Single Stroller for Tall Kid 4 1/2

[emily_gracesmama]

What's the best stroller that's going to get me a few years for the 4 1/2 year old at places like Disney, Sesame Place etc. She's 40 lbs and prob 44 inches tall. I figure I may be looking at a Maclaren unless there's some new ones I have no clue about, needs to recline since she'll prob fall asleep in it at places like that. Haven't shopped strollers in several years!

Thanks ladies, mac here we come!

A Mac for sure.

Yeah, not many lightweight strollers will let you go past 40-45 lbs. Maclarens go up to 55. And I've heard they're the best for taller children.

If you're looking at all-terrain check out Mountain buggy urban, baby jogger city classic or elite, or maybe even BOB (it's debatable if this last one could hold a child that tall). These all go up to 75 lbs.

I haven't tried DD in Bob Revolution, but I have a friend whose son is just now 5 and a little taller than DD (40") and he still fits in the Bob. I know some people swear their kids outgrow them earlier than other brands, but I would just check in person if your child still fits.

We love our Maclaren Triumph and DD still has lots of room in it. At Disneyland I see all sorts of Macs all of the time with kids as large as 6 or 7 in them. At almost 4 DD will still sometimes sleep a bit at Disneyland if she is tired enough and our Mac has never failed us. It's fold is a great asset for the trams!
