Talk to me about aden + anais dream blankets

shootingstars00 · August 2012

I am thinking about buying one of these dream blankets by aden + anais but I wanted to ask the board about it first since they are not cheap. Are they WARM? It is starting to cool down at night and her current baby blanket is pretty thin. Also is it big enough that if she moves around she will stay under it? Thanks!

I don't have a dream blanket, but I do have some of their swaddlers. They are pretty thin (which is why I like them, b/c they're breathable). I think it might be the muslin material that makes them thin/breathable in which case the dream blankets might not be as warm as you want.

We have the one with the blue dots. It's a really great blanket-very soft and pretty big. My LO doesn't use it in his crib yet, but I think it would definitely cover him. I plan to use it when the weather gets cooler here. It's warm but without being too hot. It is pricey, but it's something he'll have for a long time.

I have one with cars on it. It is a great blanket. Big enough to use in the crib and heavy enough, but not too heavy. It is like sewing together 6 or so aden and anais blankets. Love it!

DD has the babycakes one, and she LOVES it- and this kid kicks off every other blanket. It's super soft and breathable, but has a nice weight to it. It gets pretty cold in her room with the AC, and we dress her in footie pajamas and use this blanket. It takes up about 2/3 of the crib, so it's a nice size.

I just wish they made one big enough for our king size bed!
