Bumpers:
Using bumpers is a personal choice.
If you decide to use them, read up on safety procedures and use with care.
When tying the bumper ribbon, either tie it snuggly in a knot or double knot the
bow so Baby doesn’t undo the bow. Cut extra ribbon from bow once bow is
tied. (If the ribbon frays, use a small amount of Fray Check on the ends: use
only when baby is not near and use bumpers again only once Fray Check is
completely dry) Tie bumper firmly and flat against the side of the crib.
Take bumpers out once baby can pull up on the crib. Monitor baby closely
when using bumpers in a crib. Quilts: If the yarn ties on the quilt become loose, simply retie or remove them. Don't use in crib when baby is sleeping.
