I rarely ever go anywhere. I live too far to actually walk to anything and walking down a gravel road isn't that much fun for anyone. I only go on outings a few times a year depending on when kids are on holidays because I only have room for 2 car seats in my vehicle. My parents don't care, they know we go outside 2x a day and I have a large yard with tons of toys for the kids to play on/with.

I agree that the kids would likely be happier to just play in the back yard instead of having to sit in the stroller.
