    someone put a great link on here the other day. like a sleeping bag that zipped up the middle. think was Helenic. It was fab for older kids and only £20.

    Sorry didn't have time to find thread. Think it was in minding chat.

    It looks great on the site but the postage was about £12 so not so cheap
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    I use fleece blanketts which i find just as good, warmth comes from layers of clothing/blankets so a blanket folded in half or even quarters is just as warm as a footmuff and much cheaper

    For my little guy I found a couple of very cheap fleece blankets, and because they don't fray, I slit some holes into it so I could poke his 5point harness through. Then I sort of envelope wrapped it around him. This way it didn't fall off him and I could leave it on the pushchair all the time (and his little butt stayed warm even when it was a freezing cold day ).
