Shopping with a Pushchair – A vital part of your baby travel system

With a new baby in the family you won’t often have the luxury of shopping by yourself.

Most of the time you’ll have at least one other little person with you who will have to be pushed around the shops in a comfy, safe and warm way – you don’t want an uncomfortable baby on your hands when you’re shopping, do you?

It would pay to be mindful of this extra body and all the stuff required when you’re looking for your pushchair or baby travel system.

The high street is full of babies being pushed around in pushchairs with loads of bags hanging off the handles – that’s not safe at all.

Many of the largest pushchairs and most prams will allow for a couple of bags to be hung from the push handles but it’s not recommended.

Most shopping trips need more than a couple of light bags so it’s not particularly practical either.

Lots of the current pushchair models have some built-in storage beneath the seat.

Storage difficult to use

That space can be quite difficult to access though, mostly if you’ve got the car seat on the pushchair.

So that can result in the much-needed spaces being almost unusable for 6 months or so.

Sometimes parents have to be more imaginative while they are out and about with baby and, particularly if on foot, make more than one visit to the shops.

For some people this could be seen as inconvenient although for others its just something else to think about.

The most popular travel system with good, useable storage is the Quinny Buzz Travel System, why not take a look at it.

It’s quite obvious that both the pushchair and the car seat on the quinny buzz offer more space and build quality than many others.

As well as the quality and sturdiness, the buzz baby travel system also has an extra basket which you can attach to your pushchair to give extra storage, but it doesn’t limit the space your baby has.

The extra available storage is under the baby’s seat but it’s placed in such a way that it won’t affect your baby’s ride and it’s easy for you to get at.  Read more...
