2 Virtues Introduces the Innovative Blankeaze, the First Wearable Baby Blanket Specially Designed for Active Sleepers

A safe and affordable alterative to loose blankets, Blankeaze by 2 Virtues helps infants and toddlers enjoy a calm and restful sleep.

Pawtucket, RI (PRWEB) September 25, 2006 -- Just in time for cold winter nights, 2 Virtues is pleased to announce the debut of "Blankeaze The Kick-Proof, Twist-Proof Wearable Blanket For Infants & Toddlers," the latest “must have” baby gear in their unique brand of sleep care products. The first wearable blanket of its kind for infants and toddlers, Blankeaze is designed for “active” sleepers who kick off loose blankets or get uncomfortably twisted in their sleep sacks.

Available in sizes from 6 months to 3T, Blankeaze is worn over pajamas and zips up the back to prevent fidgety babies and toddlers from unzipping and removing the blanket and their pjs. Even better, it sells for the low price of $18 and is designed for year round use. According to the SIDS Alliance, wearable blankets are a safer alternative to loose blankets.

After a few nights of shuteye, I knew I had to bring this remarkable product to market to help other parents and caretakers.

2 Virtues has already revolutionized the industry with Swaddleaze, the original two-in-one wearable baby swaddler and sleep sack that safely swaddles a baby for a good night’s sleep. The introduction of Blankeaze now makes a baby’s nursery complete. Designed by President Heather Allard to help both her and her daughter Grace sleep peacefully through the night, Blankeaze provides warmth without worry. “My daughter Grace was an active sleeper from birth. She would roll around in her crib from end to end, kicking off her blanket or twisting her sleep sack into a fabric tornado! She also had the frustrating habit of removing her sleep sack, pajamas and diaper. I’d find her wet and shivering in the corner of her crib nearly every night! All that changed when she started wearing my Blankeaze prototype,” says Heather Allard. “After a few nights of shuteye, I knew I had to bring this remarkable product to market to help other parents and caretakers.”

Meanwhile, Heather Allard’s ability to spot a baby care need and fill it is being celebrated by parents, experts and industry professionals. “Savvy Mommy” editor and author Victoria Pericon (www.savvymommy.com) features Heather in her latest book “Cool Mom Inventions: Secrets of 76 Successful Mommy Inventors.”

Blankeaze adheres to CPSC standards for infant sleepwear and is made of flame resistant, breathable microfleece. It is a sleeveless romper-style wearable blanket designed with a long zipper in the back which makes for easy diaper changes and prevents budding “Houdinis” from escaping. Five sizes and a number of cheerful colors are offered. Blankeaze will be on store shelves in November 2006. For more information, visit the web site at http://www.2virtues.com.
