Available mid-January, this organic crib quilt from Jennie Argie and Andrew Thornton is amazing. I love its modern simplicity, and its theme and color scheme are perfect for a boy or a girl.

Etsy seller KnottedWear has invented the Pumpkin Sack Wearable Baby Blanket, to help keep baby swaddled from crib to car seat. Its detachable swaddle has an opening for easy diaper changes. It’s simple and stylish, and a solution for keeping baby warm in a variety of situations. Inventor Carlee Cash explains, “simply slip baby in and secure snaps on side and over shoulders… baby is ready for a nap or an outing. Then, wrap the swaddle around baby’s waist with arms in or out and you are ready to go (swaddle is also detachable via Velcro in back). If you need to get baby from a nap to run an errand and don’t want to disturb her, not a problem… just get her from the crib and place her in the car seat… with the bottom hole, any bottom car seat latch can be used. And, diaper changes are a snap… just undo the Velcro at the bottom, pull baby’s legs out and change that diaper (great for middle of the night diaper changes)”.

Each Pumpkin Sack measures about 28 inches long and 14 inches wide and is designed to fit sizes from newborn up to 6-9 months. They can be custom-made to specific desired lengths or widths. A variety of fabrics and styles are available, and they sell for $34.50 at KnottedWear.

We have a small collection of BlaBla’s toys. Our BlaBla backpack, in particular, has been a huge hit. The company’s products are extremely well-made, using fair trade practices, which helps you feel good about your purchase. For all of those reasons, this baby blanket is a wonderful choice for gift-giving or pampering your own baby. I love the retro-inspired appearance, and the butterfly is an awfully special touch. You can purchase one of these fine blankets for $60 at rsavenue.com.

etsy seller wildglow makes some unique, glow in the dark pillowcases that kids (and adults) will love. The style pictured here, Blue ABC, is the one my son uses. One side of the pillowcase has the alphabet printed in blue letters, and the other side looks like nothing, but is really the alphabet in fluorescent letters. The first night I put it on his pillow, I had it flipped over to the regular alphabet side so he didn’t notice anything. Later on, before he went to sleep, however, I turned it over, and he was quite surprised. Now, he can’t wait to see it glowing at him as soon as we turn off the light. The letters give off enough glow to replace a night light near the bed. Screen-printed with a non-toxic, water-based ink, these pillowcases are soft on children’s delicate skin.You can purchase one of these neat pillowcases for your own child (or perhaps yourself!) for just $10.

Baby Zoowon makes blankets that are soft for baby yet still stylish to satisfy mom’s sense of fashion. This Naomi Ruffle Blanket is a great example. Handmade with 100% cotton fabric on one side and a white minky fabric on the other, the blanket also has a small fabric elephant in the corner. Blankets measure 25″ x 35″, and loveys are 19″ x 20″. The best part about Baby Zoowon, however, is that for every blanket purchased, Baby Zoowon donates a blanket to a child in need. Definitely something to consider this holiday season. You can purchase this blanket for $55 (or lovey for $35) at BabyZoowon.com, where a variety of other styles of blankets, plus bibs and gift sets, are also available.

It’s no secret that I love Etsy.com. There are just so many original pieces to be found and the hunt is thrilling. The Modern Play Blanket in my favorite mod zoo print is 12” x 13” and comes with a detachable ball, ribbon tag, and fabric flap attached to it for baby to play with. It’s rue to provide fun on the go or at home. Completely snugly with a fuzzy backing and machine washable, it is the ideal choice for a lovey. Best of all? The price is $20. By seller 2littlehooligans, it’s a definite baby Christmas gift anyone would love.

We have a nature themed playroom, with prints of trees, a lovely bluish-green paint color, and green toile curtains in it, so I thought the BlueBird Cage Mini Décor Pillow would fit in perfectly. If you feel the same way, I’m sure the sweet birds and perfectly placed ladybugs are sure to delight any children who come to play in your play zone will love it as well. 7 ” tall x 6 ” wide and $18 from Etsy seller  mymimi, it’s a nice addition to a child-friendly room.

I’m loving the bright colors on this Two Tinas Signature Blanket. Although this product is available in a number of color schemes for both boys and girls, this one is particularly striking. While one side is made from this bright green, pink, and orange floral print, the other is a soft pink plush. It features a monogram and your baby’s name can be hand-embroidered on its tag.
