Review: Organic Cotton Swaddle Blanket, by Aden & Anais

Aden and Anais make the best swaddle blankets that I can find. They are the softest swaddle blanket on the market, made of muslin they allow baby's body temperature to regulate itself. This swaddle blanket is chemical and pesticide free. The muslin a is light open weave fabric with a rich and lengthy history in many cultures. These award winning wraps are woven with 100% organic cotton muslin certified by GOTS - global organic trade standards. The global industry organic certification leader is environmentally and socially responsible for manufacturing. Aden and Anais wraps are produced with 100% organic cotton and the entire manufacturing process uses organic practices, including the use of recycled water. Everyone wins when you use the Aden & Anais swaddle - baby, mother, the environment and humanity.

I use this swaddle blanket for everything. Most swaddle blankets are too
small for much else other than the intended purpose. Not only does the
larger size of this blanket make it easier to use, but it makes it
practical for many other purposes. I like to use it as a blanket while
taking walks with the stroller, especially in the summer or as a cover
when carrying baby in the icy winter winds. It works great folded up as
a burp cloth - if nothing else is around. It is easy to wash and holds
up well to washing often. Most blankets become aged and ragged over time
due to laundering, but this one actually gets softer and softer the more
you wash it. It folds up nice and fits into a gift bag made from the
same organic cotton that is included with it. Highly Recommend!
