1 Trend, 3 Ways: Mini Doll Strollers

Veteran mini mommy Suri Cruise (with Corolle‘s Mon Premier Stroller on Aug. 6) is still going strong when it comes to her baby doll duties, but the trendsetter has been joined by two new little ladies — Billie Dane (with Lil Tots‘ Doll Stroller on Sept. 13) and Tabitha Broderick (with Graco‘s Umbrella Stroller on Sept. 30) — who were recently spotted pushing their own sets of wheels around town.

Tabitha is so precious!

All 3 little girls are adorable and I think doll strollers are so sweet.

I wouldn’t spend $290 on a doll stroller though, and personally I don’t really like that stroller. It isn’t very feminine (most little girls like pink and frilly doll strollers, I know that I did as a child) and is very modern looking. No doubt it is well made though, so I’m sure it’s great for people who like it. The other options are both nice. I love Suri’s doll and stroller- they are adorable!

My 23 month old daughter has the pink and black Graco stroller that Tabitha is pushing….she loves it. Only about $15 at Toys r Us.

When my daughter was a toddler we bought the whole Graco doll set that included the stroller and connecting carrier, the playpen, and some other accessories. It was so life-like an adorable. At nine she still plays with it. I can’t imagine it costing that much though.

Tabitha is so stinking adorable! She is such a little doll baby!

- Tee on October 5th, 2011

Tabitha is the cutest baby I’ve seen on these pages. My son loved pushing a doll stroller too and he would’ve loved the splurge model.

Could Tabitha be any cuter? She’s precious!

Oh great. Another thing for little kids to trip me with when I’m trying to shop or walk on public sidewalks.

suri is too young for most things she likes,now for a doll stroller, she seems too old. maybe it’s just me

- ang on October 5th, 2011

Ang-Suri’s like 5 or 6, what should she be playing with now? Video games, iPods, what? I had dolls until I was 10, as did all my friends and cousins. Granted I didn’t take them outside in a stroller after I was about 7, but still.

Nice trolling, Nicole.

Since when is a child playing with a doll considered to be a “trend?” This website is starting to creep me out a little bit. At first it was the ridiculous comments that are allowed about several kids’ looks, but now this turning innocent children into trendsetters thing is kind of weird, too.

I don’t visit here as much as I used to and I do think I’ll cut back even more. Make of the parents and follow their trends all you want – they asked for it – but turning babies into a sideshow is not my cup of tea.

- Sarah on October 5th, 2011

Sarah, that was my thought too. A doll stroller as a trend?? Really? I had one back in the early 80s, along with a lot of other children in the last 30 years…

- Grace2 on October 5th, 2011

Tabitha is sooo adorably cute! Matthew’s eyes for sure…

- Sarah S. on October 6th, 2011

Awwwwwww love little Tabitha, soooo cute

- Ashley on October 6th, 2011

Its just you ang. Suri is 5 years old, that is in no way too old to push a doll stroller! She is so young, what do you think 5 year old girls play with?

- Holiday on October 6th, 2011

Do “trends” generally last for over a century? Victorian little girls had prams for their dolls. This is hardly new.
