side by side because it gives
their little ones a chance to look at each other (but also - watch out! - a chance to pull hair!)
but the back-to-front model makes it easier to navigate through tight spaces in supermarkets,
stores, and other hard-to-navigate spots.
In the back-to-front models, look for stadium seating, where one seat is placed higher than the
other. This gives the baby in the back seat something to look at besides their brother or sister's
head, and makes getting both children in and out of the stroller easier. Plus our SnugRide infant
seats are compatible with our DuoGlider double strollers!
