We bought the Grobag Chick A Dee since the northeastern winter months is drawing near and I wanted our 10 month old to get use to it. The blanket is fairly long for our 10 month old but we bought it with the thought of her using the Grobag again next year. It definitely keeps her warm and I don’t have to keep getting up in the middle of the night to put a blanket on her. For the fall evening with the temperatures as low as the 40s, we layer on a short sleeve shirt underneath a long sleeve onesy and her Grobag. By wintertime, we will probably layer a long sleeve shirt under a thicker onesy and her Grobag.

Grobag Chick a Dee Crib

The only downside is that the baby is unable to crawl or cruise in the crib because her legs are in the blanket. The great thing about this particular one–as opposed to the other Grobag that snaps on at the shoulder– is that I leave her bag zipped only halfway, leaving her feet exposed to move about as she pleases. She has been less fussy since we started only zipping halfway down (note: the zipper on this Grobag zips from top to bottom). The blanket is a super soft cotton (not the synthetic fiber from Halo) and thickness is just enough to keep her warm without overheating. Also, the blanket washes and dries well. Would highly recommend Grobag Chick a dee.
