Sleep sack
A sleep sack is worn over pajamas or a 'onesie' and takes the place of top sheets, blankets and comforters. It ensures your baby is always sufficiently covered and removes the risk of bedding covering their face. In other words, it's a wearable blanket that replaces loose blankets in the crib that can cover a baby's face and interfere with breathing.
