Best car seat bunting: how to choose?

[ad_1]

Car seat buntings are a safer alternative to bulky coats or snowsuits, which can compromise the safety of car seat straps. There are different types of buntings available, including those that fit over the seat like a shower cap or those worn as a poncho. Alternatively, coats made with Polartec fleece can be used, or a plain coat can be worn unbuttoned with the child’s arms and coat pulled through the straps.

There are many types of car seat bunting to choose from. Buntings offer an advantage over blankets in that they cannot be kicked over or dropped. However, you should not put a bulky coat or snowsuit on your baby while she is in the car seat.

All car seat manufacturers recommend against using coats and snowsuits on cat seats. This is because the straps cannot be adjusted correctly when the baby wears bulky clothes. In an accident, the coat compresses and the baby can fall out of the seat. A car seat bunting is a great way to avoid a coat or snowsuit and still keep your baby warm.

One type of available car seat bunting is attached to the seat with the lap and shoulder straps. This puts a layer of bunting between the baby and the back of the car seat. Like wraps, car seat straps with these buntings cannot be properly adjusted to contain your baby in the event of an accident. Some car seat manufacturers discourage the use of these splices, and doing so may void your warranty.

There are many safe options available to keep your baby warm. Snowsuits and coats made with Polartec fleece are fine for use with car seats. Since they are not bulky, the straps can be tightened properly. Polartec fleece is very warm, despite being thin.

A type of car seat bunting fits over the seat like a shower cap, and there is a hole in the top for the baby’s face to go through. There is often a flap over the hole that can be closed to keep out the wind and cold. Since these splices fit over the top of the seat, they do not affect tightness or security.

Another type of car seat bunting is worn by the child as a poncho. It fits around the child’s shoulders and the rest fits over the seat. Putting on the poncho after the child is in the seat prevents interference from the leash.

Car seat packs can be expensive, but they are great to have in colder climates. There are patterns available to make your own that are easy to follow even for people who are not good with crafts. A poncho can be made with minimal sewing.

It may be possible to safely use a plain coat with a car seat. Put your child in his car seat with his coat on, unbuttoned. Pull the child’s arms and coat through the straps. Tighten and fasten the straps as usual, then close the cape over the straps. This will prevent loose straps and the coat can still be worn.
