Abstract
A foldable canopy, primarily for baby strollers and the like. The canopy comprises a top member, a rear n,,ember and a pair of side members formed from a unitary planar foldable material such as cardboard, plastic and the like. The material is cut and scored to provide a preselected pattern which when folded into its fully assembled configuration, provides a convenient means for attachment to a stroller for blocking sunlight, rain, snow and other inclement environmental conditions which might otherwise reach the child in the stroller to which the canopy is connected. The canopy is configured to be installed at a position above and separated from a child in the stroller so that it does not otherwise interfere with the safety and comfort of the child.
