Cot Bumpers

They are designed to cushion the baby from the hard sides of the cot and prevent the baby's limbs from getting caught in the bars.

Cot bumpers made of kikoy are a type of cot bumper that are made from a traditional East African textile called kikoy. Kikoy is a brightly colored cotton fabric that is traditionally worn as a sarong or wrap in East Africa.

Cot bumpers made of kikoy may offer some of the same benefits as other types of cot bumpers, such as cushioning the baby from the hard sides of the cot and preventing the baby's limbs from getting caught in the bars. However, as with all types of cot bumpers, there may be concerns about the potential for suffocation or strangulation if a baby's face or neck becomes wedged against them.

If you are considering using cot bumpers made of kikoy, it is important to follow the same safety guidelines as you would with other types of cot bumpers. This includes ensuring that the bumpers are securely fastened to the cot, regularly checking them for signs of wear or damage, and always supervising your baby while they are in the cot. It is also a good idea to consult with your pediatrician or other trusted experts to get their advice on whether cot bumpers are appropriate for your baby and your individual circumstances.

Ultimately, it is up to parents to make an informed decision about whether to use cot bumpers based on their individual circumstances and the advice of their pediatrician or other trusted experts. If parents do choose to use cot bumpers, they should make sure they are securely fastened and regularly check them for signs of wear or damage.
