I'm looking for a sled for DS. One that we can pull him around in the yard. My only requirements right now are that it has a buckle to strap him in it's sturdy enough to last a couple of years. He's a big boy now anyway. There are a bunch on Amazon, but I was hoping for some feedback from the experts on here.
TIA!

Re: XP: Snowy weather moms - sled?
We got a plastic Pelican sled last year that came with a tent like top. DS is a moose, so he's pretty much outgrown it. I would like a wooden sled for toting him around, and then a plastic one for sliding...preferable one that can fit DH or myself too.
Oh and a buckle is a must, although you can buy straps that have buckles for sleighs that don't have them.
ETA: Thinking about the one we do have, I would also try find something that doesn't have a lot of empty space on the underside. Sure, your LO may be off the ground more, but snow tends to accumulate underneath it which just makes it more difficult to pull.

We have this one as well.
DD still fits in it. Here she is last year.
