Sheepskin - Natural Ivory

The gorgeous natural Sheepskin - Natural Ivory blankets for babies are specially tanned for exceptional comfort.

The secret lies in the porous structure of wool, the elasticity of wool, the ability of wool to absorb and evaporate moisture, as well as the mesh of wool fibres that create air pockets that ensure excellent thermal isolation.

For hundreds of years mothers have wrapped their babies in lambswool to keep them warm and dry. Today using lambskin as bedding is a modern application of this age-old wisdom. The lamb after all needs a coat to keep it warm in winter and cool in summer, that will resist wet and dirt, and be thick and luxurious without being too heavy. All of these wonderful properties that protect the lamb can give the same comfort to your baby.

Tests have shown that surfaces with which a baby comes in contact are very important for their physical, functional and behavioral development. Babies easily settle into the warmth and comfort of natural lambskins and stay content. They cry less and sleep more. A study in England has proven that preterm and low birth weight babies grew faster, rested less fretfully and lost less body heat when on a lambswool rug.

NATURAL SHEEPSKINS ARE SPECIALLY TANNED:

Wool is a natural insulator keeping baby warm and cozy in cold weather
In hot weather wool absorbs moisture which is then released into the air, leaving baby drier and more comfortable

Limited pressure on baby's body
Offers less pressure on the baby's spine
Comfort in baby chairs

BENEFITS OF NATURAL SHEEPSKIN:

RECOMMENDED USER GUIDE:

When used as an item of bedding, it is recommended that children under the age of one are positioned on their backs and the lambskin is covered with a sheet
Always follow safe sleeping practices recommended by local childcare researchers
However, as wool has superb insulation features, parents can generally use less clothing, less bedding and lower room temperatures to avoid overheating baby while sleeping
A daily airing keeps the lambskin fresh for baby
Small slightly soiled areas can be sponged off
When not in use for prolonged periods store in a cool place away from direct sunlight
Avoid using plastic bags as condensation could occur, especially in warm, humid conditions

Every sheepskin is different - there is no specific size, shape or thickness.
