Crib Bumpers

Babies often squirm around when they are sleeping so crib bumpers are an ideal way to provide protection for your baby against knocks and bumps and prevent legs and arms from getting caught up in the slats.

Crib bumpers come in a great range of styles, colors and patterns and can be purchased separately or in a matching crib set package.

They are often made with a cotton/polyester batting, however there are also organic batting and flannel crib bumpers available. It is generally preferable to have a crib bumper that is thin and firm rather than soft.

Be sure the crib bumper fits correctly around the entire crib and be sure to tie all the tiebacks on the crib bumper to ensure it is firmly attached to the crib. Have at least six ties, one in each corner and at the middle of the long sides of the crib. The more ties the crib bumper has the better stability. Tie off any excess length so that baby doesn’t chew on the straps or get tangled up in them.

As a rule, crib bumpers should be removed once the baby starts to stand to prevent him or her from using the bumpers to climb out of the crib.
