Bibs – something every mum knows a thing or two or twenty about.
Before becoming a Mum I knew bibs were important, they were on my must have list after all. However, what I didn’t know or what I failed to underestimate is just how important they would become. How much easier they could / would make my life and likewise how much harder. We used bibs pretty much right from the get go with Sebastian, he was quite a spilly baby and then a very dribbly one as he moved on to teething, so bibs were essential. Initially, I went for bibs that were cute and fun. I can hear you all thinking what’s wrong with that..? The thing is they weren’t very functional. They were either too big on my tiny bubba, didn’t absorb as well as I would have liked and as he got bigger well it become a fun game of who could get the bib on or off fastest (read: velcro).
So you can imagine my enthusiasm when asked to try out the bibs by Funky Giraffe.
These bibs are designed with Mums in mind by (yip, you guessed it) a Mum. Funky Giraffe believes in good quality, funky designs and great value. They are bibs for ‘babies with style’ and who doesn’t want that for their little one!?
Their bandana bibs are 100% cotton on the front so wonderfully soft to touch and the fleece backing keeps dribble from soaking through, keeping littlies dry (which is the whole point, isn’t it?); plus they have double snaps making it adjustable / one size fits all and brilliant for both babies and toddlers. Another feature which I love about them is the size, they aren’t too big. Big enough to cover and catch all that dribble and drool but not so big that you loose seeing your little ones cute outfit.
There are 100’s of gorgeous designs to choose from – plain colours, patterned, ones for the holidays, seasons, cute pictures and themed. Plus, because they are so affordable you could have one for every occasion and every outfit. They even have a cute little giraffe label on them and are machine washable (which is a double win in my books).
As well as bandana bibs, Funky Giraffe offers satin, cotton, bamboo, cutie collars, large and square bibs (you can even personalise, if you like); scratch mittens; burp cloths and scarves. I am in love with them already, they are soft and gorgeous. Although, Sebastian at two is past using bibs, I can’t wait to use them in a couple of months with Lil Gooseberry (baby # 2) and add to my his / her collection.
My bibs were received from their Australian site and were in my hot little hands in just on a week (pretty speedy, if you ask me!). You can also get them from the UK, USA & FRANCE.
