When I first heard about Happy Blankie, the thing that stuck out to me is that they are designed by a child. What mom doesn’t want to support a child-preneur! (yes I made that word up.)
Happy Blankies were dreamed up by 10-year-old David Holdridge, who wanted to combine his little sister’s two favorite things (stuffed animals and blankets) into one. With a little help from his mom, Happy Blankies were launched!
In addition to being adorable, Happy Blankies are incredibly soft. They’re well-made and are something I’d feel good about wrapping around my little one! The backs are satin-y, which is a texture that most kids seem to love. They’d make great baby shower gifts!
Better yet, you’re doing good by purchasing from Happy Blankie. From the company:
Happy Blankie’s mission is “one to love, one to give” and for every blanket purchased, a second blanket is donated to a child in a hospital or orphanage. Happy Blankie works with organizations around the world and will be doing Blankie Drops every few months to children in need of comfort.
Comforting children in hospitals and orphanages? I can’t think of a more important mission.
Love these! How wonderful of them to donate one, too. That makes me want to bust my Christmas budget.
These are wayyyyyy toooooo cute! Wish I knew about them when Carter was an infant. And the donation is just icing on the cake! What a great idea!
Incredibly cute – and the silky side is definitely a good idea – hmmm, maybe a gift for my new little niece/nephew 🙂
CUTE CUTE CUTE, I’m in love!!!
