Baby Bedding Feature :- ( sleep associations )
One of the key factors in your baby's development is in creating associations with sleep. It is important, therefore, to instil a bedtime routine with your child that includes sleep associations he or she can replicate for him or herself. The idea is to get your child to a point where if he wakes in the middle of the night, he can go back to sleep on his own. One key element of association is the choice of baby bedding such as a blanket

Try getting your child to associate with things like a stuffed toy or an item of baby bedding such as a blanket. The idea is that if your child makes sleep associations with these items, he or she can recreate the sleep situation on their own when they wake up in the middle of the night. Instead of waking up and crying for a feeding or to be rocked, the child will be able to grab his or her stuffed animal or choice of baby bedding such as a blanket and re-create on their own a situation conducive to sleep.

In this same vein, parents should consider the use of what is called a "transitional object." This is something you allow your child access to only before bedtime, and which he can bring to bed. So as your child gets his final bedtime story, allow him to have his special item of baby bedding such as a blanket or stuffed animal, and allow them to keep the object with him as they are put to bed.

Although it seems somewhat counter-intuitive, ensure that when your baby naps, he or she does so in a well lit area. This will likely ensure that your baby naps for shorter periods of time, which will make him or her more tired in the evening hours, and help them sleep better at night. Consideration should therefore be made for “day time” baby bedding to ensure that the correct associations between day time napping and night time sleeping are built up early
