What pushchair suits a 2 year old?
Short answer: Choose one whose maximum weight covers your toddler, with a comfortable upright seat and a fold that suits your car and home. Check the product's limits.
Here is the detail behind that answer, taken from current UK guidance from the NHS and the Lullaby Trust.
Things to check
- Check the minimum age for the seat and how far it reclines.
- Try the fold, the weight and the basket size.
- Look at the wheels and suspension for your usual routes.
What the guidance says
- It is fine for a baby to fall asleep in a car seat while you travel, but take them out as soon as you arrive.
