About Baby Products: Stroll In Style

Newborns

Infants 3-12 Mos.

Toddlers 1-4 Yrs.



From Heather Corley, your Guide to Baby Products
If you do very much walking with your baby, a stroller is a must-have item. Since strollers come in so many shapes, sizes and colors, it can be hard to choose just one. In fact, lots of parents, myself included, end up with several strollers to fit various needs.

Top Lightweight Strollers
Once you've graduated from the travel system, you'll probably be looking for a stroller that weighs less and maneuvers very well. Lightweight strollers come in many styles, and they're very convenient for zipping around town. Here are some great lightweight strollers to try out.

8 Strollers Under $250
Need a fantastic stroller that doesn't cost more than your rent? These strollers have plenty of convenience features but cost less than $250.

Buying a Used Stroller
Strollers have increased in price in recent years, and the cost is still going up. Expect to spend around $300 for a good-quality stroller with lots of features. If you want all of the flash for less cash, though, you may be able to find a sweet deal on a good-quality used stroller.

Stroller Frames for Baby
If you want the convenience of a travel system but don't want to haul around a full-size stroller, a stroller frame may be perfect. Stroller frames don't have a built-in seat, so you just snap the infant car seat on and head out for adventure.

An auxiliary verb is a conjugated verb used in front of another verb in compound tenses in order to help form the mood and tense of the verb. French verbs are classified by which auxiliary verb they take. Most French verbs use avoir, so you need to memorize this list of verbs that require être.
