[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some kids like being pushed around, especially when the weather is hot.

They get to sit down, canopied from the sun + totally relax.

Who could blame them...??!

Exactly.

My rule of thumb is no strollers after walking, and I carry toddlers who aren’t capable of full distances yet, but who need to walk at least part way.  However, my 5 year old charge was in a stroller part of the time today, because we spent 6 hours at the zoo in the oppressive heat, saw every exhibit, and he was still in a relatively good mood when we left.  I have asthma, and my trouble breathing with a heavy backpack was just as much of a factor in renting the stroller as his disinterest in walking (although he spent at least as much time out of the stroller as in, thank goodness!).  Because we don’t use strollers most of the time, it didn’t cross his mind to ask for one; instead, within 15 minutes of arriving, he wanted to go home!  Add in that he has special needs (emotional/behavioral) which already started to be an issue, and it was fine with me for this one excursion.  We’ve been walking 1-5 miles twice per week while going around to the museums for a month now, and this is the first he’s EVER ridden in a stroller with me.[/quote]
