Draping sheets etc over child’s pushchair

A bit of warm weather and seen my pet hate - parents who drape a towel, sheet, muslim cloth over their child’s pushchair.

Don’t they realise that this makes the area under the covering warmer? Plus babies can’t regulate temperature well.

They are better off with a clip on parasol. Then the air circulates.

Why do parents still do this habit of draping material over the pushchair?

It’s handy when you need the baby to sleep. We live in the U.K. so regulating body temperature isn’t difficult.

Muslin. Muslims don't have special cloths.

Oh, is that what it is? I was rather worried that they were baby ghosts being wheeled about. 👻

I used to think that nearly thirty years ago.

A nice day doesn't need a blanket , coverall, a fleece or a muslin.

A Muslim cloth? 🤣
