☀️☀️There are summer heat waves🥵 across the globe right now, here’s how you can keep your kids cool in their car seats!⁠⁠☀️☀️

🌞 Cooling Evaporative Towels: These can be reused and can keep your child cool for hours – there are many brands, including Frogg Togg and Icy chill.

🌞The Noggle: A flexible air duct that you can connect/tape on to your front air vents to redirect the flow of the A/C to the back of the vehicle⁠⁠

It’s pretty easy to also make one yourself!

🌞Car Seat Cooling Mat🥶: Put in your freezer and place in your car seat *when your child is not in it. These keep the seat and harnesses cool. You can find some on Etsy, Amazon (Carats brand) and

*DO NOT USE underneath a child in the seat.

🌞Hand-Held Misting Fan: Great for a quick misting in and out of the car, and super fun for kids to use!

🌞Window Covers: Tint your windows if you can, use a windshield cover, or mesh window shades (there are some that go over your car door so they do not become projectiles!) or if you have to you can use the window shades that are cling on and connect to the window, so if the window is closed it is locked in place. Be careful to get one that is soft as it could become a projectile in a crash.

🌞Car Seat Shade Cover/Canopy: You can put a shade cover over the car seat when it is not in use to block the sun and keep it cool. There are also car seat **canopies that work well to block the sun.



**MAKE SURE YOUR CAR SEAT AND VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS BOTH ALLOW ITS USE
