• These carriage names were called “perambulators” or “pram” as William Kent made them with wood, wicker, and heavy metals.

• The first lightweight stroller was made by Owen Maclaren in the 1900s from aircraft aluminium, with the help of Maclaren, one of the best companies in England till now for the best baby strollers.
