Blankets
Parents will recognise cellular blankets from the maternity ward and they are the professional's choice for very young babies. The cellular construction of these blankets provides good insulation while allowing babies to breathe and air to circulate. Look for cellular blankets that are 100 per cent cotton, like those mentioned here, because these can be machine washed on a hot programme, which makes it easierto eliminate dust mites and allergens.
Mothercare's Cotton Cellular blankets feature an 'extra safe weave' and come in two sizes to fit a pram or crib (70 x 90cm) and to fit a cot or cot bed (120 x 155 cm). The blankets come in a range of pastel shades: lilac; lemon; aqua; cream and white and are priced 7 for the smaller blanket and 12 for the larger size.
