6 Winter Mommy Life-Savers!
We know all about the battle to get their coats on while they cry for ice cream, or the fight over wanting to wear open crocs in the snow. Luckily, certain things make being a Mommy in the winter endlessly better. Like the blanket stroller insert with arms that double as a coat (life saver!) from Snug Science or from 7am Enfant or Spiderman winter boots that light up.
Here are 6 things that will officially make our lives as Mommy’s better this winter:
CHRISTMAS LEGGINGS/ CHANUKAH SWEATERS
Why? Because cuteness takes away the chill! Perhaps not a life saver in the traditional sense, but certainly in a “last night the DJ saved my life” sort of way.
INSULATED CAR SEAT COVER
If you’re traveling with an infant this holiday season, the Cozy Cover car seat cover will ensure your little one stays protected from harsh weather and unwanted touch. It provides the ultimate in protection from weather elements like wind, rain, snow, and UV rays.
BLOW UP CAR SEAT BOOSTER
BubbleBum is a life changer for holiday shlepping. Who has the hands to hold 3 car seats? This makes like a breeze for kids over 4, a blow up car booster that fits into a small bag. Genius for travel, and the price is right! A must for any parent of the 4 and up crew.
STROLLER UMBRELLA HOLDER
Inclement weather makes shuttling kids in snow, rain, and sleet a mega pain. And when it’s unsafe to baby wear (when the ground is super icy) having a hands-free ride is a game changer. This umbrella holder from Bumbershoot makes a perfect baby gift – because who on earth would realize they needed this til they had a few kids! Try running around holding an umbrella while pushing a stroller while your fingers freeze to bits! This makes daily duties a breeze.

STROLLER MUFFS
Take it from the GGA Mama crew, these changed our winter life. These cozy hand-warmers attach to any bar or handles, keeping your hands toasty while making it easy to tend to your child’s needs. The WarMMuffs’ hook and loop fasteners allow for easy attachment to strollers, shopping carts and more. No annoying glove removal – simply slip handies in and out. Another one that makes for a much-appreciated holiday or shower gift. They come in a billion color and fabric configurations, so you may just want to buy two sets!
ALL PURPOSE HELMET
This brilliant kids helmet goes from scooting to biking to skiing AND features a detachable fleece insert (that does cost a little extra, but so worth it,) so there’s no fight about a hat under the helmet!
All these little purchases will make your life just-that-much-easier in the icy months! Plus they are all fabulous holiday gift ideas.
