Why don't we ever cover a stroller with a tetra diaper?

The article discusses why covering baby strollers with Tetra packaging is harmful due to poor ventilation and increased heat retention. It references studies from the University of Sydney showing that even thin materials can trap heat inside the stroller, raising temperatures by 3–4°C. The piece explains that while Tetra packaging appears breathable, it blocks airflow and creates a 'heat trap,' increasing the risk of dehydration, overheating, and severe conditions like heatstroke or SIDS. Experts recommend alternatives such as mesh UV protection, natural shade, and regular monitoring rather than using covers that restrict air circulation.
