We were going down the path of a bike trailer, when a few people popped up in here and suggested the wee ride. The negative feedback on the bike trailer was that whatever comes off your wheels can end up in the trailer (unless you have a cover), toys or shoes can get thrown out (again, not a problem if there is a cover) and you have to keep turning around to see the kids.
The wee ride sits in front of the rider, with the baby/toddler sitting actually in between the rider's arms. They aren't cheap, but we bought one (love layby!) and we all absolutely love it. We can hear DD chattering about, she's right there with us. Loads of fun. Good luck!
We have a Bo-bike which is like a wee ride as it sits up front of the bike. The good thing is that you can see your toddler and unlike rear mounted ones they don't have to lean out to see so they don't destabilise the bike. The bad thing is they can ring the bell!!!
We had a trailer but I found it hard to attach and it would drive me crazy. It was also quite heavy but it is great when you have to cart around a lot of stuff like nappy bags, food, etc
I had been looking around at different trailers over Summer, but was put off by the price. I happened to stumble across one in Big W, only $198 and the trailer converts into a stroller as well. Very easy to use and not a huge investment.
