In recent years, parenting trends have swung from more modern to more traditional. Cloth diapers and glass bottles have become popular as parents try to return to a more classic way of parenting. Some of these trends, however, are easier than others. One classic parenting technique that is easy to adopt is swaddling. Swaddling helps babies sleep longer and deeper, and is a great way for parents to connect with their baby. It’s also super easy and fits well into any lifestyle, no matter how busy you are.
For those interested in swaddling, a great place to buy swaddling wraps is Aden + Anais, an online store that sells lots of great products for babies, including the best swaddling wraps money can buy. Rather than the traditional heavy fabric, Aden + Anais makes their cloths out of 100% cotton muslin for more comfortable sleeping. The muslin is lightweight and allows babies to self-regulate their body temperature, so they don’t get too warm while they’re asleep. It also holds up well over time, in fact, the more you wash the wraps, the softer they get.
Aden + Anais offers lots of different patterned swaddling wraps, including the super cute Wishing Star Swaddle 4 Pack. This set offers four swaddling wraps, each with a soothing, attractive pattern on white muslin cloth. The cloths are generously sized, so it’s easy to swaddle a baby no matter how experienced you are. Also, the large size means that they can be used for all kinds of other uses, like a burping cloth, impromptu blanket, car seat cover or anything else you can think of.
Although my daughter is far too old for swaddling, I still found plenty of uses for the swaddling wraps. They were the perfect light blanket for nap time, the right size to cover a car seat when my daughter got in the car covered in mud and made for a great changing table cover in a pinch. The fabric is super soft and, as promised, only got softer with use. No matter what the age of your child, you will definitely find yourself using Aden + Anais’ swaddles time and time again.
Aden + Anais has won tons of awards and recognition for their products, and it’s easy to see why. A favorite of celebrity moms everywhere, they’ve also been featured in lots of child magazines, and have won awards from iParenting and Creative Child Magazine. The Wishing Star Swaddle 4 Pack is great for all parents of young children, and also makes a perfect baby shower gift. They’re super versatile, always come in handy, and are easy to use and wash. No matter what the occasion or circumstance, you’ll be glad you have Aden + Anais’ swaddle cloths on your side.
