Winnie the Pooh Baby Bedding

Pooh bear baby bedding can add a fun touch to your baby's nursery.

One of the most popular and whimsical themes for crib bedding is Winnie the Pooh characters.  Winnie the Pooh baby bedding is charming and can be the theme for your child's entire nursery.

Winnie the Pooh and his friends Eeyore, Piglet, Tigger, Roo, Rabbit, Nana and Owl can add a dose of fun and whimsy to crib

Should you go for modern day Pooh or old fashioned Pooh designs?  How can you carry the Winnie the Pooh theme through the entire nursery?  And where is the best place to purchase Winnie the Pooh baby bedding?  Read on to find out more.

Pooh Bear Baby Bedding Works for Boy and Girl Babies

Although Winnie the Pooh and most of his friends are male characters, Pooh stories appeal to both genders so you can use Winnie the Pooh bedding and decor in a nursery for a baby boy or girl.  In fact, you can find Winnie the Pooh bedding designs in both blue, pink, yellow and green color schemes.  Winnie the Pooh baby bedding is especially great for parents who wait until birth to find out the gender of their baby because they can decorate the entire nursery with this gender neutral theme.  

How much Winnie the Pooh baby bedding cost?

Pooh bear bedding and other Disney baby bedding is very popular, so it is typically priced a little higher than other crib bedding.  But even so, you can find cheaper versions of Pooh bedding sets for around 50 dollars.  Better quality sets will be in the 100 dollar and up range.  You can save money by purchasing online or at a discount store.
What to look for in Pooh baby bedding

When you start looking for Winnie the Pooh bedding, the things that you'll want to pay attention to are quality, ease of cleaning and the type of Pooh theme.  Quality bedding is safer for your child and because your baby will make lots of messes in the crib, all bedding should be easy to clean.  The different Pooh design that you choose is simply based on your personal taste.

Winnie the Pooh baby bedding is adorable no matter what design you choose, but depending on where you get your bedding the quality can vary.  Cheaper versions that aren't licensed by Disney may be thin and designs may be printed instead of
sewn or emroidered on fabric.  And because any holes in baby bedding are a danger to your child, the quality of the stitching and the fabric are important.  Make sure that all stitches are sturdy and the fabric cannot be easily torn.

Another quality issue for Winnie the Pooh baby bedding is the type of fabric used.  Because baby's skin is sensitive to scratchy fabrics, make sure that the bedding is made from a quality fabric like cotton or at least a cotton poly mix. 

Check to see that the Pooh bear baby bedding is machine washable.  Your child may spitup, drool or deposit other liquids onto his or her bedding so it should be simple for you to throw the items into the washer.

And you'll need to decide which type of Winnie the Pooh design you'd like on baby's bedding.  There are several different styles of Winnie the Pooh characters, from the old fashioned muted color look to a bright colored modern Pooh.  You can also choose from a variety of colors for the bedding and you could go further by keeping the Pooh theme limited to certain Winnie the Pooh characters. 

Different Kinds of Winnie the Pooh Baby Bedding

Winnie the Pooh and the other story characters have come a long way since AA Milne created them back in 1926.  These days the common bedding designs for Winnie the Pooh are either the old fashioned Pooh or a more modern and round looking Pooh.  Depending on the theme and colors of your child's nursery, you can choose the type of Winnie the Pooh baby bedding that will work best for you.

Typically, old fashioned Winnie the Pooh bedding comes in more muted colors and has a less cartoonish look.  Old fashioned Winnie is a mustard yellow or pale yellow color and is usually only accompanied by Eeyore and Piglet.  This kind of Winnie the Pooh baby bedding is good if you want to create a restful area for your baby with soft colors.  It usually comes in shades of white, yellow or green.

The more modern Pooh bear baby bedding comes with a brighter set of pastel or vivid colors and is a big more playful.  This kind of Winnie the Pooh bedding features more of the different characters and a wider range of colors.  If you want to create a very playful and fun environment for your child, the modern Pooh is a good choice.  This bedding comes in all different colors, from yellows and greens to blue, pink and lavender.

Where to buy Winnie the Pooh baby bedding

Pooh bear bedding is very popular so it's easy to find at many different places.  You can get Winnie the Pooh baby bedding at department stores like JC Penney or Sears - this is one place where you'll find higher quality.  And you can also buy Pooh bear baby bedding at discount stores like Walmart or baby specific shops like Babies 'R Us. 

One of the best places to find Winnie the Pooh crib bedding at reasonable prices is on the internet.  Online you can buy directly from Disney at the Disney shopping website or you can purchase from a bedding website.  You can also browse in different online stores and compare different designs and prices to find the best one for you.

Variations on Winnie the Pooh for Baby's Nursery

If you don't want to do the common Winnie the Pooh theme for your baby's nursery, there are ways you can vary it to do something different.  Although Winnie the Pooh himself is the most recognized character from the Pooh stories, there are several other characters that you could use in a child's nursery.  You could do a Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger, Kanga and Roo, Rabbit or Owl themed nursery and purchase coordinating Pooh bear bedding to match.

Another thing you could do is take a specific Winnie the Pooh story and work from that for your theme.  Stories such as when Winnie the Pooh uses a balloon to get honey from a tree or when Tigger gets stuck in a tree or when Pooh bear goes looking for Heffalumps and Woozles would all make great themes for a baby's nursery.  If you did ones of these themes, Winnie the Pooh baby bedding would be a fitting addition to the room decor.

Which Pooh bedding pieces do I really need?

Just because you want to do Winnie the Pooh baby bedding for your child's crib doesn't mean you have to buy an entire bedding set.  If you want to stick to the basics, what you really need is a fitted crib sheet and perhaps a crib bumper.
