Best Milestone Blanket Overall: Luka & Lily Baby Monthly Milestone Blanket

What We Liked

• Tops in softness. We loved how soft this blanket is.

• Two frames to spotlight numbers. Some blankets don’t include this—it’s nice to have. Of course, you can also use your phone to draw circles/arrows pointing to the day/week/month . . . so that’s an option as well.

• Includes matching bib.

What Needs Work

• 40 x 60″ horizontal orientation. It’s easier for sites like Instagram to use a square-shaped blanket—but this can work.

Best Milestone Blanket for Girls: Kiddy Bliss Baby Monthly Milestone Blanket

What We Liked

 Square format works nicely for Instagram.

• Plush blanket is very soft.

• Includes pink headband. 

Best Milestone Blanket for Boys: MeBlanky Baby Milestone Blanket

What We Liked

• Two sided design. This blanket has milestones on one side and a simple pattern on the flip side. That gives the blanket extra use, beyond documenting milestones. Nice!

• Extras are nice—three felt frames and a felt arrow, plus matching bib.

• Machine washable.
