[quote=Anonymous]We have 2 kids - DD is 5 and DS is 2. Anytime we go out, we bring one airplane stroller as a travel aide - either for our bags and coats, or for the 2 yo. And we expect the 5 yo to walk. The problem is that the 5 yo would rather be pushed in the stroller while my husband carries the 2 yo. We’re not going on huge hikes, just short walks that would take an adult 10-20 minutes. DD is a somewhat volatile kid and this is one of her trigger points. She’ll throw a tantrum and refuse to go anywhere, or wail the whole way, or walk so slowly that it isn’t worth going. Needless to say, this ruins the whole excursion. How can I make her walk?? I’ve trying empathizing - “You wish you could ride in the stroller etc.” and trying to make the walk fun “Let’s find some red leaves!” But it often doesn’t work. [/quote]
