I will soon be taking my 8 month old and 3 year old to nursery on foot each morning. I was going to get the baby jogger city mini as it is a good foldable buggy. My 3 year old is very happy to go on a buggy board. Is the city mini compatible with a buggy board?


Does anyone have any suggestions for a foldable buggy and board combo?

If you look on Lasacal's website it lists all the buggies their board can be used with and gives a rating of how compatible they are. Also shows how they attach.

You can use a buggy board with a mini city double so you should be fine with a single.

We used a board on the back of a maclaren quest for about 18 months. It's not ideal as you bash your shins from time to time and the weight distribution just isn't right, but you get used to it and the advantages of a small light buggy over a double wins every time for me. Also your 3 year old will probably only be on there intermittently so definitely better to have a small single with board than a clumsy double with an empty seat half the time.

I use the city mini with a Bumprider board. I think it's great as it sticks out the right amount for the child to stand behind the handle and is great going along ED's bumpy pavements. My other half, at 6 footish, finds it very difficult to stear as the whole shebang is quite long. It's getting quite heavy to push now daughter is a v tall 4 year old, but it is still handy to have for long journeys.
Thank you for this - I am just finding it hard to imagine the older child standing behind the handle bar (as with the chameleon they stand inside the handle bar and it extends). I thought maybe you had to have very long arms! I am going to john lewis to test a few I think! another buggy that has been recommended is the out n about nipper if anyone has experience of that with a buggy board?

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
