1. A stroller comprising:
a frame having a rear handle;
a plurality of support legs attached to the frame;
a wheel attached to a lower end of each support leg;
a seat attached to the frame, the seating having an internal Peltier device for selectively heating or cooling the seat, the internal Peltier device disposed between a pair of sheets to form a Peltier assembly that is installed within a lining of the seat, such that the Peltier assembly is beneath an outermost layer of the seat along both a lower portion of the seat and a seatback portions of the seat;
wherein the pair of sheets are made of a material having a high thermal conductivity such as to help to enhance the heating and cooling properties of the Peltier device;
a blanket removably secured to the seat via one or more fastener; and
an electronics housing comprising a battery, a plurality of battery ports, a temperature sensor, a processor, a non-transitory computer readable medium operatively connected to the processor, and a logic stored in the non-transitory computer readable medium that, when executed by the processor, causes the stroller to perform a method
wherein the method performed regulates the temperature of the Peltier device by activating the Peltier device to a preset temperature, detecting a temperature of an area within the seat, and modifying that temperature based on a temperature setting determined by a temperature control button disposed on the handle;
wherein the Peltier device is deactivated if the current temperature of the area within the seat is greater than a threshold safe upper temperature.
