Two Baby Bears and Co.’s Swaddle Sleeves™

Meet Swaddle Sleeves: the gently weighted, arms-only swaddle transition solution that is designed to soothe baby’s startles and reduce the risk of overheating since it can be worn with only a onesie, or an (arms-out) swaddle, sleep sack, or PJs that baby will graduate to for a seamless transition. It is also perfect as a swaddle alternative for babies who don’t like being traditionally swaddled but still have a strong Moro reflex. Swaddle Sleeves meet CPSIA safety standards and current market appeal, and are designed with a non-slip, chevron-patterned, nontoxic silicone backing to keep the product securely placed on your little one’s arms all night long for safe and comfortable sleep.

Once your baby is rolling over or you feel that he is ready to leave the comfort of the swaddle, use the Swaddle Sleeves to dampen the startle reflex to help baby get used to a less contained environment. The light weight will act as a buffer against what remains of the startle reflex and will help your baby smoothly transition out of the swaddle and into the crib. This way, there’s no dramatic adjustment for your little one as their arms adapt to being completely free after being snuggled inside the swaddle for so long.

Our patent-pending swaddle transition product gives baby the feeling of being cuddled and a sense of warmth and safety, only second best to being snuggled up in their parents’ arms. Swaddle Sleeves are designed to reduce constant wake-ups and help babies transition safely to arms-out sleep with minimal sleep disturbances to ensure maximum sleep comfort.

GLO PALS LIGHT-UP CUBES – BLAIR

What makes the Glo Pals so unique is that they engage a child with technology while still encouraging imaginative play and aiding in the development of fine motor skills. The inspiration behind the Glo Pals came from an autistic child who was terrified of the bath. His mother used the technology behind the Glo Pals to encourage him to overcome his fear of the water and learn to love bath time. His story influenced the development of the Glo Pal characters and our mission to create a product that would engage children and brighten bath time. Because they are liquid-activated, the Glo Pals a great tool for persuading a reluctant child to get in the bath tub. When bath time is over, just take them out and they turn off. They are also great for engaging in sensory play.
