pram buggy board V double buggy

i have already posted before about a double buggy, im still trying to work out whether it would be better to get a double buggy or try the buggy board.
ben will be 27 months when bub is born, and i think he may like the buggy board rather than be in the pram.
All im thinking is if we out all day and both need to nap, where would ben sleep, but i guess as he gets older he will cut his nap out anyway.

What do other parents think who have 2 children of a similar age. Obviously a pram is easier as the child cant get out, do you strap them to a buggy board or can they get off?

I really dont know which one will be easier, and 2 days a week ben is in childcare anyway so i wouldnt need it those days, im just thinkin it may be a waste of money to buy a double buggy, and a buggy board is much cheaper, and i would think more fun for a toddler.

It really depends on what you will be using the pram for...if you are just looking at using it for a quick pop out to the shops, then a board would prob be ideal (and no, you dont strap them in, they can step off easily). But if you are looking to take walks with the kids, a double pram is recommended. We are facing the same prob (ds will just be 3 tho), and because we plan to take walks, we are looking for a double jogging pram (easier said than done as I want a tandem one, not side by side one). So yeah, I would assess what you would be needing it for and going from there. Hope that helps??

Oh, and ds is currently 33 months and still naps sometimes in his stroller, so dont assume that Ben will be cutting out his naps that quickly, haha...
