Origami meets the age-old art of swaddling in "Baby-Gami" and no longer does baby wrapping have to be an intimidating undertaking. Easy-to-follow instructions illustrated with step-by-step diagrams and unbearably cute photographs make it a cinch to execute flawless wraps. The first part of the book offers a variety of cocoon-like styles for newborns; the second shows parents how to create slings for "wearing" older babies. Once new parents master the basic swaddles and slings, they can branch out into more pizazzy terrain. Try the Picnic Wrap, the Glamour Sling, or the satin and tulle Gift Wrap. With advice from experts and real parents, tips on baby-carrying, baby-soothing, and a rundown of items not to wrap your baby in, "Baby-Gami" is a must-have for any new parent.

We were bought this book as a present and it's fantastic! The instructions are clear and easy to follow. The authors have added some lovely touches of humour. We would highly recommend this book either to new parents or as a present for new or soon-to-be parents.

This is a good book about slings and swaddles. I bought it to give an idea about slings/wraps to my partner. The only thing is the wording and it doesn't comes with a big range of ideas of how to wrap/sling your baby. It repeats the same various times. But because it's one of the only books to cover the subject, I give it 4****.. You can find more information online or with friends...

A bit of silliness really to put in with a 'new baby' gift. Cute pictures of babies wrapped up. Most new prents I know don't find much time to dress uo their baby as burrito etc, so really the only useful part of the book is showing you how to swaddle (in case a bossy older midwife didn't). A bit of fun for a flick through though.

Great gift for new parents :)
As a midwife I was always being asked to show parents how to swaddle their babies so they don't wriggle free (which the little darlings will do if you don't get it right),... Read more

Good tricks for new parents!
I've purchased this book for 3 expectant couples, and all have said it is very useful, particularly for nappy-changes and for unsettled newborns.

A very funny and practical book, thought the baby change wrap would be particularly useful for new mum's!
