When Should Baby Transition from Sleep Bag to Blanket?

The right time for babies to transition from a sleep sack to a blanket is a key milestone for parents to navigate. Generally, it’s safe to start using a blanket in the crib when your baby turns one year old. Before then, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends avoiding loose blankets in the crib to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

This doesn't mean you have to forgo the cuddly moments until then. gunamuna’s OEKO-TEXⓇ Standard 100 certified bamboo rayon blankets are perfect for tummy time, car rides, or sofa snuggles.
