Baby Trend Double Baby Jogging Stroller – A Boon to Mothers

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Having two children can be draining for busy mothers, what with all the diaper changes, feedings, and play times. When they aren’t cooing or playing, babies, as well as mothers, love to experience the great outdoors. One of the best ways to spend time with your child, and get exercise, is the Baby Trend double baby jogging stroller. Exercise is important to a new mother, which is why Baby Trend has created the double baby jogging stroller. Now you’ll no longer need to spend twice the time, going to and from your house to collect your kids. Go for jogs in the park or around the block, and let both kids take in the sights and sounds.

A Baby Trend double baby jogging stroller is just that – two strollers in one. Both children are seated comfortably in a hammock like cradle. Fused together, these hammocks are safely and securely sewn to a strong but lightweight metal frame. Handlebars on either side are cushioned with thick, soft foam to ensure Mom’s comfort during long jogs. Heavy-duty plastic wheels are doubled to ensure stability.

Seat belts are a must, in the event of sudden stops. Belts come in two varieties: Parachute and single-belt styles. The parachute belts, are so called because they’re smaller versions of ones used by parachuters and sky-divers. They’re shaped like underwear, with straps wrapping between the legs, and a large belt across the stomach. Like a harness, you slip your baby into this safety belt.

Single belts stretch across the tummy, buckling at the other side. Some double baby jogging strollers feature interchangeable belts and are much stronger. Changing these belts can be complicated and difficult, so it’s best that you choose a double baby jogging stroller with permanent belts.

Even when you can rest assured your little one will be safe on his adventures, some days may be inclement. Here’s where sun-shielding hoods and rain blocking tarps come in handy. For hot days, when the sun beats down on little heads, there is the double baby jogging stroller hood. It’s similar to porch and house awnings . Made of nylon and water resistant, the hood attaches to the handlebars of the Baby Trend double baby jogging stroller. Covering baby’s sensitive skin, this feature also comes in handy for rainy days.

Even with a hood, children can still get soaked from oncoming raining. Clear, plastic tarps have been designed to protect babies from potential colds. A specially designed rain tarp is attached to the stroller hood, and is stretched down to the foot board of the double baby jogging stroller. The sides of the tarp are breathable, water resistant nylon netting, allowing fresh air to circulate to your babies. Never buy double baby jogging strollers second hand. They may have defects, or not be up to current standards. The same goes for things like rain tarps, hoods, or seat belts. As you probably already know, always put on the safety brake located near the wheels when you’re stationary.

Baby Stroller Features to Consider Before Buying

Saturday, May 9th, 2009

Purchasing a baby stroller is as an important decision as purchasing a crib or a car seat. There are so many choices to choose from and each baby stroller holds a multitude of features.

Purchasing a baby stroller is as an important decision as purchasing a crib or a car seat. There are so many choices to choose from and each baby stroller holds a multitude of features. They also range in prices from inexpensive to expensive which is why it is important to choose the right stroller from the start. While staying within a budget is important, you may be better off spending a little more for a baby stroller up front, rather than buying a cheap stroller and having it break after a couple of months.

The most important features to consider when buying a stroller are the safety features. Buying a new stroller makes it easier to check for various safety features required in baby strollers. First off check that the stroller has an adequate breaking system. Also be sure that the proper safety harness is in place (usually a 5 point safety harness) and check that there is a crotch strap as well. A crotch strap will prevent your baby from sliding out of the stroller.

Other features which are not critical but help are things like adjustable handles. You are more than likely not the only person who will be pushing the stroller so adjustable handles are very helpful. You may also want to consider a stroller made from washable material or has Scotchguard protection to limit staining. Newer model strollers are usually built with stain guard fabrics.

Storage space is also a plus in a good stroller. You will need to have space for things such as a diaper bag, baby formula, as well as having room to carry any extra bags. After storage space consideration, your next feature check is how well will your stroller store? You will want one that will fold easily and open easily because you will be moving that stroller in and out of the car or storing it in a closet, etc. The last thing you want to be doing is fighting with a stroller every time you need to use it or put it away.

If you are an active parent, you may consider the jogging stroller. Jogging strollers are great for the mom or dad who wants to get in their exercise with their baby. The only downside to these strollers are that they are usually not made for carrying extra bags and are generally not lightweight. Another issue is they are not recommended for newborns. If you are into exercising, you are probably better off purchasing two separate strollers, one for daily use and one for jogging or running.

What it boils down to is the features that you will need on a regular basis. Safety features go without saying but some parents need more storage in there strollers where as some parents rather have a lighter weight stroller that is easy to store. It may help to write down the features you are looking for in a stroller and then researching particular brands to see which one fits your needs best.
