What do you use to shade LO from sun in the stroller?
I have the Chicco travel system so so far I've just had dd in her carseat in the stroller, so I could completely cover her from the sun with the carseat and stroller canopies together. But now that she's going to be riding in the stroller seat soon because she's growing out of her carseat, I'm thinking about how to shade her since the stroller canopy doesn't come down very far. I saw a couple different shade attachments on Amazon, but I don't like how they look like they prevent the baby from seeing anything and also prevent the parents from being able to see the baby. Are there any other options? I was thinking of maybe using the mosquito netting cover I have for the stroller and clipping a receiving blanket to it to block the sun, but I haven't tried it yet so I'm not sure if that would work.

What about UV netting?

So funny you right this because I was just googling this yesterday! I have the same stroller and same issue! I have to cover it with a blanket to keep the sun out of his eyes. Please let me know if you find anything!

I'm not sure if you've found anything yet but I think these may be what your looking for. It seems she's/they are about to have a Grand Opening and I think a Giveaway is about to happen on FaceBook. I have a friend that got a set custom made and she LOVES them! (That's how I found out about these stroller shades).
Check out link below:

Good Luck!

Re: What do you use to shade LO from sun in the stroller?
I have a BOB stroller with a big canopy and when it's sunny I just pull it all the way down. Stinks that DD can't see out but she hates the sun in her eyes!
Also I was at my moms last week and we borrowed a stroller from a friend and the canopy was no good so we put a bucket hat on DD and draped a blanket over. Worked like a charm!
