Let's Face It - There Is Love In That Blanket!

So you've had your baby shower. You've gathered all the gifts, brought them home, and admired each one. Now you just have to wait for that special someone to come into the world.



You don't know it now, but one of these very gifts could be a tremendous help in your child's development. It may just be the one item that can give almost as much comfort and security as you can. When your child becomes attached to a security item, be it a blanket or a stuffed animal, it becomes very beneficial to his well-being.



It has been known that children who had security blankets as a child become much more independent adults. They are generally not anxious, or high strung. They have been able to release anxiety as a child, so that ability has been carried forward into their adulthood.
