Cold-weather outings are easier to plan when the accessories actually fit your gear. I picked stroller footmuffs, rain covers, parent hand warmers, blankets, and infant-carrier cover options for different budgets.

Follow your exact stroller and car-seat manuals, keep baby’s face uncovered, and remove weather covers indoors or in a warm vehicle. Never add bulky layers beneath a car-seat harness.
