Adults often vow to “learn something new each day” in an effort to enrich their lives through education. For babies, it’s not unusual to learn dozens or even hundreds of new things in a single day, which can be an exhausting enterprise. The world is full of unfamiliar sights, sounds, smells and textures, all of which vie for a child’s undivided attention. Stimulus overload is not uncommon, and a baby’s natural way of coping with it is to focus on the aspects of daily life that remain predictable.
A baby blanket acts as the child’s link to the comfort and stability of his bed. At the end of the day, when all of the external stimulus has vanished for a few hours, the blanket is still there to provide reassurance. Most kids grow out of their habit of walking around with a security blanket in a matter of months. But for one incredibly important stretch early in development, baby and blanket remain inseparable.
