The HALO SleepSack wearable blanket replaces loose blankets
in the crib that can cover your baby's face and interfere with breathing. In
addition to sleeping more safely, HALO SleepSack products help babies sleep
better, too. It's a warm, cuddly blanket they can't kick off, ensuring your
little one sleeps soundly throughout the night.

Here are their safe Sleep Tips.
ALWAYS
- Place baby to sleep on his or her back at naptime and at night time.
- Use a crib that meets current safety standards with a firm mattress that fits snugly and is covered with only a tight-fitting crib sheet.
- Remove all blankets, comforters and toys from your baby’s sleep area (this includes loose blankets, bumpers, pillows and positioners). The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests using a wearable blanket instead of loose blankets to keep your baby warm.
- Offer a pacifier when putting baby to sleep. If breastfeeding, introduce pacifier after one month or after breastfeeding has been established.
- Breastfeed, if possible, but when finished, put your baby back to sleep in his or her separate safe sleep area alongside your bed.
- Room share, but don’t bed share. Bed sharing can put a child at risk of suffocation.
NEVER
- Never put your baby to sleep on any soft surface (adult beds, sofas, chairs, water beds, quilts, sheep skins etc.)
- Never dress your baby too warmly for sleep; keep room temperature 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Never allow anyone to smoke around your baby or take your baby into a room or car where someone has recently smoked.

I love that they keep kidlets warm all night long!
ReplyDeleteWould like to win one of the sleep sacs. My soon to be born grandkids would give them a good try out. Lol yup two of them. Blankets are great but they kick them off during the night. The sleep sacs would keep them covered
ReplyDeleteA sleep sack is more than a cute addition to a baby’s layette. It’s a wearable blanket that serves as an alternative to bulky blankets that can suffocate a newborn baby.
ReplyDeleteI love that no matter how much the baby squirms, they will stay covered!
ReplyDeleteI would love a chance to win this awesome gift. I have heard great reviews and would love to try it out on my son :)

ReplyDeleteEver since my daughter was a newborn she has been a mover. Her blankets & sheets (even now at almost 20 years old) never stay on her bed. After 1 night it looks like a tornado went through & ripped up her bedding. I have tried everything including the elastics that go corner to corner to keep her sheets in place. I wish I had Halo Sleep Sacks when she was a baby because I wouldn't have been as worried about her getting cold.
ReplyDeleteI love that they won't be uncovered and get chilly.
ReplyDeleteSafety is the best feature!
ReplyDeleteI like that they stay on, no uncovering in the night.
ReplyDeleteI like that it's safe for my baby while keeping him warm.
ReplyDeleteI love that the Halo Sleep Sack keeps baby warm but not too warm and keeps them covered all night!
