Baby Boy Crib Bedding Important Pointers
Last week I accompanied my news reporter friend to a seminar organized by a Baby Care Organization. It was mainly on Baby-Safety. An estimated 2, 500 new born babies die every year. The researchers found that many SIDS are caused due to suffocation by extra accessories like pillow, blankets etc. Here I'm presenting the views of expert pediatricians about crib sets for new parents.
The other factor to consider is cost. The better the quality the higher the cost so you should check for that which suits you in terms of quality and the money you are looking to spend. You should look for stores that offer discounts and include many items in the baby bedding sets. If you know how to knit, then you can make some of the items yourself and cut down on the cost. Remember the money saved can be used to buy other things that the baby will require. To avoid buying a whole new set again if you are planning to get another baby soon, you can try purchase gender neutral items.
Construction crib Bedding sets for boys is an excellent choice. Construction is the epitome of little boys, who are born with a need to know how to build things and find out things work. Little boys are fascinated with tractors and excavators. Bright colors are also good for a baby. Bright colors are proven to stimulate children's developing brain.
Build a Bear "Friendship is Furever" girl bedding set is the perfect way to express your love to your special girl. By sharing the meaning of the heart, star, flower, and bear symbols she will grow up knowing what love is. Not because you bought her the girl bedding set, but because she will see you demonstrating over and over her mother's love in giving of her time.
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.
You will also need to check with the parents to see what type of crib has been purchased. Some colors go best with certain finished cribs. Also, others will convert to toddler beds, daybeds or full size beds and you will want to coordinate the bedding set to make the overall theme of the room.
If you are planning to decorate your infant crib bedding set with a theme you can simply go for attractive colors, cartoon characters, and animal pictures. When you choose the colors, keep in mind that colors like blue and green have a calming effect, cream or white will make the room feel less cozy, and bright colors are warm. Study the movements and gestures of your baby to note his preference in colors and then you can make him/her happy by decorating the bedding with that particular color.
All bedding should be washed before the baby arrives. It is advisable to do this for sanitary reasons. It is also advisable that more than one set of sheets and bedding is purchased. The mess a baby will make in the early days will mean there is little spare time to keep washing!
