Burp cloths are the perfect way to guard against a potential mess made by your little toddler. Long gone are the days when people used cotton diapers for a burp cloth. Of course cotton diapers will work, but there are far more cute and elegant solutions out there - and all are very affordable. Make your cloth extra adorable with a matching bib.
Burp cloths now come in all sorts of colors and fabrics, and many can be downright fashionable. You can even color coordinate with your favorite outfit! Personalized burp cloths are always a hit, being as unique as the baby using them. Make sure your burp cloth is thick emough to be absorbent, yet thin enough to fit neatly in your baby bag. They should also wash and dry easily. But most importantly, burp cloths should be soft enough to easily wipe your baby´s face. Burp cloths make useful and pretty gifts for a baby shower.
So what does YeahBaby.com suggest for a burp cloth? We find an absorbent terry trimmed burp cloth in gingham colors to be an adorable choice for a girl. Exceptionally nice would be one with satin borders. For boys, we like a flannel burp cloth in bold colors. We always have a couple burp cloths tucked away in the top drawer of a baby nursery.
Crafty people may want to make their own burp cloths. Simply take 2 pieces of flannel, terry cloth, or any 100% cotton fabric. Sew them together with the right side turned out. Dads may love a burp cloth embroidered with a favorite sports team logo, or in a sport´s teams colors. Place a coordinating strip on the opposite end of the burp cloth with a sports phrase like "Go Huskies", "Pittsburgh Steelers fan", or "How about them Dawgs?"
