The Baby Blanket—A Necessity or a Nuisance

The Baby Blanket—A Necessity or a Nuisance

In this day and age of polar fleece and cute little baby caps and clothing, does the infant child really need a blanket? Some blankets are big and bulky and make it hard to wrap a baby in them without losing him in all the folds. Others are too small. They also slip and slide and hardly ever stay in place. Blankets have even been known to smother an infant. One time a friend had taken care of my baby son for the day. We made plans to meet along the road on my way home. There was a howling blizzard and he was all wrapped up and covered with a heavy blanket when she handed him to me. When I got back into my car and unwrapped him, I discovered that his head was on the wrong end of the bundle which we had been carrying so carefully. Now that couldn’t have been good!  Is all this wrapping up really necessary?

Since the beginning of time, baby blankets have been made out of every material known to man–from mosses and leaves to buckskins and furs. It’s a natural instinct in all of us animals to want to protect our babies and keep them warm. Have you ever noticed how a dog or a cat will curl up around their young, lick them, and keep them cozy? Even a mother hen will take her chicks under her wings and bring them next to her. I grew up hearing the story of my aunt’s birth in 1908. She was born at home on the farm and weighed only 1 ½ pounds. They put her into a cotton lined cigar box which sat on the oven door of the old wood cookstove. Aunt Anne lived to be 93 years old!

There are many types of baby blankets in use today. These include receiving blankets, crib blankets, and security blankets. The receiving or “swaddling” blanket is the first covering a newborn baby will have. This blanket is usually made of soft, lightweight, cotton flannel which is easy to wrap tightly around the baby. Swaddling gives the newborn the snug, secure feeling of the womb. Evidence suggests that swaddling may help reduce the symptoms of colic. Researchers believe that swaddling may also lessen the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), because it prevents babies from rolling onto their stomachs. With what we now know of SIDS, it is safer for young babies to sleep on their backs rather than on their tummies. Years ago we were told that sleeping on the tummy would give the baby a sense of security and make it easier for him to get rid of gases which can cause colic or upset stomach. It is important for babies to feel just as snug and secure on their backs as they would on their tummies. We can do this by placing the baby’s hands in a natural position over the chest and securely wrapping him in a cloth wrap. Swaddling helps keep the baby from fidgeting and jerking as they settle and sleep. Once the infant is asleep his startle reflex is less likely to awaken him between sleep cycles. This makes a longer, more settled sleep for the baby and therefore helps mom and dad sleep better, too.

Baby security blankets come in many sizes, colors, weights, and textures. The term “security blanket” gained in popularity when Charles M. Schulz put the character “Linus” in his Peanuts cartoon strip. As you probably know, Linus drags his trusty blanket around with him wherever he goes. Linus isn’t a baby, but a little boy who feels comfortable with his blankee. A newborn usually can’t tell one blanket from another as long as it’s soft. By the time the baby gets 6-12 months old, he has his routine and certain items he likes and others he dislikes. Parents are the ones who have given him this routine and the items to have and hold. The baby by this time is familiar with certain objects—many times a soft toy or a blanket (sometimes both). These items provide comfort at nap time or bedtime and make it much easier for the child to sleep contentedly. When travelling and sleeping in strange places, the familiar smell and feel of the security items help the baby rest comfortably. Some mothers have duplicate blankets so that there is a chance to wash the dirty one. This doesn’t always work and sometimes the security blanket can get real scuzzy. I’ve seen a 10 year old girl who keeps a little satin corner of her ragged security blanket hidden in her pocket at school, so that the other kids won’t think she’s a baby. But that little piece makes her feel confident and secure. Teenagers (especially girls) like to take their soft blankets to snuggle up in on the bus ride home after a tiring sporting event.

A crib blanket is usually larger. Some are fleecy and others are quilted. But either way, they are soft and cozy. Some babies like the fuzziness and others like the satiny feeling. A keepsake blanket can be any blanket, but many come with the child’s name and birth date embroidered on them. This makes the blanket especially personal for the youngster and also makes a very welcome and useful gift.

BabyBlanketBabe.com is a website which offers a wide variety of baby blankets. Most of them are available with personalization. They also have a line of smaller security blankets that are handy for travel. These feature an animal head, cozy softness and the satin edge that many young ones like to rub against their innocent little faces when they get sad or sleepy.

Various Uses for Baby Blankets

Various Uses for Baby Blankets

Baby Blankets are one of the most given gifts that anyone is given when they are anticipating a new infant. Many times, the new parents are showered with blankets at baby showers and it is not uncommon to end up with far more blankets than you can truly use with your infant. There’s no reason to turn down a new blanket though. There are quite a few things that you can do with a baby blanket.

You could possibly use an extra baby blanket as a wall hanging. Considering that a lot of baby blankets are decorated with bright colors and entertaining images that little ones enjoy, that are the perfect way to add extra fun and color to the nursery. They also are useful in helping to stop drafts that could make baby cold.

Another great use for an additional baby blanket is to merely use the blanket to add a bit of color to the nursery. You can hang the blanket over the back of a couch to bring some more color in and tie the seat into the room’s theme for example. This also gives you an extra blanket to use in case the baby falls asleep when you’re cuddling with him when in the chair or if you need to get one real quick during the night.

You can use a baby blanket as a decoration over a windowpane. A lot of newborns do not like bright light, and including a baby blanket is the perfect way to enable your infant to get the sunlight she should have without getting too much. The daylight will be filtered through the blanket, and child will get to get pleasure from the brilliant colors made even brighter by the sun filtering through the blanket. Adding a blanket to the windowpane will also help safeguard baby from any chilly drafts.

A baby blanket is the perfect toy to play peek-a-boo. There is no child that does not get pleasure from a good game of peek-a-boo. You can hide beneath the edge of the blanket then pull it away to pop out at your little one. This is sure to set off fits of giggles and is a good way to bond with your baby. Another excellent way to use a baby blanket at play time is as a play mat. Basically lay the blanket down on the rug and let your baby get her tummy time in that way. It allows your little one to be on a softer surface than the carpet, while still getting the time she needs to explore.

Baby Blankets make superb liners for car seats. They are ideal to keep your child warm if they fall asleep while you’re driving a car or if the weather is chilly outside. You can simply flip the edge over your infant to keep them warm. The stroller is one more great spot to use a baby blanket. Babies adore being in the stroller, but if the wind is chilly or the temperature is too cool, they can get chilly quite easily. Adding a baby blanket and tucking it close to your baby when he is in the stroller is a good way to use the blanket and keep your youngster content and snug.

Animals are good for little ones, and quite a few people worry about introducing their dogs and cats to their infants. A baby blanket can help relieve the transition. Merely wrap your child in a blanket, and after that, once the child’s odor is on the blanket, add it to your dog’s bed. The dog will rapidly get used to the babies smell, and you can relax knowing your child won’t be seen as an intruder.

Baby Product Consumers Agree “Cutesy” is Out, Chic is In

ELKTON, MD (PRWEB) May 14, 2004

Contemporary parents no longer need to contend with baby accessories of the baby pink or blue variety. Consumers are begging for choices beyond bunnies and teddy bears. The Fancy Babies Collection Inc., a chic new company is redefining the baby marketplace. With silk brocades, ultra-plush velboa and bold eclectic retro cotton print, baby blankets have never looked better. These stylish alternatives are part of the premier line available for both children and babies.

Wendy Jones, nationally known motivational speaker, author, and mother of four, launched this innovative online boutique www.fancybabiescollection.com based on personal experience.“I find that most baby items in the marketplace offer a typical ‘baby color palette’ of blue, pink, yellow, and mint green. Consumers are forced into a set pastel color scheme and design for nursery décor, blankets, and baby clothing,” said Wendy.“In contrast, the baby gear business has embraced current trends while designing for practical solutions. The features for strollers rival the features of the newest sleek automobile. Something as simple as a baby blanket, a definite necessity and one of the most used baby products certainly has unlimited potential for incorporating more design choices.”

Experts in this business agree. Kathy Nielson, a Senior Executive with BabyZone.com, one of the country’s most visited online portals for parents, experienced the lack of variety in shopping for her own new baby.“I started looking for baby bedding at the beginning of my pregnancy. I asked friends for referrals, visited all the baby stores and bedding websites, and found a lot of the same. Blankets that lacked color and pattern; very few were soft or even used interesting materials. I saw Wendy’s designs for The Fancy Babies Collection and was ecstatic. A variety of beautiful blankets that addressed what many consumers look for in the marketplace with little success. Silky, soft fabrics, interesting patterns and finally, a variety of colors! This new company offers our users something we just have not seen before. Unique, fresh, funky, high quality blankets you just won’t find in your average baby store. New moms now have stylish and sophisticated options for the crib,” said Kathy Nielsen.

Doing what other designers have been neglecting to do, Fancy Babies Collection Inc. will change with the seasons and trends, debuting additional lines as 2004 unfolds.“If specific patterns or colors are the trend for seasonal fashion, then why not mimic that in baby accessories? My collection meets two basic needs, a blanket that provides comfort for the child and complements parents’ taste.” Searching for the best possible fabric with colors, textures and patterns and using an “expert” test panel, Wendy created over twenty unique styles of blankets under two distinct lines — the Silk Brocade Collection and the Vintage Cotton Collection.

As CEO and Designer, Wendy oversees production and operations with plans to evolve the company into offering nursery décor as well. This includes the creative development of signature wallpaper, borders, murals and wall art. While showcasing top interior decorators and designers, Fancy Babies Collection Inc. intends to take nursery décor to the next level. These hand-selected designers will be featured on the website www.fancybabiescollection.com. The Fancy Babies Collection Inc. is committed to provide elegant and practical solutions for parents without the ongoing expense of drastic décor change as the child becomes older. From idea to enterprise, Wendy Jones feels confident that Fancy Babies Collection Inc. will become a benchmark for emerging trends in the baby accessory marketplace.

About The Fancy Babies Collection Inc.

Headquartered in Elkton, Maryland, The Fancy Babies Collection Inc. products are available on a fully secured website www.fancybabiescollection.com Visitors can sign up for the “FB Trends Alert” e-zine featuring interior designers and their nursery creations.
