  First, our crib bumper pads are four pieces, so you can choose which pieces to remove if necessary, and it allows you to continue to use them with convertible cribs. Second, we have slightly longer ties so that they can be tied tight even around the thickest of wood cribs (watch out for short ties that don’t reach around the crib). Third, all of our crib bumper pads are slip-covered. So don’t stress if some kind of icky bodily-fluid gets on them – everything is machine washable”.

  So, Project Nursery reader, what’s your take?  Do you use crib bumper pads or not, and why?  Additionally, in a recent conversation with a prominent parenting magazine, we learned they will no longer be printing photos of bumpers without a safety caveat. With slight form and function, alternative styles are available to combat the safety concerns of standard bumpers – like the crib bumper pads shown here. There’s no question that the crib bumper pads help finish out a crib, it’s like having a comforter and shams on your master bed. The design aspect is there. But there’s also a practical aspect to them, they protect little arms and feet from slipping between the slats of the crib, and keep peeking eyes from seeing you sneak into the room to make sure they are asleep.
