Best Stroller Blankets for a Cozy Day Out

– the complete review of the best stroller blanket for you baby!

Looking to buy a nice warm blanket for your newborn or toddler for a cold day out? Then here are the top stroller blankets to keep your little one warm and cozy while out and about on a ride!

1. JJ Cole Original Bundle Me 

YSG Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (4.9 / 5)

My top pick for the best stroller blanket is the JJ Cole Original Bundle Me bunting bag! It is not like your regular stroller blanket that constantly needs to be tucked at the sides. It instead has an all-round zipper that helps you easily keep your baby warm and cozy on the stroller seat. 

It is made with super soft faux shearling that helps you keep your baby warm and super snug. It is available in sizes for both infants and toddlers.

What I Love?
  • Soft and cozy fabric
  • Wrap around zipper
  • Washing machine friendly
  • Fits both strollers and car seats
  • Includes holes for stroller seatbelt
Cons
  • High-end price

There is barely anything not to love about the JJ Cole stroller blanket. The only Con is that it is quite pricey compared to other blankets available on the market.

2. Skip Hop Stroll and Go Stroller Blanket 

YSG Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars (4.7 / 5)

Next after the JJ Cole is the Skip Hop Stroll and Go stroller blanket!

Quite similar in design with the JJ Cole but with a few more options and also almost double the price.

The Skip Hop stroller blanket is the ideal blanket to have for all seasons. It has two layers that can be used for different weathers. One for Fall and Spring, and an extra layer for Winter. This allows you to adjust the warmth based on how cold the weather is.

The fabric is not as soft and plush as the JJ Cole, but it still keeps your baby quite warm and snug. It is also windproof and water resistant. And includes a detachable hoodie for even more warmth when needed. 

Why I Love It?
  • Snap-on winter layer
  • Water resistant and windproof
  • Warm hoodie
  • Includes holes for stroller seatbelt
Cons
  • Very pricey

The Skip Hop stroller blanket is also quite expensive. Even more expensive than the JJ Cole stroller blanket. But since you’re getting an extra winter layer, that also makes a difference.

3. XMWealthy Newborn Baby Blanket

YSG Rating: 0 out of 5 stars (0 / 5)

A more affordable alternative to the above two is the XMWealthy Newborn stroller blanket. It is only suitable for newborns and infants up to 12 months old. Unlike the above two, it is made of knitted wool and fleece, which is not as luxurious, but still super warm and cozy. It can be used as both a sleeping blanket, a stroller blanket or a swaddle blanket.

The button up feature helps to keep your baby fully covered and snug like the above blankets. 

Why I Love It?
  • Affordable
  • Button up feature
  • Super Soft fleece inner lining
Cons
  • Only for newborns and infants
  • Not washing machine friendly

4. XMWealthy Newborn Baby Wrap 

YSG Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars (4.7 / 5)

Like the above blanket, the XMWealthy Baby Wrap is also quite affordable at just under $20. However, it is only suitable only for newborns – max 6 months old. 

It is made with warm knitted wool that keeps your baby completely wrapped and snug. But it does not have a nice soft inner lining like the above blankets. This stroller blanket is therefore more suitable for not too cold seasons like Fall and Spring. In the Winter, you’d want to get something thicker like the above blankets. 

It however, also has a hoodie that helps to keep your newborn’s pretty little head nice and warm! It is ideal for newborns in their infant car seats, carrycots or newborn stroller seats.

What I Love?
  • Super affordable
  • Has a hoodie
  • Can be used as a blanket or sleeping bag
Cons
  • Only suitable for newborns
  • Not washing machine friendly
  • Not warm enough for winter

5. Bedsure Sherpa Fleece Blanket

YSG Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars (4.7 / 5)

Next on the list is the Bedsure Sherpa Fleece blanket. Compared to the above, it is your regular style blanket that doesn’t wrap around with a zipper or buttons. It is still however, super soft and made with plush fleece material that helps to keep your baby nice and snug.

You can wrap it around your baby while seated in the stroller. It is also suitable for both newborns and toddlers. And can be used as a sleeping blanket in a crib and also as a stroller blanket. 

Why I Love It?
  • Super soft and plush
  • Affordable
  • Washing machine friendly
Cons
  • No wrap around zipper or buttons

6. FunLife Waterproof Bag 

YSG Rating: 4.6 out of 5 stars (4.6 / 5)

Suitable for rainy days and long outdoor outings is the FunLife waterproof bunting bag. It has an all round zipper that helps to keep your baby fully wrapped and snug in the stroller seat. The exterior is waterproof making it great for light rain in the Fall. And  it has a soft inner lining of fleece for cold weathers. 

The fabric is easy to clean and also washing machine friendly. It is suitable for both newborns and toddlers. So your baby can use it from birth till they are much older. 

Why I Love It?
  • Waterproof
  • Super soft inner lining
  • Dirt proof and wash machine friendly
  • Can be used by newborns and toddlers
  • Includes holes for stroller seat belt
Cons

Why do you need a stroller blanket?

As we reach the colder seasons and the temperatures begin to drop, the weather could become quite cold especially for your little one. So the best option is to use a nice stroller blanket to keep your baby warm and cozy especially if you plan to be outdoors for a long time. The blanket would help to keep the cold out and also give your baby something soft and nice to snuggle into while riding aboard the stroller.

How to pick a stroller blanket?

The main thing to consider when choosing a stroller blanket is the fabric of the blanket. The inner lining of the blanket needs to be made with soft fabric like – fleece or wool. These are the best in terms of providing warmth. 

Second, you need to decide if you’d prefer a regular blanket like the Bedsure Sherpa Fleece blanket or a blanket that can be zipped all-around like the JJ Cole Original Bundle Me stroller blanket. I much prefer a stroller blanket that can be zipped all around because you can easily keep your baby nicely tucked into the blanket using the zipper or button. The regular blankets cannot be zipped so they require you to tuck them yourself and make sure they stay in place even if your baby moves around.

The above are the main things to consider when picking a stroller blanket. Other things are the color, design, which can be selected based on what you prefer.
