“And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were
accomplished that she should be delivered. And she
brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in
swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger;
because there was no room for them in the inn.”
(Luke: II: 6-7) King James Version

This Christmas remember the nativity scene and Baby Jesus sleeping soundly in the manger as the Wise Men and animals looked on. His peaceful slumber was no coincidence and now modern mothers are one again looking to Mary for inspiration.

The Biblical methods for helping baby sleep are making a comeback with the contemporary version of the swaddling blanket. At the forefront of this trend is the award-winning Cocooi Wrap by Merino Kids - a 100% natural baby-wrap, designed by a mother who understands all too well.

Born from Amie Nilsson's vision to create a baby wrap that was safe, 100% natural, functional and practical, the Merino Kids Cocooi Wrap features benefits thatonly the TLC and experience of a tired mum would consider.

Made purely from Merino Wool, this soft, natural micro-fibre baby wrap has inherent thermal properties, which means baby's temperature will remain steady, no matter how hot or cold their room becomes.

What's more, the Cocooi Wrap also eliminates the need for cot sheets and blankets and the unique design includes a two-way vent so your child can easily be transferred between car seat, stroller and bed. Great for families who want to head to out for Christmas lunch with minimum fuss!

The technique has also recently become popular with celebrities such as Heidi Klum who has swaddled her children Henry, Leni and Yohan.

Gwyneth Paltrow, actress, and Chris Martin, singer, have also been seen out with their daughter Apple swaddled in a blanket.

This Christmas keep your precious bundle of joy just that - safely bundled, precious and filled with joy during the happy season.

Why Merino Wool?
In warm temperatures, Merino Wool fibres keep moisture at bay by creating its own microclimate around baby's body, acting as a buffer against changing conditions.

During winter, the natural crimp of the fibres enables the Cocooi Wrap to trap air effectively - providing insulation in the cooler temperatures. As Merino fibres breathe, your little one will be left dry and comfortable and most importantly won't overheat - promising a good night sleep for all.

Available in a variety of colours and designs these functional, chic, Cocooi Wrap are made with 100% natural fibresandensure baby is kept snug as a bug.

So join happy mums and dads across the globe and discover the Merino Kids Cocooi Wrap, the world's best-kept secret.
