Cuddly Top Five.

Why we love this week's Cuddle by Traveling Pea...

1. Giving back. Choose a fabric and support a cause. Each fabric collection represents a charity Traveling Pea supports. A percentage of all online sales are donated to one of the following organizations: The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, National Down Syndrome Society, and The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.

2. We all love a good party. Whether you are interested in a personalized registry appointment or a Traveling Pea party with friends, they'll bring the baby products directly to you!

3. Plenty of options. Choose from 12 funky and fun fabrics. All 100% cotton and machine washable.

4. Cuddly. The inside of the bibs are made with a soft, minky dot fabric that your baby is sure to appreciate. And it looks like they have a new product coming soon - Ready Made Cuddly Blankets! Let's hope they use some of the same cuddly soft fabric.

5. Clever. A smart answer to a common mommy annoyance ... from a company ran by creatively cool Moms!
