Help with finding strollers for kids over 50 lbs.?

Question

I have a son that is as tall and weighs as much as a 6 year old. The problem is that he's 3. I need to be able to walk for exercise and sometimes he gets worn out at the mall, zoo, and always when I power walk. All I can find are strollers for up to 50 lbs everywhere! I have looked on Amazon, Shopzilla, Ebay, Overstock and googled it.....nothing. I have seen, once, a place that had jogging strollers for up to 90 lbs. I don't remember where that place was it was online though. My son has tired legs. Help us please.

My son is by no means overweight. I am careful about that. He is tall and his weight is at 47 lbs. but he is still a 3 year old little boy. He gets tired.

Answer 1

You can get the jogging stroler ( they go up to 95, I think) at stores w. sporting goods like SportsAuthority, etc. It's gonna cost you around 90 $, so be ready.

Answer 2

Wow and I thought I had a big boy =)

I found the same problem even the ones that did past 50 pounds are pretty hard to push and if you kids leans to one side it just about tips over.

I had to get a jogging stroller. Even then I found ones that weren't able to handle a tall child with big feet.
Make sure they have room to rest their feet and their head doesn't pass the back support

I know they aren't easiest to fold up but a Jogging stroller will help save your back when pushing him around.

Good Luck

Answer 3

Just because a child weighs more than usual children the same age doesn't mean that he is fat and the mother is giving him sweets. Our cousin's little boy is 3 almost 4 and he is so much taller and heavier than my 4 year old and he is not fat.

Good luck on finding your stroller, I know what it is like to have a child with "tired legs".

Answer 4

Check Burlington Coat Factory's Baby Depot... You can browse online or check in local stores if you have one. But they often have great deals on the strollers.

Good Luck.
