Comment bien choisir sa cape de bain bébé ?

How to choose the right baby bath cape?

Bath time is a special moment for both parents and baby, which always arouses a lot of emotions.

It is a moment of tenderness and complicity that reminds baby of an environment he knows well . Indeed, we must not forget that he is coming out of a warm and cozy liquid environment and therefore he loves water and being warm.

After the bath, you must quickly wrap your baby so that he does not have the unpleasant sensation of being cold and can quickly be dry and warm. In fact , the baby bath cape has become an essential accessory to prolong the cocooning moment when baby gets out of the bath, and their design has greatly evolved over the years.

It is important to choose the right bath cape so that your baby feels comfortable inside, and several criteria must be taken into account for this, such as the material of the bath cape, its size or even its design.

What material should you choose for a baby bath cape?

When it comes to the materials used for, baby bath capes are often made from cotton. Cotton is a soft and breathable fiber that is perfect for babies' delicate skin.

The majority of baby bath capes found on the market are made of terry towelling. However, we recommend that you choose baby bath capes made of 100% cotton honeycomb.

Indeed, honeycomb cotton is an ultra-absorbent fabric that allows for ultra-fast drying. But above all, honeycomb is a healthy and hygienic fabric. Its specific weave in large cells makes it an airy fabric that dries quickly after use, and which does not retain bacteria unlike classic terry cloth, a material in which bacteria love to nest! Terry cloth bath capes can therefore become real nests for bacteria...

Honeycomb is also a very robust and durable fabric, which allows honeycomb products to last for years. Lumä 100% honeycomb baby bath capes will be your ideal ally for drying baby efficiently and hygienically.

How to choose the right size for your baby bath cape?

There are several sizes of baby bath capes and choosing the right size is an important step. The cape must be large enough to wrap baby properly, but not too big so that baby gets lost in it!

The size must be adapted to the weight and morphology of the baby so that it is well protected. Lumä baby bath capes come in two sizes: 75x75 cm for babies from 0 to 12 months generally, and 95x95cm which is suitable for babies from 12 months and up.

It is also important that the bath cape is thick enough to absorb water and keep baby warm. Lumä bath capes are lined and therefore keep baby dry and warm without being too heavy!

No more worries for mom and dad who fear that baby will be cold after bath time, especially if they have to carry them to their room to get dressed ;)
