Back in 2005 I purchased the Bugaboo Frog for my first child. It was at the time that the Bugaboo Camelion and Gecko was due to be released however, I made sure that I reserved the pram early in order to get the frog as I believed it was a far superior pushchair, for the same price. I wasn't wrong. The Frog is now on its second child, and still looks as good as new. It is regularly commented on in the playground and many people are surprised when I tell them its age!

The Bugaboo Frog is an early pushchair from the Bugaboo range. Although it has now been replaced by the Camelion as its equivalent, it is still available from ebay and to order in from europe and the USA. It was an expensive pushchair, costing over £700 however, I believe that I have had my monies worth. WHile many friends thought I was crazy to spend that amount, they have then gone on to having 3-4 pushchairs in the lifetime of one child, spending in total well over the £700 I spent. I have then gone on to using this for my second child expanding its usefulness and its value.

The frog itself has a pram, with a carrycot. This can be used in the pram or as a moses basket, on a seperate stand (make sure to buy a suitable matress if a baby is going to sleep in the pram). When the baby reaches 4-6 months, you can then have the baby in a rearwood facing stroller so that they can have eye contact with you, as they get older the stroller can face forwards to the outside world. It has 2 large back wheels and 2 smaller ones. When going over rough terrain (or whenliving in a city) the big wheels go at the front, helping you to go over bumps and kerbs.

YOu can buy many accessories for the Bugaboo. We have the clips to enable you to use infant carseat with it, the travelbag and footmuff.

The only downside to it is occasionally muck, mud and other unspeakable stuff gets stuck in the big pram tyres however, I think this is a downside to anything that goes down our dirty pavements!
