Baby blankets are a truly versatile buy - for both those early months and when the baby is older.
Apart being baby bedding use they can also be used in many other ways.
Swaddling - in the early days a light baby blanket is very handy for wrapping your baby up in (”swaddling”). Babies love being swaddled - it makes them feel safe and secure - after all, they were used to being held tight for 9 months in their mummy’s tummies.
Out and about - a baby blanket is the ideal size for folding around your baby in a stroller, pram or buggy to keep baby warm and free from cold and draughts. A normal household blanket will be much too bulky.
Size matters - A large baby blanket will be even more versatile. A larger than normal baby blanket means that you can use it at night, as a buggy or pram cover, or even during the day as a play mat. That way you get lots of use out of your baby blanket before you even remember the times you used it as an extra wrap or baby comforter.
