The blanket that was mostly designed during my latest trip to the amusement parks in Orlando! Walt features raised stripes of Chevron that give baby a nice texture to play with. Select a neutral with lots of bold stripes or choose a bright background and a combination of neutral and colorful stripes, like that seen here.
