Versatile 3 in 1 Prams
Making use of the versatile 3 in 1 prams is a wise decision, especially if you are a parent who constantly needs to move your baby from the car or any other vehicle to the school and then for shopping all in the same day. This pram is made of a carrycot, a detached pushchair and a child car seat. This carrycot is good for sleeping overnight provided you make use of a safety mattress from the birth of your child to say six months thereafter.
Carrycots and car seats of this pram can slide onto the chassis to replace normal seats; while other types can clip on or maybe fastened on using Velcro over the usual seats. 3 in 1 prams fall under the category of what is referred to as travel systems. As the name implies, this type of baby cot is designed to meet the need of parents that are almost always mobile and who need to take their babies with them as they go places.
These prams are designed in such a way as to reduce the disturbance that will usually occur as you move your baby from your home to the car and back. The pushchair item often comes with a flexible footrest and a reclining back rest. It may be used facing you or facing away from you depending on its design.
Other benefits of 3 in 1 prams include: first, it offers a cheaper option of getting all the items included in the package and secondly, some of them are suitable with some car seats.
Now if you have twin babies or toddlers, who are separated in age by about 12 to 13 months or more, then you should get a double pushchair or tandem pushchair if you will constantly need to take them out with you.
What should determine the particular type of twin pushchair (double or tandem) you will get is whether or not your children get along fine. If they do you can get them a double pushchair, which has the two seats made side by side each other.
Otherwise it will be better to get a tandem pushchair that has seating arrangement of one seat in front of the other. This way your babies will not be able to see each other as it is in the double pushchair, thereby preventing any trouble that may occur between them if they do not get along well.
Having mentioned the benefits you can get from 3 in 1 prams, let me also say at this point that they equally have disadvantages; such as: the pushchair unit being a bit large oftentimes, which may prevent it from entering your vehicle; also these prams can take a lot of space in your home when not in use and thirdly, babies usually outgrow the child car seat and carrycot in less than 13 months.
