Then remove the child from the seat WITHOUT loosening the straps. This will only work IF: you test it by putting the coat in question on the child, buckling them into their car seat and adjusting the straps to pass the pinch test. Thus, putting on a puffy coat and zipping it over the straps is not ok as it comes between the child and the back of the seat seat and shoulder straps straps. This means either between the child's back and the seat or between the child's belly and the straps. so that's $80 give or take, for a blanket with a hole for the head.Īnything that comes between your child and the straps other than typical clothing is not ok.

The cheapest I found was $35 plus $7 shipping, so $42. I don't remember when I first saw a car seat poncho, but when I saw it for the first time I thought it was genius. He's no longer in that seat, so now we strap him in and put a blanket around him. It was perfect because it kept him warm, dry, and protected him from wind. Hugh was born in December of 2012 and while in NC with him, we were able to get a cold weather cover for his car seat. All that cold weather can be tough on a toddler!! We moved to Georgia and while it's a teeny bit warmer here, we still have cold weather and even some 'snow' (I don't call it real snow because it's just flurries). Quite the contrary, it can be nippy in North Carolina!! However, just because there isn't snow doesn't mean that it's not cold. While we lived in North Carolina, four years to be precise, we had exactly five days with snow. We were eager to move south and thought we'd be safe from worrying about cold weather. Michigan has cold winters (and cold springs and cold falls). When we lived in Michigan, we didn't have children yet, but had planned on it.
