Family walking with stroller accessories

19 must-have stroller accessories in 2022

Whether you’re navigating city sidewalks or strolling down a forest path, your stroller takes you and your tiny co-pilot wherever you need to go. Trick it out with the perfect stroller accessories to make all your adventures a cinch.


Below, we’ll list 19 stroller accessories that we think both you and your child will love — from everyday accessories, like a cup holder and snack tray, to seasonal items, such as a stroller fan or a warm footmuff, for your baby. Start scrolling and strolling. 


Must-have stroller accessories


Everyday stroller accessories 


1) Cup holder


A cup holder (for you!) is a must-have stroller accessory. Effortlessly push your stroller with one hand and sip your favorite beverage with the other. It’s the little joys in life. 


If you’re skeptical about a stroller that’s easy to push with one hand, check out the lightweight Bugaboo Lynx.


2) Snack tray


Keep your child’s favorite snacks and drinks within reach with a snack tray and cup holder combination.  


Just keep in mind that, as simple as this accessory might seem, not all snack trays are created equal. For example, the Bugaboo snack tray features a sliding cover and ensures minimal spills since the cup holder is secured in an upright position even with the seat reclined. 


3) Standing board

If you’re out and about with two kids in tow, a double stroller is one great option. Another option is to attach a standing board to the back of the stroller so one can ride and one can stand. This one accessory offers so much versatility.


The Bugaboo Comfort wheeled board has both a sit and stand option for increased comfort for your child. It’s easily detachable so you can store it in the underseat basket and carry on.


4) Phone holder


A phone holder that mounts to the stroller handlebar allows you easy access to your phone. Look for one that rotates so you can view your phone horizontally or vertically. 


Directions to the next exciting destination? Coming right up. 


5) Stroller mobile


A stroller arch, or a stroller mobile, is like a crib mobile. It provides hanging entertainment for your baby. You can find a stroller mobile for both bassinet strollers and upright strollers. 


6) Pacifier strap


Every parent knows what it’s like to constantly pick up what your baby tosses out of the stroller. Pacis, bottles, toys, books, snacks — you name it, they’ve thrown it. 


To help with this, use a pacifier strap to connect their paci to the stroller so you won’t lose it as you go. These stroller straps can also be used to attach certain toys and the like. 


7) Lock


Some strollers fit through doorways with no problem or are easy to fold and carry, meaning you can take them wherever you go. 


But, if you don’t feel like folding and toting your stroller, use a stroller lock to safely leave it in a convenient spot. It’ll be ready and waiting for you.


Storage stroller accessories


8) Handlebar organizer


The Bugaboo organizer is a water-repellent, multi-pocket stroller organizer that keeps the essentials within reach and conveniently turns into a hand tote when you’re away from the stroller. Grab it and go! 


It has three easy-access pockets on the outside as well as two zippered pockets for more valuable items. Inside, you’ll find one large main compartment. With sturdy Velcro straps, it’s easy to attach to the handlebar and remove when needed.


9) Attachable bag 


Attachable stroller backpack


Our changing backpack is another bag that attaches easily to your stroller and can be removed to use as a stylish backpack. No one would know that you’re toting around diapers and all the rest. 


This wipe-clean, four-gallon capacity bag is rain-proof on the outside, spillproof on the inside, and made with 100% recycled fabrics. 


It comes with a padded changing mat for comfortable diaper changes on the go and two clutches to keep things organized.


And, of course, it attaches perfectly to your Bugaboo stroller, regardless of whether you have the seat configured so that your baby is facing you or the path ahead. 


10) Transport bag

Sometimes, you need to store things in your stroller, and sometimes you need to store the stroller itself. 


Invest in a transport bag that makes flying and riding a breeze. Look for one that offers carry handles, shoulder straps, or handy wheels. 


11) Bag hook


When you and your child are doing all the fun things and errands, too, you need space to tote your stuff. A bag hook is exactly what it sounds like — a hook that attaches to your stroller and allows you to hang bags, whether that’s your purse or your shopping bag. 


Speaking of bags, here are a couple of ideas for bags that are designed to attach directly to the stroller. 


Summer stroller accessories


12) Parasol


The weather doesn’t stop your family. Summertime stroller accessories to the rescue. 


For sunny days, turn to a parasol for your child. Stroller parasols attach to the stroller, providing shade and sun protection. The best parasols are adjustable so your child has shade no matter where the sun’s coming from. 


13) Sun canopy

A sun canopy is another stroller accessory that protects your child from the sun’s rays. Our breezy sun canopies provide shade while allowing the breeze to keep your child cool.


Bonus: Bugaboo sun canopies also let you refresh the look of your stroller so you never get bored. For example, you can easily choose one color for summer and a different color for winter.   


15) Fan


If things are extra hot, consider a battery-powered fan. Better yet, make it two — one for you and one for your toddler. 


This handy accessory wraps around the stroller handlebar, offering a cool breeze at the switch of a button. 


16) Mosquito net


To keep pesky mosquitoes away, purchase a mosquito net for your stroller. Airy and simple to attach, your baby will be riding easy. The only thing you’ll need is some bug spray for yourself. 


Winter stroller accessories

17) Wool seat liner


Baby, it’s cold outside! But that doesn’t have to keep you and your child from heading out. The Bugaboo wool seat liner is a must-have stroller accessory for soft and cozy rides. 


Made from 100% Woolmark certified materials, one side features pure wool and the other a knitted cotton jersey. Choose which side fits your needs best. 


18) Footmuff


Keep your baby warm with a footmuff to help regulate their body temperature. Our footmuff offers water repellent protection on the outside and breathable fabric on the inside. 


Dirty shoes from playtime? No problem. The footmuff has a built-in shoe shield to keep things clean on the inside. 


Plus, it is made with a two-way zipper so you can quickly unzip the top cover, converting the footmuff into a seat liner to adjust to changing temperatures.


For the coldest and wettest days, reach for our performance winter footmuff, made with responsibly sourced down filling that can be removed when the days start warming up. The adjustable hood protects your baby’s head, too.


19) Gloves


Last but not least on our list of stroller accessories: gloves to keep your hands toasty as you stroll. But, instead of regular winter gloves, we’re talking about heavy-duty mittens that attach to the stroller handlebar. 


They make it easy to slip your hands in and hit the road as well as slide your hands out to attend to your child. 


Stroller accessories for easy adventures



Your stroller makes all sorts of family outings possible. With the right stroller accessories, you and your child will be ready for whatever lies ahead, rain or shine! 


For everyday outings, outfit your stroller with accessories, such as a cup holder, snack tray, and wheeled board. When the weather turns cold or hot, make sure you have a sun canopy and fan or a winter footmuff and stroller mittens. 


And, of course, when storage is a necessity, take your pick from a hook, handlebar organizer, or attachable backpack. You’ll be ready to hit the road in no time.
