Sheepskin Baby Rugs Guidelines for use.
 

Sheepskin baby rugs have been enjoyed by babies from around the world, the warmth and comfort of the fleece feels wonderful against the skin. The versatility and special properties of Sheepskin were revealed by a woman in New Zealand, when her child was recovering from illness.

Mothers have wrapped their babies in wool to keep them warm and dry, for centuries. The  use of  lambskin as bedding, pram or floor mat is the modern equivalent.

Sleeping Position
Health care professionals advise that young babies under one year of age should be placed to sleep on their backs. This is a safety measure for use with all bedding, including sheepskin baby rugs.
Babies need tactile experiences in order to make sense of their world. Natural Sheepskin helps the baby to feel a different texture, and offers security and warmth. Some Mothers prefer to place a soft muslin directly under babies head, this can be changed regularly, and protects baby in case of  rolling over during sleep.

Thermal Control
Sheepskin Baby rugs are used throughout the year.  Wool is a natural insulator and will trap warm air keeping temperatures stable and baby warm. The natural properties of wool have been recognised for centuries. As a natural fibre it absorbs moisture, which, when released, keeps baby cooler and more comfortable. Using sheepskin can avoid unnecessary clothing, frequently a contributing cause to irritability and discomfort.

Lambs, need a coat that will keep warm in winter and cool in the summer, that will resist rain and dirt, and that will be thick and luxurious without being too heavy. These same  properties that protect the lamb can give the same comfort to your baby.

Tests have proven that surfaces with which a baby comes in contact with are very important for their physical, sensory and behavioural development. Babies need a variety of sensory experience in order to make sense of their world. Sheepskin Baby Rugs, cover this criteria. Babies easily settle more easily and remain content, cosy and warm. They cry less and sleep more. A study in England has proven that pre-term and low birth weight babies grew faster, rested more easily and lost less body heat when the rugs were used.

 The rugs are fully washable, on low temperature with non biological, gentle, washing powders, designed for wool. 

Spot soiling can be sponged and dried with a hairdryer on low heat.

Dry away from direct heat, over a rack or outside on fine day. A teaspoon of glycerine can be added to the final rinsing water to help keep the leather supple.
