A blankie and so much more

I used to think baby blankets simply needed to be cute, soft and warm. But that cute blanket loses its charm after it falls on the ground for the millionth time. That warm blanket doesn't help when it slides down the stroller and gets caught in the mucky wheel. And that soft blanket becomes a giant sponge when you spread it out on the damp grass for tummy time. Needless to say, I quickly learned that not all cute, soft and warm baby blankets are created equal.

The Go Blankie from Portland's own Plum Tot has a few simple features that amp up the functionality of the traditional baby blanket. Of course the padded cotton or soft minky fabric makes the Go Blankie cute, soft and warm. But the other side is made of water and wind resistant nylon making it the ideal playmat on dewy grass. Side ties let you attach the Go Blankie to your baby carrier or stroller so it stays in place. A drawstring lets you pull it tight around baby or adapt it as a nursing cover. It's truly the only baby blanket you'll need!
