Useful pushchair accessories

Whilst most pushchairs come with some accessories, it is important
to check what is included before you buy. There are many optional extras
that you can buy for your pushchair, but whilst these are often very useful,
they may add to the overall cost considerably.

Useful Accessories:

  • Mattress: All carrycots need a mattress, liner and apron, plus
    sheets and blankets for bedding
  • Footmuffs and cosytoes: Pushchairs need cosytoes or footmuffs
    for warmth and protection, and depending on the weather, an extra blanket
    underneath
  • Rain cover: Many designs of pushchair will have an integral
    collapsible hood, but you will also need a rain cover that covers the
    whole pushchair, to ensure your child is kept dry in bad weather
  • Parasol: a parasol or sun canopy will be needed for added protection
    on sunny days
  • Zip-up cape: An alternative to a rain cover for a pushchair
    is a zip-up cape that goes over the pushchair, with a hood in the middle
    to keep your child’s head dry. These are ideal for travelling as they
    do not take up much space when they are not in use
  • Shopping baskets: clip-on nets or shopping baskets are available
    for some pushchairs, enabling you to carry a small amount of shopping
  • Changing bag: For a co-ordinated look, many pushchair manufacturers
    make a nappy changing bag that matches their fabrics
  • Toys: There are many toys available for babies and young children
    designed to fit onto a pushchair. These may help prevent your baby from
    getting bored and restless in the pushchair
