Touch of Love
Urban Baby Snuggie
What did Sarah Jessica Parker, Kelly Ripa, Lauren Holly and Cynthia Nixon all consider their favorite nursery item? The Touch of Love Snuggie from Urban Baby. The outfit and included instruction manual give parents a detailed map to easily navigate the different massage points on a baby’s body. Both baby and parent will enjoy the benefits of bonding and the gentle rubbing on pressure points (denoted on the snuggie through color symbols) provide relief to typical infant discomforts like gas. The snuggie comes beautifully wrapped and ready to give. Available in newborn and 3-6 month size.
