Notes from the sewing room
What we learned cutting these, written down before we forgot it. One note per section of the range.
Before you buy anything
A footmuff in the car seat: what can go under your child
The same word covers two different objects. One of them belongs nowhere near a harness.
Winter routine
Dressing a baby under a cover without adding bulk
Thin layers, harness, then warmth. The order does more work than the fabric does.
Warm weather
Mesh, a blanket or a rain cover on the stroller
Three things get draped over a stroller hood in summer and only one of them lets air through.
Travel with a toddler
A standalone travel potty or a seat reducer
Two very different objects sold under the same search. Which one you want depends on where you are going.
Airports
Gate check or the baggage counter with a car seat
Where you hand it over decides how much handling it gets, and handling is what damages seats.
At home
How long a baby sits in a bouncer
The answer is shorter than most of us expect, and the reason is floor time rather than the chair.
