Trends for Kids Strollers

The perfect stroller for your PYT?

Bypass the confusion with TFK.

Trends for Kids — a line of sporty German strollers available for the first time in D.C. — is the latest must-have.

Choose from single joggers, a double jogger, or a compact buggy. The joggers have bicycle-style hand brakes; all have smooth suspensions, reclining ergonomic seats, reflective stitching, and fold up in a snap.

We especially like the adjustable footrests (good for strolling naps), easy steering (perfect for store aisles), washable fabric, extra sun protection, and a fun skateboard add-on for gnarly parents.

Get one before they’re gone.

Wouldn’t want to be SOL.

Available at Pink & Brown, 1212 King Street, Alexandria (703-684-1050 or pinkandbrownboutique.com). To see styles, go to trendsforkids.com.
