FAQ About Baby Sled
A baby sled is not meant for sledding, but serves as a stroller replacement when it snows. Baby sleds should be sturdy and usually have a canopy and a warm footmuff. This allows you to spend great days outdoors without the baby getting cold or the stroller getting stuck or sliding in the snow.
Which baby sled comes into question is individual. Sliding variants have the advantage that you can see the child all the time. The GagaDumi metal sled with backrest, push bar and footmuff from our product recommendations belongs to these models.
Baby sleds can usually be either pushed or pulled. Some sleds therefore have a corresponding rod or cord, which makes pulling easier. The handle should also fit comfortably in the hand and, in the best case, be padded. As a rule, they are also height-adjustable and can be adjusted to your body size.
There are different models, which are suitable only from one year. Others can be used after 6 months without hesitation. The basic prerequisite is that your child can already sit independently for a longer period of time. If this is not yet possible, you should wait a little longer before using the baby sled, otherwise your baby may fall off and injure himself.
Depending on the material, you can load the baby sled differently. Therefore, you should always read the manufacturer’s specifications first. Some models are only designed for 20 kilograms, others even for 50 or 100 kilograms. So if you want to sit together with your child on the sled, you should choose a more resilient baby sled.
A baby sled should always have a backrest, because your baby can sit comfortably on the sled for a long time. So that your child does not freeze in the long run, you should wrap it as warmly as possible. In addition to cozy winter clothing, a footmuff is also an advantage. Some of these models also have an integrated hood, so that your child is protected all around. It is also practical if the sled can be folded or collapsed. So you can easily transport it in the car.
The baby sled can weigh between 1 and 10 kilograms. It should not be too heavy, so that you can easily transport it.
Many baby sleds are made of wood, which is very durable and robust. It can withstand the cold and snow well and can be used for many years if handled well. However, you can also buy models made of plastic or metal.
