Croscill Bedding - Good Christmas Gift

The bedding used in a babies crib should be soft and washable. Popular materials are knitted cotton, flannel material, or woven material with a high thread count. It is important for the sheets and bedding to be machine washable, as in the babies first months and years there will be a lot of mess and very little time for hand washing!

Typically, modern crib bedding sets come built in with a set of sheets (fitted, to ensure your baby's safety), a pillow, a sham, a comforter and of course, crib bumpers. If you are lucky you might also obtain a few extra pillows, laundry, bags or diaper holders along with those regular items.

If you have the option to purchase a bed in a bag set, then that would definitely be worth considering. These sets typically include the comforter, sheets, pillowcases, pillow shams and some even have the skirt to go around the box spring. These items are all packaged together in one bundle and by purchasing as a set you usually pay much less than purchasing them separately.

Before we go any further we have to stop and mention the number one rule in deciding on the right bed set "Safety Before Beauty". Long after the allure of all the cute accessories is faded away, the thought of your child's safety will forever be tattooed in your mind and heart. With things out there such as S. I. D. S.(Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) you have to put safety first when deciding how to decorate. We all have the urge to get any and everything colorful, pretty and new, but we have to think about the well being of the child over how well the child's room looks.

Blanket or comforter should not be used to keep the baby warm; instead he/she can be dressed in warmer clothing. The new born can get smothered by its own blanket which may suffocate the baby.

At night, even though they are fast asleep, they still move around and about their beds. We you tuck them in at night, the bedding are all fixed up, but when they wake up, it can look like a hurricane just passed by. There is a good solution when it comes to problems like these and that is to get your toddlers the perfect Bedding sets.

Another part that might be included in the set is a crib skirt or dust ruffle. This is a good part of a set in that it can add to the appearance of the crib. It will also be able to cover any storage areas underneath the crib.
