The Bugaboo Donkey is here! But you Bugaboo Cameleon fans have some good news too.

All the Bugaboo talk this week is about the new Bugaboo Donkey double stroller --that oddly-named, but coolly-designed single-to-double convertible stroller that our Editor-in-Chief Liz got a sneak peek at a few days ago at the US launch at New York's Giggle. Yes, it's a gorgeous, pricey, joy-inspiring feat of modern engineering. And we'll have a proper review coming out shortly, when we've had a chance to test it out ourselves and not just push it around a store floor for six seconds.

But there are some other, albeit smaller, Bugaboo developments, too. Especially for those of you Bug fans looking to save a little money.

 

They can be summed up in one word: color.


Four new Bugaboo Special Edition colors are rolling into baby stores this month, and the best part is, you don't have to buy a brand new stroller to enjoy the pretty spring shades. If your stroller needs an update for a second kid (or a fourth year), the canopies and bassinet aprons are available as accessories for your Bugaboo Cameleon and Bugaboo Bee. Find them in a bold purple, pale pink and spring-y tangerine, with a pretty light green as a Buy Buy Baby exclusive.

I love the idea of giving a stroller a simple and not-too-expensive makeover. And purple? Gorgeous. I'm better off keeping the news from my daughter, though. With a purple stroller she might never agree to walk. -Stephanie

Find the Bugaboo Special Edition colors coming to boutiques and specialty stores any day now for the Bugaboo Bee and Bugaboo Cameleons. But they'll only be around for a year!  As for the Bugaboo Donkey, get yourself on a waiting list now if you're interested, through shops like Magic Beans and Giggle. Full review coming soon.
