How can the unique characteristics of a car seat be objectively assessed? To choose your child’s car seat you often rely on the opinions and experiences of the people you know or on reviews you find online. There are, however, organizations that can help you make this delicate decision. Their accurate assessment tests, which include crash tests, stress car seats in various ways until a final decision is reached, which comes as real consumer advice.

The most important among these impartial bodies is the ICRT (International Consumer Report & Testing), which combines 37 organizations in 33 countries worldwide.  Among them, the ADAC (German automobile club), TCS (Swiss Touring Club) and ÖAMTC (the Austrian equivalent) every year select a group of car seats that they test. The results are then published by the main consumer associations (e.g. Stitungwarentest in Germany, Altroconsumo in Italy, Que Choisir in France, Which? in the UK).

Primo Viaggio i-Size is the best car seat in its category

According to the ADAC 2019 tests, the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio i-Size (Base included), is the best car seat in its category, i.e. from birth to 18 months. Our Primo Viaggio i-Size car seat scored excellent results in the 2019 tests carried out by Stiftung Warentest, ADAC, ÖAMTC and TCS.

How testing assigns the final grade

Tests are carried out according to 4 categories: Safety, Handling, Ergonomics and Pollutants. The 5 assessment grades are:

• Excellent (0,5 - 1,5)
• Highly recommended (1,6 - 2,5)
• Recommended (2,6 - 3,5)
• Recommended with reserve (3,6 - 4,5)
• Not recommended (4,6 - 5,5)

Quality standards are very high; the final grade is the average of the results in the 4 categories, considering that the Safety category has the greatest influence on the result.

ADAC assigns Highly Recommended to Primo Viaggio i-Size

The Primo Viaggio i-Size (Base included) car seat was assigned an overall grade of ‘1.6’, the best in the 0-18 month category, so its overall ranking, according to ADAC 2019, is ‘highly recommended’. Here are the details of each of the assessed criteria:

• Safety: VERY GOOD (1.4)
• Handling: GOOD (1.8)
• Ergonomics: GOOD (1.9)
• Pollutants: GOOD (2.2)

What you need to know about Primo Viaggio i-Size

With Viaggio FF105, it is the winning combination

And after Primo Viaggio i-Size, which car seat should you choose? You already have the i-Size base and you can use it with the Viaggio FF105 car seat, which complies with the new ECE R 129 i-Size standard, from 71 to 105 cm - up to 20 Kg (from 1 to 4 years approximately).

Viaggio FF105 obtained good results in ADAC’s 2019 tests, with a final score of 2 (’Highly recommended’). What does Viaggio FF105 have to offer? Here are its main features:

You’ve probably never had much time to walk, and taking a stroll may never have been one of your favourite pastimes. But now that you’re a parent, my guess is you like the idea of having a walk with your child - especially now that he’s a few months old, and starting to sit up and look at the world go by.

It's good for mom and it's good for baby

The good news is that walking is easy and within everyone’s reach. It is good for the heart, but also for the mind. While you’re walking, endorphins arouse a feeling of euphoria that makes away with stress, anxiety and concern. It clears the mind, and if you’re feeling good, so will your child. After spending his first few months in a Navetta bassinet, now he can’t wait to go out strolling with mom and dad, taking in the wonders of the world and meeting new people and other children.

Whether he already knows how to walk, or he still has to take his first steps, the stroller will be your constant companion on your walks together. If you like more dynamic outings, you’ll love the compact, practical and versatile Booklet 50 S stroller with an aluminium frame.

Great freedom, on any ground

Time to get ready! Put on some comfortable clothes and have a chat with your little one. Tell him you're about to go and check out the outside world, and that it’s going to be fun. He’ll feel involved, and he’ll learn to recognize the preparations for this pleasant moment of the day. It is extremely important to spend some quality time together, so the details shouldn’t be left to chance - especially those, such as the choice of stroller, that will help you have a more pleasant experience.

If your destination is a park or a dirt path, you’ll need wheels that can live up to the situation, such as the Soft-Ride wheels of the Booklet 50 S. Their ultra-resistant treads, shock absorbers and 12 ball bearings will allow you to take on any terrain, no matter how rough!

Fancy a stroll in town? You’ll need to be able to manoeuvre your stroller with ease. What about a stroller that is just 50 cm wide and comes with an adjustable handle in hand-sewn faux leather? With Booklet 50 S, you can tackle the narrowest corners, such as old elevators or supermarket checkouts, with just one hand!

No fear of the unexpected

You’ll also manage to get on and off the bus with ease. Why? Because you can close it with one hand, and it stands upright on its own, without taking up too much space. Once folded it can be carried like a trolley case by its centralised handle. “Yes, but on public transport, where everyone can touch it...” No worries, the cover that comes into contact with your child remains protected, guaranteeing the utmost hygiene.

The beauty of going for a walk is being in the open air, especially after the endless bad weather. But to avoid the unexpected cold, you can use the stain and waterproof fabric foot muff provided with the Booklet 50 S. That way your child will be enveloped in a soft embrace and sheltered from the cold. To protect him from the wind and sun, you can extend the hood with UV Protection 50+, which is also equipped with a loop to hang your baby's favourite toy.

Strolling about and taking in the sights can be very tiring. The Booklet 50 S comes with an adjustable backrest and footrest, so that you can find the best position for nap time while out walking.

And if the look is important to you...

You can choose between three colours - Vibes Black, Vibes Gray and Vibes Red - for the soft technical honeycomb fabric with fashionable inserts. And the style? Sporty, and absolutely on-trend.

You can also transform it into a handy travel system

You can transform the Booklet 50 S stroller - approved for use from birth - as a handy travel system. Booklet 50 S can accommodate the Porte-enfant accessories and the Primo Viaggio SL car seat, sold separately. Booklet 50 S also comes with a baby bag with changing mat.

So, what stroller should you buy? If you want to spend some quality time with your child and don’t wish to leave the details to chance, then the Booklet 50 S, in Peg Perego’s all-Italian style, is the perfect choice, rooted in inimitable simplicity, functionality and beauty.

It is difficult to associate a high chair with an image of peace and comfort. Weaning frequently overlaps with tantrums and food scattered all over the kitchen because - let’s face it - no child really likes leaving mum’s warm embrace and having to sit up at table instead.

In this sense, technology and design can really help today’s mums thanks to multi-functional high chairs, designed to ensure maximum comfort for children and especially for parents. It is well known that for Italians meals are sacred and a moment of pleasure - why give up such a thing?

Follow us and I will explain to you why Tatamia Peg Perego is the ideal multi-functional high chair to make your child appreciate, from the very beginning, more than just the joys of sitting at table!

Reason 1: you can use it from birth

Usually, a high chair for meals enters our kitchen when our child turns 6 months old. Before this age, children have not developed the muscles needed to sit up unaided and, most importantly, it is around this age that children start to be weaned with semi-liquid foods.

Tatamia Peg Perego is at your side from the very beginning of your child’s life because it is suitable from birth. Its swing function allows you to have your child next to you as you eat with the rest of the family, rocking your little one gently so that your meal is not interrupted by sudden screaming or unexpected surprises. It is also a comfortable recliner! Thanks to the  Comfort Recline system, comfortable naps are guaranteed - the seat slides forwards, turning the high chair into a welcoming recliner.

With the Tatamia high chair, your child will:
• become familiar with the high chair used for weaning when he or she becomes older;
• learn to be at table with parents and siblings, fitting into the family routine without disrupting it.

Isn’t that great?

Reason 2: too nice to hide

Assemble, disassemble and reassemble the high chair every time: why? It is far better to have a high chair that is easy to move, to assemble when the child is born and disassemble many years later.

Tatamia Peg Perego, in addition to being comfortable and spacious for your child, is also easy to move from one room to another thanks to the Stop & Go system, which allows you, with one button, to fix it firmly next to kitchen table or to move it easily into the living room without damaging the floor, thanks to the non-scratch wheels.
PS: the button is sibling-proof, so older brothers or sisters will not be able to move the high chair.

Reason 3: too comfortable and convenient not to use all the time! 

Weaning stress is what could make peaceful meals in your home impossible for months and months.

Switching from milk to solid food - however natural - could be a source of stress for your child and for the entire family. Tears, screams, baby pasta and puréed fruit all over the place could become your daily routine.

However, we have a very good reason for being optimistic: Tatamia Peg Perego will become your child’s best friend and will be with him or her as he or she, gently and gradually, moves from drinking only milk to holding the first spoonful of solid food.

This is because:
• welcoming eco leather:
  its cover makes it as soft as mum’s embrace. A clean embrace: the cover can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth.

• From swing to recliner to high chair, without your little one even noticing:
  adjustable in height in 9 different positions, with a comfort recliner and anatomical leg divider, it will be your most comfortable ally          during weaning.

• You will always find the right position:
the backrest may be reclined into 4 positions while the footrest may be adjusted to 3 positions.

• Safety:
padded anatomical child seat with 3-point safety harness.

• From eating to playing or drawing:
even if meals are important and dedicated wholly to eating, thanks to the removable and machine-washable double tray, even the most active             children will be able to switch from snack time to coloured crayons with no fuss at all.
It is also convenient when folded, as it is free standing and easy to store.

Any doubts?

Give up your favourite bag? Never! And yet... there comes a time when you have to leave your travelling companion in your wardrobe and try out a new kind of bag. It happens when you become a mum and, suddenly, in addition to your keys, mobile phone, books and lipstick, you also have to carry nappies, a bottle of baby milk and spare socks.

The “baby” bag that will become your inseparable companion

Your collection of special bags has one that will become your favourite when your are a mum - a baby changing bag, a true survival kit. More than “your” bag, “his” (or “her”) bag will become your inseparable companion every time you go out. What is the best way of organising it? Here are our tips to be ready for all (or nearly all) events.

The list of what you may need

Essentials:

• Nappies
• Spare dummy with case
• A complete change of clothes (body, socks, dress/suit)
• Baby wipes
• Disposable mats for changing the baby
• A baby bottle with milk or water
• A small towel

Optionals (which can be very useful):

• Snacks, some fruit or pureed food
• Cream for skin reddening
• Paper tissues
• A toy or book to keep your little one busy
• Nursing pads (if you are breastfeeding)
• Sample packets of creams for nappy rash or skin reddening
• Plasters
• Sun cream and mosquito repellent in the summer, foot muff in the winter

Stroller travel bag? There’s more to it

When you go out with your baby, you may be on your own or with your partner, but never without your changing bag! Where can you find a large, comfortable bag that meets all your needs? You can find it in all Peg Perego modular systems, with a handy changing mat you can lay down anywhere. This ensures hygienic conditions even in the trickiest situations (public buildings, a bench in a park, a lawn, etc.).

Your motto must be “hygienic and practical”. Do not forget that your changing bag will contain food, toys, dummies and baby bottles, as well as - yes - some dirty clothes or dirty nappies (when there is nowhere to dispose of them).

Remember to disinfect the mat and replace any items you have used.

One bag for you and your child

Essential - this does not mean you have to give up on something attractive. Peg Perego changing bags are made of resistant fabrics with trendy, fashionable colours that match the strollers and the modular systems. We made them bearing in mind the wishes of many mums - large but not cumbersome, with pockets to efficiently arrange and organise everything you need.  Elegant, glamorous, urban… You can choose the “look” of the collection you prefer - the one most suited to your style. Here are the latest collections:

• Luxe Collection: elegance is in the detail
• Breeze Collection: a glamorous, sporty look featuring trendy details
• Geo Collection: irresistibly glamorous
• Urban Denim Collection: an all-denim look
• 500 Collection: unique design by Fiat
• Vibes Collection: matches the Booklet 50 S stroller

What if you go out without a stroller? Peg Perego changing bags have a practical adjustable shoulder strap, so you can wear them on or over your shoulder o carry them in your hand.

Have you figured out which bag is the one for you? Right, so now you can continue creating your ideal set with our modular system purchase guide.

Children just love to watch - and help! - Dad and Grampa at work in the garden or courtyard. And bring on those grown-up tools! Manual and electric equipment, small tractors and bulldozers.

Working with Dad is fun!

When Dad and Grampa are busy at work with all those jobs, big and small, in the garden and courtyard, little ones just love to help out. So why not let your child have a go? 100% fun guaranteed.

The electric bulldozer for children

Suitable from the age of three, you can now finally meet those "Can I help Dad, pleaaaase?!" with a confident, "Sure, why not?". There are plenty of grown-up things he can do - the sort that makes him come home dirty and tired, but happy to have helped out.

And you'll be so proud watching him manoeuvre the Deere Construction Loader - the perfect tool for your little one. With this electric bulldozer for children, which runs on a 12V/8Ah rechargeable battery, your child will be able to control the digging bucket, with all the safety of a high quality product designed and made in Italy. All your son will need to become your hard-working assistant is a pair of dungarees and a work hat.

Make your tiny tot feel all grown up

Once settled in the adjustable seat of the Deere Construction Loader, he can switch on the FM radio - just as you do for company while sorting out the garage or painting the wall.

The controls to raise and lower the digging bucket are within easy reach of the driver's seat. Loading and moving material (gravel, earth, sand, grass, snow, etc.) wherever you want it is now...well..child's play! Mum will be amazed to see her little one being so good and efficient working alongside Dad.

The Deere Construction Loader has two speeds and a reverse gear to negotiate difficult corners and hunt through the garden for things to do.

7 things your child can do with the Deere

Construction Loader

This is no simple bulldozer! It is a faithful working reproduction, in miniature scale, of the American John Deere models. The only limit to your child's play is that posed by your garden - because with the Deere Construction Loader, playing indoors is strictly forbidden. Decked out in work clothes, with his sleeves rolled up, there's no end to the outdoor fun your child can have!

7 ways (we know) of having fun with your son and the Deere Construction Loader:

1. Something easy to get started? Get him to learn to use the controls by loading clothes pegs and taking them over to the line.
2. Does he have an inseparable cuddly toy? He can keep it at his side, or prop him up in the digging bucket as he dashes around the garden.
3. Just cut the grass? He can load it onto the bucket and drop it next to the compost bin.
4. Holes in the garden? Let him carry over some earth and fill them in.
5. Lots of leaves on the ground? Time to clear up with the Deere Construction Loader.
6. Has it snowed? Finally someone who can give you a hand to move the smaller piles.
7. Need more loading capacity? The Deere Construction Trailer can carry up to 10 kg.

And that's just the start! The Deere Construction Loader is indeed a bulldozer, but it is also a means of unleashing your child's imagination and creativity. So just rev up and get down to work. And above all, have fun playing with your son.

The Deere Construction Loader forms part of the Peg Perego line of John Deere electric tractors for children aged 3 and up.

Made-in-Peg Perego quality and safety.

The quality of Peg Perego products is reflected in details guaranteeing the utmost safety. This product comes with a sealed base to protect the driver from electrical wires and tampering, and to protect the vehicle from water, mud and sand. The battery is protected by a child-safe battery lock.

The Breeze collection - a breath of fresh air

Here is Breeze, the collection with soft fabrics in fashionable colours. We designed it to have a ‘sporty glam’ technical cover, which is sporty yet elegant, with a soft effect - dedicated to those of you who like to be always on the move.

Its special characteristic is the Thermore® cover. Your child will be kept warm by the two foot muffs (for bassinet and stroller) with temperature-regulating padding.

A comfortable foot muff, even when not strictly necessary

Convenient in the autumn and in the winter

Don't like staying indoors, not even on very cold days? Use the two foot muffs, for bassinets and strollers, with highly breathable temperature-regulating padding, to protect your baby in a warm but not excessively hot embrace, even when on holiday in the mountains.

Useful in the spring

For longer springtime strolls, the zippable foot muff with windbreaker flap will protect your baby from the wind and sudden changes in temperature!

Handy in the summer

In the summer, you can store the foot muff compactly in the handy case provided. In this way, it does not take up room, and is always at hand as soon as the temperature drops, such as on a cool summer evening.

Glam bassinet that is also special!

The bassinet’s foot muff with Thermore® temperature-regulating padding has a windbreaker flap and a convenient zip for opening and closing. This allows you to uncover your little one when you go in and out of shops or heated settings, so that he or she does not sweat.

The Panorama Hood, with integrated handle bar in eco leather for easier transport, has a ventilation window and UPF 50+ protection against sun rays.
The All Seasons system controls air circulation in the bassinet, so it ensures protection during the winter and fresh ventilation in the summer.

The Comfort System allows you to adjust the back rest and the leg rest at the same time from the outside, so your baby does not slip down and is always in the best position.

The bassinet with EPS padding (for protection against collisions) is suitable for cars from birth (Group 0 - 0 to 10 kg), using the car kit (sold separately).

As your child grows, the modular system transforms into a stroller.

Have you seen the large, wide hood with sun visor? The hood is made with UPF 50+ (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) fabric to guarantee full protection against sun rays when your little one is lying down and napping.

The stroller of the modular system has its dedicated foot muff with Thermore® temperature-regulating padding.

The reversible seat has the Comfort Recline that allows you to adjust the back rest and the leg rest. The back rest tilts back to over 150° and the hood adjusts with it, so your baby can nap comfortably and safely.

Whether in heels or sneakers, you'll always look good with your Breeze

There are no Isofix bandaids, but…

“It’s a bandaid, for athletes, colourful or patterned”. This is one of the answers you might get if you ask someone what Isofix is. In actual fact it is relevant, in a way, because ‘Fix’ suggests something that fixes, that attaches. And this is precisely what Isofix technology does, fix the car seat to the vehicle body. It’s not “an industrial glue”, another opinion you might come across, but you do have a guarantee that once the car seat has been put in place, it becomes one with the car and remains in a safe, stable position even in curves or when driving on a rough road.

It’s a car seat base! And that’s not all

“Isofix is the name of the approved car seat base, the most modern kind”. It’s true, car seat bases were the first to introduce this safe technology. Our Viaggio Isofix System is composed of: Isofix Base 0+ 1 K, the Primo Viaggio SL car seat and the Viaggio1 Duo-Fix K car seat.

All latest generation car seats feature Isofix attachments capable of fixing them to special rings under the rear seats of vehicles registered since 2005.

The stability of Isofix bases can be further increased using a third anchorage point (a Top Tether belt or a supporting foot, called Support leg). Isofix is the name of the anchorage system, not a car seat technology.

It’s better for the health than many medicines

There are pills, bracelets and even chewing gum to prevent car sickness, but Isofix is not one of these; it’s not a medication. And yet some people think the name sounds like a medicine. But no pill can keep your child as safe in the car as this anchorage system.

It’s not just a matter of modern technology; there are other essential features:

1. It reduces the risks involved in incorrect installation of the car seat, an error that can frequently be committed with non-Isofix car seats.
2. It provides a very solid permanent connection between the car seat and the car body.
3. Test results leave no doubt: Isofix car seats are much safer.

It’s a ‘safety certificate’

Isofix is not “a company quality certificate”. Known as LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) in the United States and UAS (Universal Anchorage System) or Canfix in Canada, it is an international standard that has nothing to do with product quality and everything to do with safety. Many new parents have no idea what it’s all about and don’t fully understand the importance of having not only an Isofix car seat, but a vehicle set up for this anchorage system.

There are still a lot of old cars around and if you have a child in a car seat, it’s important to consider your child’s safety when you choose your car.

Attractive on the outside and technological inside: discover all its hidden qualities

A bassinet for newborns must be as welcoming and comfortable as the arms of mum or dad, in addition to being very protective, just like our elegant Navetta Elite bassinet, approved for use in cars.

At a first glance, the Elite Bassinet is striking for its design and elegance, with fashionable inserts and haute couture finishes. The handle is exclusive as well - built-in and in eco leather, patented by Peg Perego, it offers the ideal grip for manual carrying, and the advantage of lowering and raising the hood with just one hand.

There is a lot more to discover inside the bassinet. Here are all its hidden qualities.

Comfort System: what if you lift the backrest? Your child does not slide downwards 

Babies  do not just sleep in bassinets. When they are awake, they enjoy their time, exchanging loving glances with their mums. This means you need to modify the horizontal position (for sleeping) by lifting the backrest,  without causing your little one to slide downwards.

The COMFORT SYSTEM of Elite Bassinet allows you to adjust the position of the backrest and the leg rest at the same time. In this way your little one will always be in the best position. You can do it by simply rotating the knob on the front. Raise and lower - as easy as that!

All Seasons System: not afraid of changing seasons

And what when it is very hot, or very cold? The Navetta Elite bassinet has the All Seasons system that controls air circulation in the bassinet, so it ensures thermal protection inside during the winter and fresh ventilation in the summer.

This means you have everything to ensure sweet dreams in every situation, not least because the bassinet can be used as a rocking cradle, thanks to its extractable feet, or as a cot with the Bassinet Stand accessory. 

It is also a bassinet approved for use in cars

The Navetta Elite bassinet is approved for use in cars (group 0, from birth to 10 kg). It must be used with the attaching Kit Auto car kit (sold separately), and guarantees the highest safety in the case of front and side collisions, with protections for all the sensitive parts of the body.

All Side Impact Protection: super safety

Navetta Elite is made of polypropylene, a rigid, shock-proof material that is also hygienic because it does not absorb humidity. The EPS lining provides ideal thermal and acoustic insulation, which really makes your baby very comfortable inside the bassinet.

The 5 features of the Navetta Elite bassinet that really make the difference:

1. Simultaneous adjustment: using the specific knob, you can adjust the backrest and the leg rest at the same time, preventing your baby from sliding down into an uncomfortable position.
2. All seasons system: it allows you to adjust the internal air circulation from under the base, so no condensation forms. It fears neither heat nor cold - in the summer, for a fresh, ventilated environment, move the four small levers outwards to open the vent-holes. In the winter, to limit incoming air, move the levers inwards.
3. All side Impact protection: high protection against side collisions.
4. At home it becomes a cot to sleep in: the special shape of the base allows you to rock the baby as if in a cradle. Do you need stability while the baby sleeps? By pulling out two extractable feet under the base, the bassinet can no longer be rocked. You can also attach it to the Bassinet Stand (sold separately). 
   
5. It is a bassinet approved for use in cars and protects babies in the most sensitive areas. The Kit Auto car kit is sold separately.
6. And what about going for a walk? Just click it on! Navetta Elite is equipped with G-Matic, the automatic attachment system to fasten products onto the Peg Perego chassis.

The Navetta Elite bassinet is an example of that quintessentially Italian style that all admire and none can imitate. There is the beauty of design, the value of relating, of affectionately embracing a child and caring for his or her needs. Lastly, there is the ability to make every moment special through simple, unique, attractive and functional products.

How can you stay stylish when you’re out and about with baby? Will you be able to keep up your style when you become a mother?

Peg Perego's modular systems are made up of five elements:

Because driving in winter is a whole new ball game

As the weather changes and becomes colder, you should be aware that some of your car features - and even your driving style - should change. First of all, visibility is reduced. Mornings and evenings are darker, and in bad weather (rain, snow, fog, frost) driving safely can be more complicated. These are also times with higher traffic; times when you need to get behind the wheel to take your children to and from school, the nursery or their grandparents', not to mention getting to and from work.

Therefore, the first thing to do is drive more cautiously and reduce your average speed, with or without children on board. Next, you should use winter tyres, that is, tyres with a tread pattern suitable for wet or frozen roads. Alternatively, it is worth having snow chains on board. Your trusted mechanic will be able to suggest other frost protection measures, such as adding anti-freeze. In the boot, always keep some special accessories handy, such as a windscreen de-icer, gloves and boots.

How to travel with small children when it's cold outside

Ok, so you have read the previous section, and you now meet the basic conditions of safety for driving in winter. But what about the kids? While driving carefully and having the car properly equipped clearly increases their safety, there are a number of other issues that relate to them more closely. Before going out into the cold, you will dress your children up nice and warm. You have the lot: the winter clothes, the snowsuits, the gloves and woollen hats... After you've dressed them up to look like the Michelin man, it is time to place them on the car seat and buckle up. And of course, using the car seat has become a habit of yours, as well as a legal obligation...right?!?

Fastening the harness straps may not be as easy as you think. Or rather, you mightn't have too much trouble doing them up, but your child might not actually be buckled up safely. This is because puffy jackets can affect the safety of car seats, even going so far as making them dangerous. You'll have no trouble finding online videos of crash tests revealing the negative effect of winter jackets in the event of collision: they tend to make the child slip, and sometimes be thrown off the seat notwithstanding the buckled straps.

Therefore, check there is no slack in the harness straps or, better still, do not place your child in the car seat wearing a puffy jacket. Cover him up some other way, say with a Car seat cover or a warm blanket, or turn up the heat in the car. The same goes for adults: do not drive with excessively bulky jackets, as you run the very same danger.

Another thing to remember, although not so important from a safety perspective, is that your child might feel uncomfortable or unwell if excessively covered up.

Travelling by car with children: the winter survival kit

Here is a list of accessories that will help you protect your child from the cold, in and out of the car, without sacrificing on comfort:

• If you are still unsure how best to take your baby on his first drive, in addition to the Primo Viaggio SL or Primo Viaggio i-Size car seat, you may want to think of using the brand new and elegant Navetta Elite and Navetta XL,  both approved for use in the car (only with the car kit, sold separately).

• Choose wellbeing and hygiene on the go with the Clima Cover Car Seat in Tencel, a soft, natural, heat-regulating fibre that maintains the ideal temperature for your baby, adjusting the humidity level in all seasons.

• When it rains, no need to worry... you can make your Primo Viaggio SL or Primo Viaggio i-Size car seat waterproof with the special Peg Perego Rain Cover. It fastens with ease and, when the sun reappears, you can fold it up and store in compactly in the bag provided.

• Long trips? What you need are practical accessories to increase your child's comfort. It can be very helpful to use the Cup Holder Car Seat: just hook it to the compatible Peg Perego car seats and use it to hold a drink, a baby bottle or a bottle of water. To pack away the car seat, you can use the handy Car Seat Travel Bag.

With this short guide, you are sure to find the right accessory or product for you. If instead you still need to get everything and baby is fast on its way, then you could consider a modular system that includes both the bassinet and the car seat, the two most essential tools you will need in those early days to travel by car with you brand new baby.
