Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

Both of my kids were out of the stroller by age three, but I did pull it out to take it to Disneyland when DD was 3 1/2. It would have been too much for her to walk all day long and frankly, if we were going now at 4 1/2 I would have been tempted to pull it out for that type of trip now too.

I have 3.5 year old twins who we do let walk and give more freedom to now as well as a 2 year old. But all three still sit in the stroller.

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

My oldest is. 4 and we have a double stroller sit n stand. She won't sit in the front but loves to stand on the back when she gets tired of walking.

My 2 yr old hates the stroller but I just strap her in because she is a runner no way can I let her walk! She will have to stay in the stroller until at least 5 Chat Icon

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

Once in a blue moon or everyday? My girls were done around 2.5 for everyday maybe younger. But they were never big stroller kids. I used it to corral for errands.

I kept it around longer for me to take long walks so maybe 3. But I did pull it out for things like the bronx zoo bc of all the walking. We also rent for disney.

DS was 3.5 (last fall)
DD was almost 2 (she's a great walker).

That's the last time I remember using a stroller... we did get a lot of use of our double with DD being 3 months- 2.

We cut them both off at the same time...

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

My DD is 5.5 and still likes to sit in the stroller when she's tired but I think it's because she likes the novelty of the Sit n a Stand double stroller.

By the time she was 4 we really only used her stroller for vacations, day trips, etc. When my DS was around 10 months old we got the double stroller and honestly, I'm glad she still likes the stroller. Makes my life easier. LOL

My DS is 4 1/2 and will still get in it for long trips (zoo, Disney, etc) and for walks. Otherwise, he stopped using the stroller between 2 1/2-3.

We don't use it for errands at 2 1/2, we use it for trips and for neighborhood walk/runs.

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

Guess I'm the exception. I would say by 18 months we were done. DS was too big and uncomfortable and he loves walking.

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

DS1 was barely using it but 2.5 and was completely done by 3.
DS2 was 95% done by 2.5yo. We went to hershey for 2 days in May and didnt use a stroller (DS2 was 3yo) because he refused to sit in it.

A place like Disney I would still probably bring it because the kids get tired after multiple days of so much walking.

At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

I took her to San Fran and left the stroller at home this summer. She's 5. She was tired here and there (hello it *IS* San Fran and we did walk a lot) but she held up.

I am hoping it's retired.

She was 'done' with it by a little past 18m. Once she could walk, the stroller wouldn't do. We used it to hold our stuff and let her sleep, but really she walked everywhere. We continued to use it for Disney and trips but really, it was for us to maneuver her around easier. She never tried to get out of her stroller so it was a great way to lock her down.

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

Mine are 3 and 5 and I still use the double stroller regularly -
Mall, zoo, Disneywold. Anywhere we're going to be out and walking for a long period of time, or, I need to keep them contained to get something done ........they'll sit.
As long as they will, I don't care Chat Icon

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

Wow. Don't judge but my oldest was 6 at Disney and loved the stroller. She sat in it and was pushed all over.

I do not use it on a reg basis, though. Even the little one, 4, doesn't need it.

2.5-3. She's always hated the stroller even as a baby. I do keep it in case we do Disney or the like.

My DD is almost 3 and I take her on a mile-mile and half walk every morning--she has to sit in her stroller or it would take me 4 hours!

We are going to Disney later this year and my DD will be 6. We are bringing the double stroller because there is NO way she will be able to walk alllllll day like that without needing to chill.

So.......no judgement here. The stroller is still a godsend in my world. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Same. As long as they fit and like going in it, we will continue to use it.

I think age 6 may be our limit because DS won't fit. He is borderline too big now.

Re: At what age was your child completely done with the stroller

DD1 is 3.5 and I still use it when I take both kids out to the mall, pool, or for a walk. When it's just my older daughter and I, she walks.
