With the advent of the child, joy settles in the house. At this point, future parents are carefully preparing from the first days of the mother’s pregnancy, choosing for their baby only the best things, a crib, a stroller and hygiene products. Therefore, it is not surprising that by the time the baby is born, his clothes in the house are much more than the things of his mother.
In defense of parents, I want to say that a newborn really needs a lot of things: diapers, vests, diapers, bonnets, and a children's first-aid kit is often not inferior in size to an adult. Mom carefully chooses all these things for several months.
When it comes to buying towels, parents may encounter some difficulties. First of all, the question arises of how baby towels differ from adults? Yes, nothing! If we talk about materials, ordinary terry soft towels are perfect for delicate baby skin.
If you went to the store to buy baby towels, pay attention to the following points:
- A towel, like any other things for a child, should be made of natural materials. Firstly, the product, which contains a large number of synthetic fibers, absorbs water worse. And secondly, these fibers can cause an allergic reaction on the baby’s skin.
- Pay attention to the density of the product. A thicker towel will last much longer. Therefore, it is not necessary to give preference to light, weightless goods. Dense things are heavier, but much better.
- Do not choose too fluffy towel. The optimal pile length is 5 mm. A long pile does not absorb moisture well and quickly falls off, making the towel coarse. The delicate skin of the baby will certainly not be happy with such a touch.
- Today on sale you can find wonderful baby towels with a hood. This is not only a beautiful product, but also very convenient. A hood wrapped around the baby’s head gently absorbs moisture from the hair and prevents the towel from moving off the child’s shoulders. The hood can be made in the form of the head of some animals. Such things are very popular with children of all ages.
- I would also like to say about the color of the towel. Children's things should be painted only with natural dyes. Any synthetic additives can cause irritation and itching in the baby 's skin .
Caring for such products is almost no different from caring for other things baby.
Before first use, be sure to wash the towels and rinse them in water with the addition of table vinegar. This is done in order to get rid of the waterproof fabric softener, which covers all modern products.
Wash them only with baby hypoallergenic powder. Terry products are not necessary to iron, however, many mothers iron all the things of the child. If you think this is necessary, iron the baby towels in steam mode or through a damp cloth. When machine washing, do not set the temperature in excess of 60 degrees, and turn off the spin.
To restore a roughened towel to its former softness, hold it after washing in salt water. After such a procedure, you cannot iron it.
Let baby towels always remain soft and tender for the joy of your baby!
