Elli & Nooli blanket - review and giveaway (US only)

When my boys were babies, I wished for a great blanket that I could use in the stroller. I tried many, even made one or 2 but they always managed to kick them off. I was constantly worrying that they were going to get cold.

I was recently contacted by Elli & Nooli and given two blankets to review - the Padi blanket and the Loopi blanket.

Padi Blanket
The Padi blanket is different than any of the blankets I have come across. You place the blanket in the stroller, thread the safety straps through the slits that are in the blanket and then place the baby in the stroller and connect the harness. Once baby is secured in the buggy, you can "wrap" the blanket over top of them.











I wanted to see how easy it was to use, so when it arrived I attached it to our stroller. It was super simple to place in the buggy - my 2 yr old is too big for it, so I don't have a picture with him in it - but this is what it looked like in my own stroller.







The Loopi Blanket is a large receiving blanket that has a velcro "loop" on one of the corners. You can then attach a soother or a lovey for your child to the blanket, making it easy for them to find.













Here are some pictures to show you the sizing of the Loopi Blanket

    The Padi blanket looks awesome. Do they make them big enough for a toddler? Do you have to disconnect the stroller straps to get them through the blanket?

      They aren't big enough for toddlers unfortunately; and no, the straps do not have to come off the stroller to go through the blanket. It really is as simple as placing it on the stroller, then threading them through the slits.
