For some expectant parents, baby blankets may be fairly low down on the list of priority buys.
My advice is to think it over - an organic cotton baby blanket is a truly versatile buy – for both those early months and when the baby is older.
in the early days a baby blanket is very handy for wrapping your baby up in (”swaddling”).
Out and about – a baby blanket is the ideal size for folding around your baby in a pram or buggy to keep them warm and free from cold and draughts. A normal household blanket will be much too bulky.
Size matters – Make sure that you choose a large baby blanket of at least one metre square. 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.
