We all know there is nothing worse than being in the car, driving or not, and having the sun glaring in your eyes – it makes it hard to see and hard to sleep if you’re a little one. Sunshades come in various forms – for windows and for the car seat directly – but they all do a similar job. Sunshades help to protect little eyes from the sun, making it easier to sleep or see everything going on inside the car.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Benefits of Using Car Sunshades?
When lovely sunny days appear, although it's time to celebrate the stunning weather, it should also be a time to put on your safety-planning glasses, as UV rays can pose a serious risk to children. Car Sunshades allow windows to be safely covered to minimise the impact of the sun.
As well as keeping your little one out of harm's way by eliminating the chance of skin damage and overheating, there are also other benefits to choosing these versatile accessories. Sun can damage car interiors, causing cracks and colour bleaching. A sunshade stops car seats and other childcare accessories from becoming victim to the rays and keeps your car looking fresh.
Another benefit is that car sunshades are easy to install, meaning you can keep them in your boot and whip them out whenever required. Overall, using car sunshades can help protect your car's interior, keep your car cooler and improve visibility while driving; all essential boxes to tick when you have a child travelling with you.
How Do I Install Car Sunshades?
Car sunshades can be easily attached to a window in minutes. All you have to do is check if the product you have is the right size, clean the windows, ensure it's dry and attach the cover using the provided suction cups. Before you start driving, carry out a safety check to ensure the sunshade is securely in position and you are good to go!
How Do I Find the Right Car Sunshade?
Whilst many car sunshades are universal, you must select a product compatible with your vehicle. Some have larger windows than others, so for the best installation and coverage, you should take time to understand your recommended options.
If the sunshade is too large, it will likely not suction to the window properly and run the risk of falling. Alternatively, if it’s too small, the risks of sun damage will still be apparent as it will likely be able to flood through open areas at the sides, bottom or top.
Are There Any Considerations When Using a Car Sunshade?
It's important to remember that car sunshades are designed to block out the sun's harmful UV rays, but don’t provide complete protection from the sun's glare. Additionally, be sure to periodically check your child car sunshades for signs of wear and tear and replace them if they become damaged or no longer function properly.
Lastly, you must always ensure the child is securely in their seat to gain optimal benefit from the sunshades.
Do Car Sunshades Offer Protection Against UV Rays?
Yes, by choosing a window-covering sunshade you are eliminating the chance of harmful rays reaching your child. The designs allow passengers to still enjoy a view of the beautiful weather on offer outside but stops the negative side of the run being an irritation. You should always still ensure your child is wearing sun protection whilst travelling in a vehicle to be best prepared.
