Umbrella Stroller Connectors – Twins turn into singletons

Umbrella Stroller Connectors magically turn twins into singletons, and then back into twins again.
Parents of twins, triplets, or more often become experts on the best stroller to buy. Over the years, I’ve used many different types of strollers. And I have to say, one of my absolute favorites is the simple, single, umbrella stroller.
I always kept two single umbrella strollers in the back of my van. But, these little strollers need extra equipment to make them really the cat’s meow of strollers – stroller connectors. 
Umbrella stroller connectors are little clips that you use to hook two (or more) umbrella strollers together. If you’ve ever tried stroller connectors, you may have found it cumbersome to push the strollers because they will crash together if you try to grasp the outermost handle from each stroller. The magic trick with using the stroller connectors, is to just push one of the strollers and let the other stroller trailer behind the first stroller.
Umbrella strollers and stroller connectors are the only way to go when traveling with twins or more. These are most convenient for airports and crowded tourist areas. When you’re with another adult, you can split the two strollers and go separate ways. Later, when you reunite with your travel companion, you can reconnect the strollers.
Or, are you simply tired of all the “Are they twins?” questions? Simply have each adult push a separate stroller and the questions quickly subside to a dull roll.
Umbrella strollers with connectors are a must have for traveling with twins, for convienience (lightweight, always having a stroller in your vehicle), and to short circuit all the twins / multiples questions. I highly recommend them.

[...] I'm not sure where you'd get them there- but these clips are pretty handy, turns two umbrella strollers into one twin stroller! I picked up my umbrella strollers for around $20 dollars each http://www.twinparenthood.com/2009/1…ler-connector/ [...]



Where do you buy the connectors for the umbrella strollers to turn them into a twin stroller?
I bought mine at our local twins / multiples group semi-annual consignment sale. I know you can also search online for “stroller connectors”. Good Luck.

I never had any trouble fitting through doorways with the connectors. Best, Kat.
