A Blanket Works Best When It Stays On The Baby

blanket clipzLiving in one of the windier regions of Canada, I find I need to have several blankets on hand because they’re always blowing off and landing in the dirt.

For that reason and many more, I am loving my new Blanket Clipz from 3 Kids Designs. A simple but sturdy ribbon with clips at each end, Blanket Clipz keep my baby’s blanket on the stroller, car seat, swing, bouncy chair and shopping cart.

We’re all about multi-functional around here, and Blanket Clipz don’t disappoint. In addition to keeping blankets in place, they’re also great for clipping keys to my diaper bag so they won’t fall to the black hole, making a bib from any napkin or cloth and clipping a blanket to my shoulder for nursing privacy.

I’m sure there are more uses - I just haven’t discovered them yet!

Win it! We’ve got a pink camo set of Blanket Clips with your name on it. Well, maybe. If you win. To enter, simply leave a comment on this post by noon MST on July 24/08.

Additional entries available - up to four per person. See contest entry information and rules.

  17. # 17 Heather T. Says:
    July 19th, 2008 at 5:20 am

    This is a really good idea. I can think of times when I had a blanket on my son while in the stroller and he would keep dropping it. It was such a pain to walk around and keep picking it up all the time. Let alone, all the germs it was accumulating while falling to the ground constantly. These would be great to have for my daughter who is due on August 4th!

  18. # 18 Beth G. Says:

    These are a great idea! I live near the ocean and we get some awesome windstorms!

    These clips would work for mittens, or hats or even socks, I’ve known a lot of wee ones to lose their socks as its “so” much fun for them to pull them off!

    Great giveaway!

    I thought I’d entered this giveaway. I love these, and they would serve a dual purpose both for my baby and for me. I’ve been looking for this fr awhile but didn’t know I was looking for this particular item.

    Its perfect for my baby - and me. When I was a teen, there was an item exactly like this, but to clip on dresses in the back - to take in the waist but leave hips free.

    Thanks for the chance to win.
