When it comes to baby products, it seems that everything has already been invented. Cushions for car seat straps, mixers for bottles of formula, swaddle blankets for dummies, and loads of other contraptions. So when I see something totally new and creative, I tend to have a, "Why didn't I think of that?" moment.
That's what I thought when I saw these funtastic car seat covers from Babbaco ($88). New moms frequently take their newborns on strolls and cover their infant seats with blankets in hopes of shielding their offspring from direct sunlight, loud conversations, or inquisitive strangers. Along comes a gust of wind and the blanket flies off into the wind along with mommy's plan. Created by mother Jessica Kim, the sprightly covers have an elastic bottom that offers babies protection and privacy. And, unlike blankets, two peepholes allow mommy to keep an eye on her little cocoon nesting without interrupting the wee one's slumber.

Their VISTA stroller is on my baby wish list.
This makes me LAUGH because there is no way in hell my son would have stood for this AT ALL (ands still won't). We had to stop using our infant seat with our stroller when he was about 4 weeks old because he couldn't stand to be where he couldn't see everything. I tried to cover him up once in the seat and he screamed. It always amazes me that babies can stand to be that way. He refuses to nap in public and certainly has to see at all times.
They are cute, though.
