My son is 3 and 1/2 and he is very tall (about 3'7"). I need recommendations on a stroller that is good for jogging and for Disney trips. We had thought about a stroller wagon but they're technically prohibited at Disneyland. All the others we've looked at don't work for his height. Any suggestions?

Finding the right stroller for a tall 3-year-old with autism can definitely be a challenge, especially with the added requirements of jogging capability and Disney park use. While this isn't directly an autism-specific topic, sensory comfort and safety are important considerations for kids on the spectrum when choosing a stroller.

Here are some options worth looking into:

- Thule Urban Glide 2 – Great for jogging, has a higher weight/height capacity, and is park-friendly
- BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 – A popular jogging stroller with generous sizing and a smooth ride, which can help with sensory sensitivities
- Joovy Zoom 360 – Another jogging option with a larger seat that accommodates taller kids
- Special Tomato Jogger – Specifically designed for children with special needs, offering extra support and comfort
- Convaid Cruiser – Designed for children with special needs, highly adjustable, and very durable

For Disney specifically, make sure to check the current stroller size policy (no larger than 31" x 52"). The BOB and Thule generally fit within those guidelines.

It may also be worth looking at adaptive or special needs strollers, as they tend to accommodate taller and heavier children while offering additional sensory support features.
