When planning a vacation to the mountains with your baby, you remember to bring warm clothes. But a gadget that is easy to use and very useful for walks will quickly become essential.
Going skiing with a baby or toddler, on paper, sounds both wonderful and easy to organize, but once it’s time to plan the trip, most parents tend to become slightly disillusioned. . And for good reason, if this is the first vacation in the mountains with a baby, some may encounter a common problem: what to put in the suitcase? Obviously, who says skiing, says snow and low temperatures. The first instinct is therefore to bring very warm clothes for baby such as a waterproof pilot suit, long-sleeved bodysuits, big socks, pairs of wool tights, waterproof shoes, small fleeces, a hat, a neck warmer, mittens, or even a pair of sunglasses to protect your fragile eyes.
To fully enjoy nature and the snow with your baby, you should also bring a special accessory in your suitcase. It is also fundamental, especially if you want to go for walks outdoors. These are mini skis for the stroller. We reassure you, the idea is not to hurtle down the slopes at full speed with baby in his cozy. This stroller accessory, which measures approximately 50 centimeters in length, will allow you to use your stroller on snow with complete peace of mind, without being afraid of getting the wheels stuck halfway. The principle is relatively simple: you just need to clip or screw – depending on the model – the skis at each wheel and that’s it. Once installed, you are ready for your walk.
Another advantage and not the least, it is not necessary to buy a specific model. In general, stroller skis fit all types of wheels. The exception is the Babyzen brand which markets YOYO strollers, with specific skis that fit directly on the wheels. They are easily found in stores specializing in childcare products and on e-commerce sites, all for 50 euros on average.
