About Munchkin
Munchkin is a baby and toddler products company based in the Los Angeles area. Its range runs from sippy cups and bath toys to diaper pails, car-seat mirrors and safety items for caregivers.
Brica is Munchkin's travel line for getting little ones from place to place, and it includes the car window shades we review. On RevRated, two of those shades are recommended in our infant car sun shade roundup: the Brica Sun Safety Car Window Shade, whose White Hot indicator turns white when the cabin is too hot, and the Brica Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit Car Window Shade, which lets the rear window keep rolling down while the shade is fitted.

Why we recognized Munchkin
The RevRated Top Brand recognition isn't paid for and can't be applied for. We award it to the brands whose products consistently stand out in our category roundups. Munchkin earned it on the strength of the products below, evaluated the same way every product on this site is: checked against the specs, fitment data and verified buyer reviews, and judged on merit.
Munchkin products we rated highly
Munchkin Brica Sun Safety Car Window Shade (2-Pack)
Its White Hot heat-alert indicator turns white when the cabin gets dangerously hot, which gives a parent a glanceable read on the air a child is sitting in. The two-pack ships with both a suction cup and a frame clip, so you can use whichever holds better in your vehicle, and the Safe-View mesh dims glare without blacking out the window.

Munchkin Brica Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit Car Window Shade
The rear window still rolls down with this shade fitted. It stretches from 14 by 28 inches to 18 by 34, so one shade suits a wide spread of door-frame shapes, and it won an iF Design Award.
Read our Infant Car Sun Shades guide →What earned Munchkin the recognition
- Two Brica shades are recommended in our infant car sun shade roundup, each solving a different problem: a heat-alert indicator on one, an operable window on the other.
- The Sun Safety shade has a built-in White Hot heat indicator and gives parents two mounting options in one pack (suction cup or frame clip).
- The Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit shade lets the rear window roll down with the shade in place and stretches to fit a wide range of door frames.
- The Magnetic Stretch-to-Fit shade is an iF Design Award winner, from an established baby brand rather than an unbranded white-label seller.
