I had to smile when I saw this toy stroller because it looks so much like one of our real strollers.  Unfortunately, we already have so many strollers (toy and real), that I don’t think I can buy any more of any variety for a while.

What I love about the Pottery Barn Toy Pram, apart from its resemblance to my Peg Culla , is that it looks very sturdy.  The way my daughter runs around with her toy strollers, I’m always afraid that she will flip over.  With its wide wheel base, I don’t think this one is likely to tip.  I also think it would make a great place to store dolls when they aren’t in use. Kids are sure to be drawn to this toy because it looks so much like a real one.

The stroller is designed to hold dolls up to 19 inches, and the handle adjusts to grow with your child.  It would make a wonderful gift.  You can buy one for $69 at Potterybarnkids.com.

Every stroller needs a take-along toy bar, so you can keep your baby entertained without worrying about toys being dropped (or thrown) as you walk. I have grown a bit bored with our collection of stroller toys, especially since most of them are a bit loud and obnoxious. That is part of the reason that I am drawn to this understated toy.

Made out of soft fabric, the People Pram Cord by Esthex offers fun on the go without a lot of annoying bells and whistles. I love the simple design, which resembles a chain of paper dolls. The toy makes a pleasant rattle as the child plays. You will appreciate this toy’s simplicity, and it will look elegant on your stroller.

I bought this for my younger daughter for her first birthday, and it has turned out to be a wonderful investment. She loved it from the moment she saw it. At first, she just wanted to sit in it. Then, she figured out how to take her toys for a ride in it. Now she likes to persuade her older sister to give her rides in it. Luckily, it is very sturdy. I also took this as a prop when she had one-year photos taken. Those pictures are some of my all time favorites. I talked about this toy so much that several of my friends have now purchased it, and they love it too. As with everything from Haba, you can be confident that this toy is well-made and completely free of toxins. We actually have the unpainted version, but I love this new and more feminine design. You can buy one for $154.99 at oompatoys.com.
