Holiday Gift Guide | Step2 Canopy Cruise Wagon Strollers are good for so much time, and they serve their purpose well. So what do you do in between the stroller phase, and the period of them walking by themselves for an extended amount of time? My thoughts were to put them into a Step2 Canopy Cruise Wagon.

Ethan has recently started asking if he can use Mommy’s iPad. Because Mommy does not want to share her tablet, I was excited to let him try the vtech InnoTab 2.
