apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

This is really lovely and stylish. And as Babygadget says, it may last a generation or two. But my concern is how it will fare at the playground. We bring my son's doll stroller to the playground not just for him but because we know that he will take someone else's toy, so there is quid pro quo. I call it our offering to the playground gods. I've seen other parents bring nice, handsome wood push toys to the playground, and they cringe every time another kid grabs it and rams it into the concrete plant beds.

We got our stroller in our building's garbage area - someone else threw it away because the seat was ripped and wouldn't stay on. B doesn't care that there is no seat and none of the other kids that play with it at the playground care either. It was $0 and is perfect. Also, because it is the "Naked Green Stroller" it is easier to spot when it is time to leave.

This stroller doesn't turn very easily, which made me daugher abandone it for a TRU $5 one. Maybe when her motor skills get better she will go back to it, but it doesn't work well for toddlers.
