The Snoozeshade Twin is a great product.

This black out blind for buggies allows babies to sleep anywhere, on the move, whilst protecting them from wind and sun.

We took our Snoozeshade Twin to Spain with us for our ‘familymoon’ and it really did make a genuine difference to our time there.

We used the Snoozeshade on the beach for a morning nap, along the promenade for an after lunch siesta, for an early morning stroll through the village. It enabled us to leave the house for longer periods of time without depriving the babies of sleep or upsetting their routine. We also felt confident keeping them outside as the shade offers sun protection of UPF50+. We did not leave them in direct sunlight however as they did tend to get a little hot under the shade when it was a very hot day.

The shade was well ventilated though, made of a breathable fabric and with the zip opening hatches at the front for extra air flow if required.

This week we have started a busy timetable of baby classes back here in the UK. Every morning we are out before 9 and at 9 the Snoozeshade is attached to the buggy and the babies have their nap.

They love being snuggled under a BundleBean blanket in the dark and it never takes them long to fall asleep, and they stay asleep for a good length of time too.

The Snoozeshade encourages good sleeping habits for babies while allowing mummies a bit more freedom without the worry of breaking their child’s routine.

The Snoozeshade has two zip openings on the front which I use as peep holes to check on Esther and William. These little windows on to the babies’ land of nod are a brilliant idea, an unobtrusive way of checking my little ones are okay.

The Snoozeshade is so easy to use, it Velcro’s on to the handle bars of the buggy and round the sides. It is a stretchy fabric so fits onto most tandem buggies. I have been using it on our Cosatto Twin and am hoping that it will also fit our Easywalker, which I will be trying out next week, so watch this space!

I say that The Snoozeshade is easy to use but if you look closely at our photos you will see that we struggled to get it right straight away. User error I am afraid!!

This is a great product and now I never leave home without it.

My sister is having a baby boy in October and I am definitely going to be buying her the single version of the shade for her little one. A simple, practical, life enhancing product. An essential buy for any new mum.
