There is already so much to think about when you have a baby, and then wintertime comes along and seems to add on a whole new list of things to keep in mind! knowing what wintertime gear you need for your baby and picking it all out can be stressful, to say the least. lucky for you, our Rookie mommies have been through it already and are here to help you pinpoint exactly what you need. here is the best baby gear for wintertime to keep your little one relaxing and safe!
Things to keep in Mind
Car Safety: A normal wintertime coat is so bulky that it creates a few inches of gap between the harness and your child. The big bulky coats that we all grew up wearing are a big no-no for car seats. Instead, you can use coats that are approved by the ever-trustworthy car Seat lady or you can use blankets. We tried to keep the wintertime baby gear on our list much more fitted versus bulky, which will help!
*Rookie mother Tip: put on your child’s coat backward after you safely buckle them in. This usually works best for older toddlers or big kids.
Comfort and Warmth: You certainly want to keep your baby warm, but you also want to consider their comfort. Make sure they have their full range of movement and pay extra attention if they are all bundled up and seem unusually grumpy.
Inside vs Outside: You will want to consider some warm clothes for your baby to wear inside along with the normal outdoor wintertime gear.
All the best baby gear for Winter
The essential to dressing in Layers
You don’t need to purchase a ton of fancy wintertime gear for your little one! dressing your child in layers allows them to be warm without the extra bulk of a heavy wintertime coat! It also gives you the option to add on or take off layers as the temperature fluctuates. start them with a onesie if they’re still a baby or a t-shirt if they’re a little older. add warm pants, thick socks, a pullover sweatshirt, and a fitted fleece jacket.

Kapelusz
Pullover Sweatshirt

Winter gear alternatives for Baby
These are all things that you probably already have lying around your house. Użyj ich! If you are against putting any kind of coat on your child while in the car, use what you have to keep them warm. My kids love the special car blankets that they get to use. The blankets only come out once coats are required outside so it makes them even much more special.
I still always make sure to pack hats, mittens, socks, and warm shoes. during the winter, warm shoes and socks are both crucial parts of your baby’s gear. So much of our body heat escapes from our feet and our heads so it’s good to make sure they’re all covered up.
The best wintertime coats for Your Baby
Look for down coats that don’t have too much bulk to them. There are plenty of down coats that you can find out there that are suitable for your child to wear while in their car seat but when it pertains to wintertime coats, look for either a down coat or a fleece coat. These coats add plenty of warmth without the bulk.
You also want to find a coat that stops ideal at your baby’s hips. This will guarantee your child is able to wear the coat safely in the car because it won’t bunch too much along the waist seat belt. I would also recommend that you look for a coat that has a removable hood or a large neckline.
Winter gear for Infants
From snowsuits to bundle bags, here are some wintertime gear options for infants that you will actually use!
The 7 AM Enfant Nido is a way to swaddle your baby safely in their car seat or stroller. There is a hole at the back of the product, so you set it in the car seat and then you can access the entire harness. You just buckle your child up and then tuck them in good and warm.
Another great option for infants is the road coat Snow Suit. It is a snowsuit that was made so that your baby can wear it safely in their car seat. This snowsuit is made of down with a “split collar” so that you can access the harness and guarantee that it is secured correctly.
There are also different infant car seat covers. two of our favorites are this one from JJ Cole and this one from Jolly Jumper. I love the buffalo pattern, it’s ideal for winter!
Winter gear for Toddlers
Once your baby has grown into a toddler, it is a bit much easier to find their wintertime gear. For the bigger kids and toddlers, there are plenty of different coats for them as well.
One kid road coat makes a great line of children’s down coats for the winter. I love that this coat has two layers to it with the inner layer having a “non-slip surface”. The double-layer also allows you to buckle your child up when you’re in the car. You simply zip up the outer layer over the harness to keep them extra warm. However, your child is also able to unzip it when they get too warm. This jacket is warm, safe, and 100% deviCE do mycia. Matka zatwierdzona!
L.L. Bean ma również świetną linię warstw dla dzieci. Odwracalna kurtka z górą jest jedną z moich ulubionych warstw od nich, ponieważ nie jest zbyt puszysty, co czyni ją idealną zarówno pod względem komfortu, jak i do noszenia ich w samochodzie.
Buckle Me Baby to kolejna linia bezpiecznych warstw na fotelik dla dzieci i dzieci. Są to płaszcze, które mają zamek błyskawiczny na bok, co ułatwia rozpakowanie, bezpieczne zapinanie dziecka z uprzębą, a następnie zapinaj na uprzęże, aby utrzymać je ciepło. To świetny płaszcz dla dzieci, ale jeśli twoje dziecko jest niezależne i chce same założyć płaszcze, boczny zamek może być dla nich trudny do zrozumienia.
Tej zimy bądź ciepły i bezpieczny!
Ogólnie rzecz biorąc, istnieje wiele opcji sprzętu dla niemowląt, aby zapewnić dziecku bezpieczeństwo i ciepło tej zimy. Możesz zaoszczędzić pieniądze i użyć tego, co masz lub możesz wyjść i kupić górną płaszcz. Rób wszystko, co działa dla Ciebie i Twojego dziecka. Wszyscy wciągamy nasze dzieci i wychodzą z fotelików samochodowych około gazillion razy dziennie, więc znajdź system zimowy, który działa dla Twojej rodziny i wybieraj go. To są dobre opcje, więc idź i miej ciepły i bezpieczny zimę!
