Winters canbeharsh in thecityand for that blusteryperiod, we swear by the212blanket by7AMEnfant, theBugabooHighPerformance footmuff, and theElks&AngelsSnugpod. Puffer material keepsbaby toastyandahooddoes wonders for keeping theheat in. In fact, baby might just beplain-clothed in the footmuff as the warmer does the jobof awinter coat andhat! The puffer footmuffs are machine washable which adds convenience. Interestingly, the natural sheepskin footmuff (which does need a professional clean) is warming in the winter and cooling in the summer so it doesn’t have to retire after the season. Just zip off the front and use it as a moisture wicking stroller liner.

CARRIER & CAR SEAT FOOTMUFFS!

Carriers and car seats have their own crop of footmuffs. 7AM Enfant makes an awesome carrier cover that doubles as a single ply stroller blanket called the Pookie Poncho. Ergo & Baby Bjorn also make their own that can cover baby seamlessly. As for car seats, this is important! According to the Car Seat Lady, Alisa Baer, never have bulky coats or thick footmuffs on baby when riding in the car. She helped 7AM design the perfect muffs that are as safe as they are stylish. The NIDO and Easy Cover by 7AM Enfant are backless so there is no bulk added and the baby sits directly on the car seat.

NOT JUST FOR STROLLERS!
