Ds2 started using a cot blanket when he was 6 months old and he is now nearly 7 and still sleeps with it every night.. Ds3 also has a cot blanket which he started dragging around when he could walk (to be like big brother) and now he sleeps with it every night as well. He copes better then Ds2 if it is in the wash or we have gone away and forgot to pack it. Ds2 is ok if we do forget it as he is happy to have it replaced with a special blanket but as soon as we get home he goes hunting for it..
We have rules with the kids blankets though. They aren't allowed outside of the house unless they are sick and going to the Drs or we are going on holidays then they are allowed in the car. Ds2 used to drag his every where including the bathroom (yuck) so we put a new rule down that it was bedroom or loungeroom.. Ds2 also sits and chews on his nigh nigh as he calls it..
Now this thread has reminded me they both need washing so will do that today
