Bambi Baby: Top 5 Must-Have Car Seat Accessories

Top 5 Must-Have Car Seat Accessories for Baby Safety & Comfort
You have your car seat and you're ready for the baby's arrival. Unfortunately, even the best car seats don't totally "have it all" in terms of accessories or necessities. While basic car seat safety is built-in, there are some car seat accessories that can enhance the safety and comfort of you and your little one .

We'll discuss the top 5 must-have baby car seat accessories to add to your infant car seat, carrier or toddler booster seat. We'll show you how they can improve the quality of your child's ride — and why Bambi Baby is the place to find the best car seat accessories .

What Car Seat Accessories Do I Need?

Once your baby is secured in their car seat, it's all smooth sailing, right? (Are you laughing out loud right now?) Parents the world over know that children, even when restrained in a car seat, can still create a little havoc that's distracting for the driver. Fortunately, there are car seat accessories that can mitigate some of these distractions and create a safer, more pleasant ride for you and your child.

1. Car Seat Protector
When it comes to a baby car seat, accessories are primarily about protecting your little one. In this case, it's about keeping your upholstery safe. We all know babies can be messy. Between snacks, spit-up, milk and juice, it's important to protect your car seats from crumbs and gunk. Simply place the car seat protector under the base of the car seat or the booster and allow your seats to remain stain-free. This seat protector is nice while the baby is in an infant carrier, but it becomes a true must-have for toddler car seat accessories. 


2. Baby Mirror for Car
Not being able to glance back at a baby when you're driving can be nerve-wracking and distracting. This is one of those car seat accessories that experienced moms and dads swear by. A car seat mirror easily attaches to the headrest of the rear seat and allows the driver to look into their rearview mirror at the baby mirror and see their little one. Other passengers can easily turn back and see how the little traveler is doing, too. Having a baby mirror for car safety is a great addition until the baby is front-facing.


3. Window Shades
Even cars with tinted windows don't fully protect babies from the sun. Having extra sunshade protection helps to keep the baby safe from the sun's harmful rays and darkens the car so they can sleep peacefully. These baby car seat accessories typically come in a pack of two, which means that both windows can be shaded. Even after a baby outgrows their infant and toddler car seat, they can still rely on these shades. Your little one can nap in comfort all the time — until they are ready to look out the window themselves!


4. Cup Holder
It might seem obvious, but some brands do not include a cup holder with their car seats. If you choose a brand that does not, a cup holder can make a huge difference. Not only is it a convenient place to hold a cup, but it's also great storage for snacks, pacifiers and whatever else your baby might be grabbing at – plus, you don't have to stop the car to give your baby what they need. Cup holders become even more necessary as car seat accessories when your child grows out of their infant carrier and can hold bottles themselves. 


5. Car Seat Canopy
A car seat canopy is a great accessory to protect babies from the cold, wind and sun, while also discouraging onlookers. Stretchy or flowy material wraps around the carrier, leaving a hole for the carrier arm to remain out for convenient carrying. Composed of breathable material, car seat canopies also keep babies warm in the cool winter months. They are among the perfect car seat accessories for your little one's early stages
