Cute Blankets for Kids

[oobedobe]

My two love blankets. They are often fighting over my (once lovely and white) soft fleecy throw, despite other blankets being available ) and it's not even cold here yet. I thought if I could get them a nice plush one each as part of their Christmas gifts it would be a good idea. Googling hasn't thrown up anything special.

Was thinking something hooded, fun, personalised etc, they are age 7 & 3. Anyone got any recommendations?

Dunelm Mill do lovely 'teddy bear' ones which are so soft and thick. They are plain though but there's lots of colours to choose from.

My DD has an elsa cuddle robe which she adores. So I'm getting DS a Spider-Man one.

Not personalised or hooded, but I bought this astronaut blanket for DS this summer, after it was suggested on MN - it's a brilliant bargain, very cosy and bigger than a lot of kids blankets.

primark have good ones
also Asda <a class="break-all" href="http://direct.asda.com/george/home-gardens/blankets-throws/D26M01G01C14,default,sc.html?&cmpid=ppc--ad--ggle-br----asda%20blankets&cm_mmc=ad-ppc--ggle-gen--%5Basda%2Btracking%2Bcategory%5D--asda%20blankets#direct.asda.com/george/home-gardens/blankets-throws/D26M01G01C14,default,sc.html?&cmpid=ppc--ad--ggle-br----asda%20blankets&cm_mmc=ad-ppc--ggle-gen--%5Basda%2Btracking%2Bcategory%5D--asda%20blankets" rel="nofollow" target="blank">direct.asda.com/george/home-gardens/blankets-throws/D26M01G01C14,default,sc.html?&cmpid=ppc--ad--ggle-br----asda%20blankets&cm_mmc=ad-ppc--ggle-gen--%5Basda%2Btracking%2Bcategory%5D--asda%20blankets#direct.asda.com/george/home-gardens/blankets-throws/D26M01G01C14,default,sc.html?&cmpid=ppc--ad--ggle-br----asda%20blankets&cm_mmc=ad-ppc--ggle-gen--%5Basda%2Btracking%2Bcategory%5D-_-asda%20blankets

Primark have lovely throws. Not necessarily children's designs, but lovely nonetheless.

Thanks for the ideas. I went back and did more googling and found a couple more options.
I think I will get something like these

The people who made Snuggies (remember that fad!) also have a similar product called Bright Eyes but they are a bit creepy imo

The search is over, I am getting these, I know my girls are going to love them!

Just thought I would update this thread in case it helps anyone looking for similar. I wasn't able to order the other blankets I liked as the shipping cost was too high :(

But after A LOT of googling, I found these really cute hooded blankets which are available in the UK. I have ordered the Panda and Cat for my girls.

They are also available from here (cost is a bit higher)

I am very pleased to have found exactly what I was looking for.

That second link has some good deals on gifts for kids to if you check out the sale section. Will mention it on the bargains post.
