Unfortunately, in winter our roads can not please the ideal evenness and well-groomed. That's the problem for young mothers, how to walk with the baby, without getting bogged down in the drifts. As you know, there are no unsolvable problems. A real wand-help in this situation is a children's sled, a wheelchair with wheels. What is it, how to choose them and which sled is better - look for answers in our article.
What is a wheelchair?
A sled is a hybrid of a stroller and sled. From the carriage they took comfort:
- high seating, the back of which in most models can be translated and in a recumbent position;
- hood;
- raincoat ;
- insulated canopy on the legs;
- a spacious bag or pocket for the mother;
- seat belts;
- comfortable high handle.
But unlike the usual stroller, the bottom is not a chassis with wheels, and sleigh rails. Currently, sledges are produced in a huge range, and each family can choose the best model for their budget - from basic budget to glamorous, with many accessories. Up to what age can you use a sled? As in a normal stroller, in a wheelchair you can carry the baby to about three to four years. But the most relevant will be a similar acquisition for a one-year-old baby. It is at this age that the child is already old enough to look at the world with interest for a long time, and still small enough to sleep while walking. It is in case of sleep that the backrest reclining up to the horizontal position and the canopy on the legs are useful. And since many kids react poorly to the walk, when the mother disappears from their field of vision, there are also models of wheelchair-carrying carriages with a handle.
Wheelchair with wheelchair
Most models of wheelchair carriages are also equipped with small plastic wheels that are located at the ends of the runners. Thanks to these wheels, moms will not have problems with overcoming cleared road sections or thawed patches. Now they do not have to put the child out of the sledges or with great effort dragging the sled-buggy along the bare asphalt. In order to overcome this obstacle, it will be enough to simply reject the wheelchair back, thus using the wheels.
Sledge-stroller with large wheels
In addition to the usual models of wheelchair, equipped with small wheels, models with large wheels are also on the market. Wheels of large diameter along with the small weight of sledges make the sled-wheelchair from the usual vehicle into a real all-terrain vehicle, because they are not afraid of high curbs or deep snowdrifts. Produce such a sledge-wheelchair in Nizhny Novgorod.
Another type of sled-wheelchair with large wheels - it's a car. In this model, not just large wheels, there is already the possibility of installing a full wheelbase. That is, in autumn and spring, this model can be used as a regular stroller, and in the winter time - as a sled.

Wheelchair: precautionary measures
With all the indisputable advantages of a sleigh carriage, parents should also remember some of their features. Firstly, the wheelchair does not have sufficient stability, so you can not ride a child from the hill. Secondly, the brake in them, too, is not provided, therefore, without supervision of the baby in them, you should not leave it in any case.
