So, what are bamboo baby muslins?

Muslins are squares of durable fabric that can be used by new parents for nearly everything! We will get onto the finer details next. They come in a variety of materials from breathable, bamboo too cotton. Here at Panda we believe  the more natural, the better. They are super easy to keep clean (ours even get softer with every wash) You will notice they come in different sizes.  The larger muslin’s are perfect for swaddling your baby to sleep, as young Mum Jelena discovered:

“My baby moved his arms and legs way too much which prevented him from falling asleep. But when I wrapped him like a burrito in a Bamboo Muslin he calmed down and drifted off every time.”

What are baby muslins used for?

Now for those details! What exactly can baby muslins be used for? You will be pleased to know- quite a lot. Let’s dive in.

Spillages – First up lets talk about mess. As one thing’s for sure babies sure make a lot of that (though they are so cute, who cares?)

Peek-a-bamboo is a firm favourite! As Tommy says:

“my little one loved exploring and baby muslins kept mummy’s tummy time clean while she had lots of fun”

Comforter – Soft, gentle baby muslins are ideal for soothing your little one when they get distressed, from stroking them at story time or easing them into a nap bamboo baby muslin’s are the ultimate gentle comforter. 

Make – shift – bib –  Keep tea time tidy!  Baby Muslins make great bibs whether you are on the go or at home. The super absorbent, durable fabric will catch anything they miss and make feeding time heaps more fun. As Jackie whose Pandas are now all grown up says:

“baby muslins were my go-to item.  I used them for the burping, cleaning up, as a bib, and even keeping the sun off their little faces in the pram”
