Abstract
An infant-protecting sunshade for use in a land vehicle such as an automobile with an infant car set or a stroller. The sunshade is a unitary member stamped in the shape of a flat mushroom from flat sheet rubber and bent at fold lines to form a hood having a back insertable for support behind an infant car seat, a forwardly foldable top, and first and second downward sides, foldable up and securable by hook and loop fastening over the top when not in use. Being flexible, either or both sides can, in tight quarters, be rolled up to pass an obstruction such as the inside wall of an automobile.
