Goodbye Winter Snuggles, Hello Sunshine
As August comes to a close and the chill of winter begins to melt away, many parents are starting to feel that first glimmer of spring sunshine. It's a magical time of year bringing about warmer afternoons, more time outdoors, and a little less layering (finally!). We know how special these moments are with your baby and we’re here to help make the transition as smooth (and snuggly) as possible.
Whether you’re packing away those cosy winter blankets or switching to lighter baby bedding, we’ve got some helpful tips to help you prepare for the warmer months ahead.
Lighten Up: Bedding Tips for Warmer Weather
Your baby’s comfort is always top of mind and with temperatures on the rise, it’s a great time to make a few gentle adjustments to their sleep setup.
Here’s what to consider as you head into spring:
- Switch to lighter layers: Trade heavy quilts and thicker sleeping bags for breathable organic cotton. Our Bundl wool wraps, organic cotton blankets, sleeping bags and organic bedding options are perfect for in-between weather being soft, lightweight and washable!
- Temperature check: Babies can’t regulate their body temperature as well as adults, so aim for a room temp of around 20–22°C.
- Dress for the season: Think soft singlets, short sleeve bodysuits or footless onesies. Layer if needed but always opt for breathable fabrics where possible.
Winter Wrap-Up: Storing Cold Weather Essentials
As much as we love the cosy layers of winter, now’s the time to tuck them away until next year. Here are a few quick tips for storing your Bundl winter faves (and keeping them in top condition):
- Wash and dry thoroughly: Before storing, make sure all blankets, sleeping bags and bedding are clean and completely dry. This helps prevent any mould and musty smells down the track.
- Use breathable storage: Store your items in cotton storage bags or fabric boxes rather than airtight plastic containers. This allows airflow and helps maintain the natural fibres in your products.
- Label and organise: Keep things sorted by size or season so you can easily find what you need when next winter rolls around. Trust us, it makes future you very happy!
- Keep out of direct sunlight: To preserve the colour and softness of your products, store them somewhere cool, dry, and out of harsh light.
As you pack away the winter woollies and embrace lighter layers, know that every Bundl product is thoughtfully curated to make these transitions easier and more beautiful, for you and your baby.
Until next time, stay cosy!
With love,
The Bundl Team
