    sorry, can't help there. Maybe she will be able to make the walk, my ds did a long school walk from the age of three, then started to take his scooter to go faster!

    Sorry can't help.

    I have used about 3 different sorts of buggy boards over the years but personally can't stand them as they end up giving me backache!

    HI, i have got one of these for my 3 1/2 little girl. They are brillant for the kids to ride on but not so good for your back. You also feel like your bum sticks out a mile as the board sits back from the pushchair. Stops my little girl moaning about her legs aching though. They do seem to fit most pushchairs, try looking in the Argos book thats where i got mine from and they do come with two attachments for different buggies.

    I use one on the back of my single Maclaren and its fab. Only use it for a 2 year old though. the 3 & 4 year olds have to walk! Unfortunately it doesn't fit on my double so if you are going to get one make sure it will fit
