Experts Say a Security Blanket Could Help Your 8-12 Month Old Baby Sleep Better

February 6th, 2010

Kids Health, from Nemours posted an article on “Sleep and Your 8- to 12-Month-Old”.  If you are a parent struggling with how to help your child develop healthy sleep patterns and/or how to approach sleep issues your baby may be having, take a few minutes to review the article by clicking the title above.  It covers the following topics:

* How Long Will My Baby Sleep?
* Where and How Should My Baby Sleep?
* Encouraging Sleep
* When to Call the Doctor

In the article, Kids Health stated, “If your baby has a favorite toy or blanket that you feel is safe to have in the crib, it can be left for comfort. This is when “transitional” objects become important to babies. They help your baby transition from being with you most of the time to having some time away from you and becoming more independent.”

If you’re looking for a security blanket or any other unique baby blanket, browse our retail site at blanketmybaby.com.  With security blankets, it is recommended that you buy a few of the same blanket so that your baby will always have one available.  This way if one is in the wash, gets lots or is left at daycare your baby will still have one to establish the feelings of familiarity and comfort.
