Best Stroller and Boogie Board combo

OK! I have been promising to answer the last great unsolved question on the internet…and here it is:

What is the best stroller board and stroller combination to buy for a family that uses Graco Saferide carseats and needs a stroller board that can hold a preschooler who weighs over 40 pounds?

The answer is: A Kolcraft Contours Options 4 wheeler stroller and a Lascal Kiddyboard!

I finally have this whole thing figured out. I have it all assembled and its great. The Kolcraft stroller fits Graco carseats, so we can re-use the ones from the twins. Also, the Stroller has a strong rear axle to hold the stroller board (boogie board). The stroller does not have a parents snack tray, it has a cup holder that sits to the outside of the stroller, thereby allowing the preschooler to stand * in front* of the stroller handle (closer to the stroller seat) and lean back on the curved handle for safety and comfort. Also, the Lascal Kiddyboard, even though it says it only holds 44 lbs on Amazon, really holds 66 lbs, per the Lascal customer service department. Done and done!

I cannot wait to try it out. I have given Pookie and Geetle rides around the dining room. They seem to like it. The only thing is that we *might* have to put a counterweight in the front of the stroller, in the basket. I think the fact that we were wheeling around on carpet was probably what threw the balance off, but if not, we will just use a counter weight. A 5 lb dumbbell ought to do it.

So, there you go. I get alot of search traffic on this topic, and I did ALOT of research myself before I bought my items. So, I am glad to provide this important public service information.
