Traveling Mamas On The Move Approved: Cold Seat
By DesertMama | June 19, 2008
Here we are in the throws of summer. Swim lessons are in session, ice cream cones have melted all over my patio, and when I open my car door in the afternoon I get slapped in the face with a blanket of heat. As I write this it’s 104 degrees outside.
My kids dread getting in the car this time of year because they know how hot their car seats can get - that was until I came across the brilliant, and I do mean a brilliant, invention called Cold Seat.
The Cold Seat is a freezable seat cooler. Simply freeze the rolled-up Cold Seat then bring it along on your next outing. Cover the car seat when you get to your destination. Upon your return remove the Cold Seat, roll it up and store it. Your little one now has a comfortable seat to ride in. The Cold Seat has a Velcro tab to keep it rolled while stored and it fits easily underneath adult car seats. When you get home just pop it back in the freezer. (It fits nicely in my freezer door.) They come in the cutest patterns: Blue Camo, Sport and Pink Flower with little flip-flops.
The first time I put it to use I was so impressed how well it worked. It even kept the metal seat belts (which are normally on fire) a nice cool temperature. For the first time my little girl didn’t say “Hot!” when we put her in her car seat.
This is one product that definitely gets our Traveling Mamas On The Move Approved seal.
Shari Griffin, mom of two, is the brains behind this amazing creation. Nice job, Shari. Talk about a Super Mama!

Check out http://www.babybeecool.com No more hot car sets buckles or belts. Invented in 2002, no rolling it up, just fold and go, with shoulder straps to make things easy to carry. Just freeze the two ice packs, insert and go. It also can be used as a tote for perishable food items. Seen on foxnews.com
Featured at BABY CELEBRATION in LA last April 2008 Plus, it outlasts coolness 7 times longer than anything on the market.

Do they make those car seat covers for adults? “I wish,” says Donna who is melting in the 107 Tucosn heat!

Thank you for the wonderful write up about Cold Seat. It was so nice of you to publish the information. I did feel that the comment or advertisement for a similar product line that entered the market after our debut took away from the write up. I have sent this blog to so many of our customers who are faithful fans as well and appreciative Moms with happy kids on board!
Warm Regards,
