SLEEPY WRAP

Sleepy Wrap was born out of the dream of the ideal baby carrier void of buckles, rings, hard parts, pinching straps or stretched out fabric. Simplicity and comfort were key. An active mom in love with her newborn was our model. Keeping her child close and secure while shopping, hiking, cooking, dancing, navigating airports or libraries were activity minimums. The end result is a durable non-sagging wrap baby carrier with great quality fabric, made especially for newborns but that would comfortably accommodate newborns to toddlers. www.sleepywrap.com

BABY BLANKET MUSIC

 New Line of Baby Music Features Top Tunes from Top Artists Set to Soothing Lullaby Arrangements

Baby Blanket Music makes its debut with a collection of albums featuring unique, soothing lullaby arrangements of favorite songs from an array of well-known stars.  Billy Joel, Elton John, John Mayer and Simon & Garfunkel are among the artists whose hit songs and familiar melodies are featured in the collection.

Created by New York-based teacher, composer and performer, Josh Rutt, Baby Blanket Music was developed under the guidance of a wide range of doctors, teachers and child development specialists.  As his closest friends began having children, Rutt carefully observed and participated in their babies’ development.  He soon discovered that there was room for improvement in the quality of baby music that was currently available on the market.  As a result, Rutt set out to create a distinctive line of music designed to appeal to babies, parents and grandparents alike.  A student of music his whole life with a dynamic career focused on working with children, the development of Baby Blanket Music came naturally to Rutt.

I saw that there was a need and an opportunity for new ideas as well as new sounds,” said Josh Rutt, founder & CEO of Baby Blanket Music.  “Much of the baby music I was finding was very stripped down, difficult for adults to enjoy, and did not seem particularly enriching for young ones.  Since then, my goal has been to create music that is soothing and enhancing for babies while remaining enjoyable for adults.”

Designed to soothe baby while enhancing the enjoyment and cognition of music, Baby Blanket Music features familiar baby sounds like vibraphones and music boxes paired with a full medley of richer, more classical instruments including strings, woodwinds, pianos, harps and soft percussion.  Together, these instrumental arrangements create gentle textures that are calming and enjoyable to ears of any age.

Among the smash hits found on the albums are Billy Joel’s Piano Man and Uptown Girl; Elton John’s Tiny Dancer and Your Song; John Mayer’s Daughters and Why Georgia and Simon & Garfunkel’s Bridge Over Troubled Water and Mrs. Robinson.

Baby Blanket Music is available at retailers in the U.S.,  iTunes, and at www.BabyBlanketMusic.com.

Recommended retail for each of the four CD’s in the collection (Baby Billy Joel, Baby Elton John, Baby John Mayer and Baby Simon & Garfunkel) is $14.99.  More albums from additional artists will follow with two new releases slated for Summer 2010.
