The best baby car sunshades

Little ones will love the cute animals featured on these Astarye solar protection sunshades. No suction cups or stickers are needed to attach, just wipe the window with a wet cloth to clean any dust, place the window shade on the window with the static cling side and apply pressure. We love that the sunshades also fold up small so you can pop them in the included bag.

One reviewer said: "These are fantastic, I can't believe they stay on as well as they do considering they're not that sticky. Even when I accidentally lower the window they wrinkle up and then go back to how they sat originally. Kids love the pictures too."

Made of a high-quality nylon mesh that is breathable and stretchy, this car side window sun shade from DIZA100 stretches to 42.00 "X 20.00" and will fit most car rear windows, ensuring a snug fit. Just slide the shade over the top of your door frame, pull it over the entire window and remove the backing paper. We really like how simple this is to use.

One reviewer said: "Wasn't really expecting much as they're very flimsy, but they're easy to put on, they stay where they're meant to (just drove 70mph on a motorway both rear windows down they didn't budge) and they keep the back of the car totally shaded for my child and dog. My small person can also see out which he likes, am glad I bought them and would definitely recommend."

We adore the SHADY car sunshade. Its unique adhesive tech allows the shade to stick to the glass while the window is open, too. How cool is that? It'll be sure to protect your tot from any harmful UV rays. Once fitted, this sunshade cannot be budged by even the most curious hands. We love the design - and it's easy to fit. A winner in our eyes.

Our Product and Lifestyle Writer, Samantha, said: "These were incredibly easy to install on our car windows, and we can actually have the windows in the back of the car down if the kids aren't in the car, which isn't possible with most other stick on sunshades. They're a really pretty pattern too, and our daughter likes playing a game of 'find the star, moon or sun' keeping her occupied on journeys. It comes with a QR code to make installing easier and they don't block too much vision out of the window either."

This budget buy from John Lewis & Partners promises to block 90 per cent of UVA and UVB rays. Fitting most 4 and 5-door cars, the mesh composition blocks glare but does not obstruct the view for your tot. This pack of two is simple but oh so effective, plus it's designed to be a universal fit, which may be handy if you change cars.

One reviewer said: "Really great product. Does the job perfectly. Cheap, easy to install and protects my little one from the sun. The only negatives are they get totally drenched when it rains and it obviously makes it a little more difficult to see how the rear side windows but these are very minor criticisms. Overall great product which I'd highly recommend."

Two attachment options allow for a customisable fit, helping to keep these Munchkin car sunshades securely in place. We like that the one-push retract button allows for easy use for older children when it's not sunny, while the white-hot heat alert system turns white when your car is too warm, ensuring your baby enjoys a safe and comfortable ride.

One reviewer said: "Have had these in my car for about 2 weeks and so far so good! I have a Vauxhall insignia so it doesn't cover the full width of the window but I didn't expect it too! However, the suction pads make it easy to move and adapt the blind if needed - I haven't had to do this so far. The blind hasn't budged at all so the suction is amazing! I love the side button you press to roll the blind back up if it isn't needed! So much easier to just have them there ready to use and then have them up on non-sunny days so my toddler can still be nosey out the window. Fully recommend - have bought a set for the grandparent's car."

These Car Shades are by no means cheap, but these Mother and Baby gold award winners are made to fit your car make and model exactly, ensuring a perfect fit. Easy to fit, they keep little passengers cool, block out bugs, add an extra level of security and feature UV protection and anti-glare. We think for some, they'll be worth the price.

One reviewer said: "Very well made and fitted the rear windows to my 23 plate ford focus. These are a million times better than the ones with suck pads. Should have got these to begin with."
