Having a baby is a special joy for parents. And it increases when the family finds out that two babies should be born at once. However, with the birth of children, worries also increase. One of the typical problems is the purchase of a stroller for twins.
Reviews of many parents indicate some difficulties when choosing this vehicle for children.
Today on the market there is a large selection of baby products from various well-known companies that sell baby strollers for twins - transformers, summer and winter models.
The choice of means for moving children comes down to determining its design. The most common are three options: a transforming variety, with the arrangement of seats one after another or side by side.
In the latter case, both kids will be equally well able to see the whole path that parents make during a walk. Children can also behave differently: one of them can sleep, and the second will play at this time, while he will not be able to interfere with his sister or brother. Double strollers with seat arrangement side by side have the disadvantage of product width. They are difficult to place in the elevator, and such equipment is unlikely to enter public transport. It will be inconvenient to transport it in the car.
Tandems, or baby carriages for twins, in which the seats are located one after another, are deprived of this drawback. They have a more elaborate folding mechanism. However, the child sitting in the back will not be able to see clearly what is being done in front, and this often leads to irritability and anxiety of the child.
To avoid this drawback allows the purchase of a tandem in which the front seat is lower than the rear. There are also varieties of prams in which children can sit facing each other. The advantage of these products is the simplicity of their passage even into narrow doorways.
Some baby strollers for twins in their design have swivel cradles, which allows you to turn the children facing each other during a stop. They will be able to play or chat together.
Transforming stroller models for twins are convenient when, in addition to twins, the family has another child. In this case, you can easily substitute another seat, and a multi-seat crew for walks will be able to hit the road. The disadvantage of these products is their high weight and poor maneuverability.
When choosing baby strollers for twins, you should pay attention to the maximum permissible mass of children transported, and in no case exceed this limit.
In addition, the products must have various devices that provide some additional convenience. The stroller should have a handle that allows you to adjust the height, a trunk in which you can put two sets of replaceable clothes, toys or your mother’s bag. It is advisable that the stroller has a visor, a rain cover, an apron for the legs and a mosquito net. The wheels of the product must be large and wide: this will add stability, patency and reliability to the stroller, which is very important for large models. Mandatory is the presence of shock absorbers.
