If you’re using your car seat in hot weather, you’re probably wondering how to keep your child cool and comfortable on short journeys as well as longer trips.
Aside from running the car’s air conditioning on maximum chill and trying to park in the shade, window sun shades such as the Britax Easy Cling and Little Life are essential kit for summer travel. They protect your passengers from the glare of the sun, block up to 70% of the harmful UV rays without obstructing the view and will fit most cars.
Summer is also the time of year when your car seat is likely to be splattered with sun cream (and ice cream!) You can, of course, remove the covers from your seat and wash them (always follow specific manufacturers’ instructions) but a separate car seat cover is far easier to whip off and wash as required.
Axkid, BeSafe and Britax all make summer covers which are tailor made to fit their seats-you can find them on our website or pop into the shop to find out more.
