What Are Cuddle Bug Security Blankets?
Cuddle Bug Security Blankets are security blankets (also known as a comfort blanket or simply, a “lovey”) for babies and toddlers. Kids just love these soft, cuddly blankets. They are also used as light blankets for naps, nursing drapes, teething and peek-a-boo toys, spit up cloths - you name it! What a wonderful idea for a new baby gift or for a baby shower gift!

Our Blankets Grow With Your Child
Cuddle Bug Blankets are the only lovey blankets made of three different fabrics -- terry cloth on the front, flannel on the back, and completely bound by silky satin -- to give baby lots of interesting textures to explore. For infants, this tactile stimulation is especially important as they develop their sense of touch. As they begin to teethe, they love to gnaw on the terry cloth side of the blankets.
   The use of a blanket has several advantages over a stuffed animal or other toy. A blanket has no small parts, like eyes or buttons, that can fall off and pose a choking hazard to baby. And the soft fabrics of our blankets naturally absorb your child’s unique scent, which is important to your child.
   Usually around their first birthday, babies naturally begin to bond to a blanket or stuffed animal, regardless of the parents’ unique parenting style. It is important to note that attachment to a lovey is not a sign that a child has not been nurtured by her parents or that they have not bonded. Actually, the opposite is true. Parents who respond to a baby’s needs for assurance will instill confidence and self-esteem in their little one. It is this inner strength that will give the child confidence to slowly learn the needed skill of self-comfort.
   As baby grows, toddlers and preschoolers will begin to incorporate their blankets into their play and pretend time: hiding toys under the blankets, playing peek-a-boo, and wrapping dolls and stuffed animals. This is a wonderful way to stimulate creativity and imagination.
   No matter what stage your child is in, a Cuddle Bug Security Blanket is a perfect little companion.

Cuddle Bug Blankets Come In Five Beautiful Colors
Cuddle Bug Blankets come in six beautiful color combinations (French blue, pink, yellow, peach and our newest color, lavender). See choices below. The coordinating satin border includes one of two different nursery-rhyme theme ribbon insets, which add a touch of whimsy to the design. All the characters from Hey Diddle Diddle dance on the lavender and yellow blankets, and Humpty Dumpty (before his great fall!) sits on his wall on the pink, peach and blue blankets. All blankets come with a multicolor, juvenile-style patterned flannel as the reverse fabric. Their size (approximately 14” x 22” ) is perfect to go everywhere--crib, car seat or stroller.

Easy To Care For & Handcrafted In The USA
Cuddle Bug Blankets are easy care machine wash and dry. For more information, please see Care Instructions. The terry cloth and flannel are 100% cotton, and the satin is 100% polyester. All blankets are proudly crafted in the USA.

What Experts Say About Security Blankets
Many babies choose these blankets as their lovey or comfort item--the thing they cannot go to sleep without or need to snuggle in times of stress. As respected child development author, T. Berry Brazelton, M.D. points out in his book, Touchpoints:

“Putting a toddler to bed at this age is not for the fainthearted. The ritual of a rocking chair and a bedtime story certainly helps. A lovey--a blanket or a bear--become even more critical at bedtimes. She can fall back on it during the day and at waking periods at night. Parents often feel a bit uncertain about loveys, especially when these are ratty and pathetic. They think that a child with a lovey looks neglected. Actually, the opposite is true in my experience. When we evaluate a child at the Children’s Hospital in Boston without any knowledge of her background, we are happy to see a child who can comfort herself with a thumb or a lovey. This child has already demonstrated her inner strength. She shows us that she has been nurtured at home. The ability to self-comfort is enhanced by parents who nurture.”¹

Further, The Good Housekeeping Illustrated Book of Pregnancy and Baby Care states:

“By age eight or nine months, most children form a strong attachment to a favorite toy, a blankets, or a special object. This powerful need for something cuddly will only grow stronger after the first birthday. Experts say it’s a wonderful way for a toddler to cope with the fears and frustrations of growing up, so don’t worry about it or try to persuade your baby to give it up. Keep it handy. Tell baby-sitters about it, and be assured that having a security blanket will help her as she separates from you. If she adopts a blanket, cut it in half or buy a duplicate one, so that you have a spare should she lose the original or when it needs to be washed.”²
