The first stroller was engineered to be pulled by a goat (or animal of similar size)

William Kent, a landscape architect, invented the first stroller for the third Duke of Devonshire in 1733. But upper-class parents were hardly expected to put effort into transporting their children around, so Kent designed his model to be pulled by a small animal, like a goat.
 
That’s such a fun fact! 😄 Who knew stroller history involved goats? 🐐 Kent really went all out for the Duke’s kids!
