The Sailing Softly essentials gift set is all about comfort and is the perfect starter pack for a new mom. Beautifully designed in sweet blue hues with a baby boy in mind, it includes Lulujo’s most popular muslin products within a perfectly wrapped set for easy gifting.

The generously sized (120cm x 120cm) cotton muslin swaddling cloth is perfect for more than just a good swaddle. It also makes the perfect lightweight blanket, nursing cover, portable crib street, stroller cover, changing mat and will easily become a child’s favorite blanket to tote around the house as they age into toddler-hood. The mini muslin clothes (70cm x 70cm) make great receiving blankets, burp cloths, cloth diapers, cleaning cloths (for spit ups or spills), lightweight blankets and security blankets. The beautifully matched muslin cotton wash cloth is absorbent and soft on the skin.

For moms who already love a good swaddling blanket, you’ll love Lulujo’s extra-large all-in-one muslin cotton wrap made with finely woven muslin cloth. Soft and breathable, these wraps not only help baby feel safe and secure while swaddled; they can be used for a variety of reasons. We particularly love this gender-neutral Aqua Circles Cotton Muslin Wrap for those who want to keep their baby’s gender a secret until birth.

Lulujo’s extra-large all-in-one bamboo muslin wraps are a delicate, silky soft natural alternative to the muslin cotton wraps. Babies will love the silky soft texture and moms will love the versatility and range of uses. Not only used for swaddling, these wraps can also be used as a blanket, a nursing cover, a portable crib sheet, a change mat, a stroller cover, and more. We particularly love this Blue Chevron that is obvious for baby boys. If you have a little girl on the way, it’s also available in pink chevron.

If you are looking for a blanket that will last from birth straight through the toddler years and will surely be loved the whole way through, then Lulujo has the perfect Childhood blanket for you. Soft to the touch and made with two layers of cozy fabric, this dual layer muslin has bold and attractive stripes in addition to the soft white jersey. Perfect for both warmth and comfort!

Teething Necklace and Stroller Toy by Chewbeads

About Chewbeads

Chewbeads was founded by Lisa Greenwald and her husband in 2009, after she discovered that her young child loved to chew on her necklaces, and she did not want him to do so due to exposure to unwanted chemicals and the possible choking risk. They set out to create a line of chic jewelry that both moms and babies would enjoy; it had to be soft, safe and stylish. And thus, Chewbeads was born!

Key features like solid silicone beads and a breakaway clasp make this piece the perfectly safe solution for your teething baby to chew while bonding with you.

These teethers are also 100% silicone and bendable enough for baby to squeeze and pull without breaking. The Gramercy Stroller Toy does not contain any detachable parts, so you know that baby can play with Chewbead’s toys safely, without the risk of choking.

Educational Toys from Galt

About Galt

Galt has been around for over 50 years, creating beautiful, classic, educational toys for babies and children. These toys are developed to help foster learning and fun in your children ages 0-10. Each Galt toy is thoughtfully created and designed to maximize your child’s learning while he/she is having lots of fun during play.

Product

Galt offers such an array of toys that truly help your child learn while having fun. The Stacking Tower is one of our favorites, because it encourages the development of motor skills. Your little one will also learn persistence and hand-eye coordination, as he/she learns how to stack these cups one at a time, as well as experience the thrill of knocking over a giant tower, over and over again. This toy was developed by Dr. Miriam Stoppard, one of the U.K.’s top parenting experts. Each set comes with 7 stacking cups, and a sweet yellow flower to put on top of the tower. This stacking tower set also helps your child learn counting and colors, all while having a blast!

Galt’s Shape Sorter is a classic, impeccably made wooden toy that will also help your child develop fine motor skills, as well as colors and shapes. This is an heirloom-quality toy that you’ll be able to pass down through multiple children, and your little one will love trying to match each colorful wooden shape into the proper spot. This shape sorter also helps develop hand-eye coordination and manual dexterity, and was developed by Dr. Miriam Stoppard as well.

Your little one will adore the Ted & Tess Carousel. With just slight pressure on the yellow button (easy enough for a baby to do), this top spins ’round and ’round, and the cute teddies on the inside will whizz by. Each time your little one plays with the Ted & Tess Carousel, he/she will develop the concept of cause and effect, and aside from that, it’s just exciting to see Ted and Tess spin around endlessly!
