Crib Bumpers

OK, say it fast with me ten times: Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers!

That was fun, wasn’t it? Even though that venerable tongue twister talks of an obsolete product, it does bring us to the subject at hand; baby crib bumper pads. These are features that not only add to the good looks of any crib, they are also an important safety feature for your baby.

Your baby, as a newborn, will generally stay in the position in which they are laid down. Crib bumpers add another measure of protection in keeping what is out, out. A toddler sibling may decide that what baby needs is a toy small enough to put through the crib bars, or a crumbly cookie, or, God forbid, something with sharp corners that was picked up in that second that he wasn’t in parental eye range. Of course, big brother or sister is, in their mind, doing something nice for Baby, who must get awfully bored just lying there all day. They have no idea that what they are doing could result in injury. Crib bumper pads eliminate this hazard. Crib bumpers also discourage kitty from jumping in to investigate, or Bowzer’s big snuffly muzzle giving the baby a nice sloppy kiss.

When baby comes to the stage where they can roll over, crib bumper pads protect the little head from bumping the hardness of the crib. As baby begins to creep, there is the danger of the head and face becoming wedged into the corner of the crib, endangering breathing. The baby is surrounded, by bright yellow crib bumpers that may look cheerful but are also a powerful tool of protection. Crib bumper safety takes one worry off a parent’s mind.

Crib bumpers are also an attractive addition to the nursery décor. White crib skirts combined with white bumpers give an elegant, timeless look. Butterfly crib bumpers are cheerful and appropriate for both boys and girls. A crib bumper + lady bug equals a pop of bright red into any décor that could use lightening up. Raggedy Ann + crib bumpers equal an adorable touch for a little girl. Add a stuffed Raggedy Ann doll or two into the room for an absolutely cute and homey look. Chenille crib bumpers are classic and extra soft.

Baby crib bumpers give comfort, safety and a finishing touch to baby’s crib and the room. That’s a lot of bang for your buck. How many other baby accessories can do the same?
