Giveaway: Stowers Swaddlers & Stationery

May 3, 2008

This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your participation.
The winner is Jinxy of Thrifty Jinxy. Congratulations!

 

Hey, remember Stowers Swaddlers & Stationery? You know, that cool button hanging out in my sidebar? Well, they have generously donated a Swaddler in your choice of color - pink, blue, or yellow. How cool is that?

As parents, we know how important correct swaddling techniques are especially in the early part of a baby’s life. Benefits includes helping your baby sleep longer and safer, assists them in self-soothing bouts of fussiness, and prevents triggering the “starting” effect. However, a recent survey shows that a majority of new parents do not know how to properly swaddle a baby in a regular blanket.

Why make life more difficult when there are products available to help? The Stowers Swaddler is simple to use with just 3 easy step.

If you’d like to win one, just stop by Stowers Swaddlers & Stationery before May 9th and check out their products. Then come back and mention something you found interesting. That’s it! A random winner will be selected and notified on May 10th. The winner will then have 3 days to claim their prize.

To earn extra entries, just subscribe to my feed and/or mention this giveaway on your blog with a link back here and to Stowers Swaddlers & Stationery. Don’t forget to let me know if you’re doing the extra credit so I can make sure you’re entered properly.

This giveaway is open to US addresses only. Good luck!

I really enjoyed looking at this site. I am looking for several baby presents at the moment, and think that this site might have the right gifts! I especially liked the Baby buddy burp cloths- I think it sounds good that there is a cut out for the neck- should make it more comfortable for the baby! Thanks for this giveaway

I love the swaddler blankets though I’ve never used one myself. I’ve always self-swaddled. However, my best friend is due in July with her first baby, a little boy, and I know this would be a huge blessing for her!

I’d been to the site many time though I’d never looked at the blankets. I never thought about how it helps the little ones from rolling over, it’s a good idea for those who’s baby’s are in the 6 month range, and would like to keep them safe.

Why Swaddle?

Reduce SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome).

Calm your baby’s natural startle reflex for a more relaxed baby

Allows your baby sleep better and longer

Helps calm fussy or colicky babies
The Stowers Swaddler blanket offers a ready made pocket with pre-folded ends so you simply slip your child’s feet inside, wrap the blanket around the baby and secure!
