What is it with babies and their blankies? Give a personalized baby blanket as a gift and you will be associated with a treasured possession for many years to come. These coverlets have been a source of comfort and security for babies almost since the beginning of time. The beloved snuggle-source virtually becomes an extensions of the tiny human being. Many a mom has discovered that bath-time for blankie leads to major anxiety in baby and may even give rise to a tantrum.
The cuddle companion can be a silky receiving coverlet, a soft swaddle style, or a throw that has been lovingly and delicately woven. Every baby has his or her personal favorite and beware the adult who thinks she has the right to pry it away...
This is a baby nursery gift idea that will always be welcome. A vast variety of styles and textures are yours to choose from. For a newborn, a personalized baby blanket in a swaddling style may be just what is needed to recreate the familiar womb-like security. These designs make it easier for clumsy siblings to hold the new baby securely and safely. They come with a foam insert for extra neck support during the first weeks. In some instances, velcro straps are attached for easy wrapping and unwrapping. The swaddling coverlets are manufactured from the softest of flannels and can be washed in your machine. Often the label comes with clear pictures detailing how to use it correctly.
Babies love animal buddies. Personalized baby blankets combined with animal antics are a sure winner. There are pups with perky ears, dainty ducks, and frogs with friendly smiles. Or opt for a safari style sporting the most lovable lavender elephant, blue bear or a mom-and-baby giraffe pair.
By opting for a little taggy blankie, you give a gift with a purpose. While still the best for snuggles, it has been designed with vivid, colorful rows of tags perfect for tactile stimulation. Watch as a delighted baby goes on a treasure hunt, using plump inquisitive fingers, teething gums and bright eyes to examine this newly discovered gem. The coverlet comes with a beautiful embroidered message and adorable applique work.
Knitted personalized baby blankets have the added benefit that the lettering has been knitted into the design. This will therefore last for as long as the item is in use. Look for machine washable lines. Another favorite is cozy, dreamy polar fleece with the name and date of birth embroidered in bright colors.
Try to be as practical as possible in your choice. Remember that this item needs to be up to serious multi-tasking over an extended period. While the main use will be at home, it also has to do duty during stroller outings, adventures in the car seat, or overnight visits in strange homes. Becoming a world traveler with the protection of a trusted blankie companion close by is simply much more tolerable.
Resilience and the ability to collect loads of frequent-washing miles are prerequisites when it comes to selecting personalized baby blankets.
