The Little Green Sheep Quilted Moses Basket

A Moses basket earns its place for daytime naps in the living room and for bedrooms too small for a bedside crib. This one, sold mainly in the UK, comes with a firm natural-fiber mattress made for the basket, so there is no guessing at sizes, and it is listed as meeting the current British standard for Moses baskets and stands. The stand is sold separately. Use the basket only on a firm, level surface, such as the floor or a stand made for it, never on a sofa or a bed. Its life is short: about six months or a maximum of 20 pounds, and stop sooner if your baby can sit up unaided, roll over or push up on hands and knees. Keep the fitted liner taut and add nothing else inside; a sleep bag is all the bedding a baby needs.
