4. How do I wash a Minky baby blanket?
We recommend machine washing Minky blankets in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble drying on low.
Avoid high heat, bleach, and harsh chemicals to help preserve the soft texture of the fabric.
5. Can I use fabric softener on a Minky blanket?
We recommend avoiding fabric softeners and harsh cleaning products. They can affect the soft texture and performance of plush fabrics over time.
A mild detergent and gentle wash cycle are generally the best choice.
6. Are Minky blankets suitable for newborns?
Minky blankets can be used for supervised cuddling, stroller outings, playtime, photographs, nursery décor, and gifting.
For infant sleep, follow current safe-sleep guidance. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping loose blankets and other soft items out of an infant's crib or bassinet and using only a fitted sheet on the sleep surface. Click HERE for more details.
Swaddles & Baby Blankets
7. What is the difference between a swaddle blanket and a Minky blanket?
A swaddle blanket is typically lightweight and designed for wrapping or everyday multipurpose use, while a Minky blanket is thicker and plush, making it better suited for cuddling, stroller use, playtime, travel, and comfort.
Choose based on the intended use, fabric feel, and age of your child.

8. When should I stop swaddling my baby?
Parents should stop swaddling when a baby begins showing signs of attempting to roll over.
For questions about your baby's sleep or swaddling needs, consult your pediatrician and follow current safe-sleep recommendations.
9. What baby blanket size should I choose?
The best size depends on how you plan to use the blanket.
A smaller blanket may be convenient for travel, stroller use, or carrying around, while a larger baby or toddler blanket offers more coverage for cuddling, playtime, and everyday use.
Check the dimensions listed on each Honey Lemonade product page before ordering.
Crib Sheets & Nursery Bedding
10. How do I choose the right crib sheet?
Choose a fitted crib sheet designed for the size and shape of your crib mattress.
The sheet should fit snugly around the mattress without loose fabric. Always check the dimensions on the product page and compare them with your mattress measurements before ordering.
For infant sleep, the AAP recommends a firm sleep surface with a tight-fitting fitted sheet and no loose bedding. HealthyChildren.org
