If there is something parents always need for a new baby, as well as for a toddles, it’s a blanket. You need something to keep the baby warm with in the car, on the couch, in the sitter in the kitchen, wrapped around the baby carrier and so on, and blankets tend to get dirty so it comes in very handy to have a few spared ones. If you are thinking about treating a new mommy or daddy to a baby blanket you have a great idea and to make it even better you should consider looking into personalized baby blankets that will let you monogram the blanket with the baby’s name. This is so easy to do and the result is a gift that is both personal and much needed.
Personalised baby blankets
These are blankets that include the name of the baby somewhere on the fabric. It is quite common that the name is printed on the corner but some brands might have other layouts. You should be able to choose between different colors and personalized baby blankets can also come in different materials. Choose something that you think will be appreciated both for the stylish look and for the smooth fabric. With babies the most important is the comfort but pretty design doesn’t hurt!
Spell the name right!
Don’t forget to double check how to spell that name! You think that it is obvious that Susanne is spelt just like that but your best friend thinks that it is obvious that the name is spelt Suzanne. Little Sue won’t care all that much but it is not so nice to come with a personalized blanket that has the wrong name on it because that is just what it is, even if we are just one letter off. You can discreetly ask about the name and how they spell it without revealing your surprise. In some cases you might even know before the birth and then you can arrive at the hospital with a much needed blanket that will make everyone smile.
Order the blanket online
It is easy to order the blanket online. You will find that online trusted shops like Amazon can help you with this service. It is easier to buy online than to try and find a local store that will help you with personalized baby blanket, even if you do find a store you should know that it most likely get the job done by the company that you can contact directly through your computer or iPhone.

While you are at it, why don’t you get another blanket for the sibling! Even if the big brother or sister is no longer a baby a blanket with his or her name will be very much appreciated and it is quite common that older siblings regress and become baby like when a new baby arrives. A good idea might be to have one blanket personalized for the sibling’s bear or doll. This could be a wonderful gift that will show that you really care about the family and that you realize that the older sibling, or siblings, also need some attention and pampering.
