Can you still take walks with LO in the stroller?

We used to go on long walks all the time when DD was younger.  However, now that she's walking/running/being a daredevil she WILL NOT stay in her stroller for a walk.  She gets rammy and demands to get out and play.  I miss my walks with my baby :(

    Nope. We got DD a wagon for her B-day. It is so wonderful for walks! I just buckle her in and we are good to go. She can see so much more so she is a happy camper.

    We're still able to.  I try to either time it around her nap time or give her things to do (mini-magna doodle, books, snacks).

    DS loves to relax in his stroller during long walks. ?He's really good like that! ?I hope it doesn't change anytime soon...

    Our jogging stroller is collecting major dust. DS will go in the umbrella stroller at the zoo or amusement park in the parking lots, but that's about it. He'll ride in the wagon for walks sometimes, but prefers to walk or ride his bike.

    DS is at a stage where that is ALL he wants to do. If he sees the stroller he flips out until we put him in. Some days we can take super long walks and some days we cut them short due to him wanting out.

    Yes, but we usually tell her to look for trees, dogs, cats, kids, etc. to distract her.

    Medium length walks.  It is  too not for long walks.  We have both a stroller and a wagon.

    No, we can't go for long walks.  We usually walk to the park, and I let him play.  When he's bored/tired, I put him back in the stroller and we continue our walk.

    She'll tolerate a short-ish walk around the neighborhood (30 mins?) as long as she has some water and snacks. I haven't tried to go much longer than that because she gets really antsy.

    i run between 45-75 minutes every day with my babies. Two things that help are snacks (they love bagel thins w/ cream cheese and dried apple rings) as well as music. I stream a children's music station on my phone. I also give them a few toys (special toys that they can only have while running!), a book and their sippy.
