National SIDS Awareness Month {Giveaway}

Though October is more than halfway over, it is still National SIDS Awareness Month, and the good people at Halo Sleep Sack are doing what they can to make parents and caregivers aware of ways to prevent Sudden Infant Death Syndrome in infants.
Via their Facebook page, Halo is sharing tips for helping babies survive and thrive:

• Place your baby to sleep on his or her back at naptime and night time.
• Use a safety approved crib with a firm, tight-fitting mattress.
• Remove all soft bedding and toys from your baby's sleep area (this includes loose blankets, bumpers and positioners).
• Use a SleepSack™ wearable blanket to replace loose blankets in your baby's crib.
• DO NOT put your baby to sleep on any soft surface (sofas, chairs, water beds, quilts, sheep skins, etc.).
• Room sharing is safer than bed sharing.
• DO NOT dress your baby too warmly for sleep; keep room temperature between 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit.
• DO NOT let anyone smoke around your baby or be in a room where someone has recently smoked.
• Educate relatives, baby sitters and other caregivers about these important safety tips.
• Tummy time is important for babies while they are awake and being supervised. Place your baby on his or her tummy for playtime to help strengthen their upper body muscles.

We love Halo's products, including their Sleep Sacks and more recently, the Early Walker Sleep Sack, which has little cuffs in the bottom for feet to stick out.
Though he's past the SIDS stage, it's been great using this Sleep Sack with SoJo, since our drafty house is on the cool side and I worry that he kicks off the blankets during the night. And we couldn't have made it through those first few months without the Sleep Sack Swaddle, as you may recall from my previous Halo review.

In honor of National SIDS Awareness Month, Halo is offering 1 K&K reader
