A baby blanket is an essential part of every newborn’s first set of essentials. But choosing the perfect one isn’t always easy. Many parents start their search with the question:
A baby blanket made from organic cotton is the best choice for your child. Thanks to its natural fibers, it is breathable, temperature-regulating, hypoallergenic and – most importantly – wonderfully soft against sensitive baby skin.
A Knitted baby blanket can be used from birth. It’s perfect for keeping your little one warm in the stroller, wrapping them in your arms, or using it as a soft play mat. Important: for nighttime sleep in a bed or cradle, a sleeping bag is usually recommended as the safer option. During the day and on the go, however, a blanket offers warmth and a sense of security.
Whether as a cover for the car seat, a cuddly blanket, or a play mat – a baby blanket is wonderfully versatile. That’s why it shouldn’t be too big or too small. Our recommendation: 80×100 cm. This size lets you wrap your little one snugly while still being practical enough to use as a changing pad when you’re out and about.
Newborns cannot yet regulate their body temperature, which is why they need a light blanket even in the summer months as an extra layer of warmth. Later, the blanket can be used in many ways – as a play mat, cuddly companion, or practical changing surface.
Knitted blankets: Elegant knitted blankets with lace patterns are timeless and cozy. They provide warmth and comfort, fit harmoniously into any nursery, and can be used in many different ways.
Interactive baby blankets: Babies learn through play and discovery. An interactive blanket offers small gripping elements or varying textures, stimulating the senses and motor skills – perfect for the first little adventures on the floor.
Blankets with growth scale: A special highlight: baby blankets with a measuring scale. They keep your child warm while allowing parents to capture their growth month by month – a practical blanket and a beautiful keepsake in one.
Most parents prefer organinc cotton baby blanket because they are skin-friendly, breathable, and easy to care for. Knitted baby blankets also help regulate temperature: they keep your baby cozy and warm in winter, while being light and airy in summer.
When buying a baby blanket, the most important factor is the material. Blankets made from certified organic cotton are not only soft to the touch, but also free from harmful substances, as untreated natural materials are used. An OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification gives extra assurance that no chemical residues come into contact with your baby’s delicate skin.
Equally important is the right size: at 80×100 cm, a baby blanket is large enough to fold in half as a changing pad when you’re out and about, yet still compact and handy – ideal for wrapping in the stroller or using as a versatile everyday accessory. And last but not least: since spills and little accidents are inevitable in baby life, make sure the blanket is easy to care for and machine washable.
Whether as a cuddly blanket, knitted blanket, or practical everyday essential – the most important thing is that it suits your baby and offers comfort and warmth. It will accompany your little one through their first months and years, becoming a familiar and cherished keepsake for the whole family.
