White goes with every bodysuit, every baby and every nursery. That's why white bibs are one of the handiest basics for the first years. At Tiny Giggles you'll find white bibs with a cheerful coloured border, with small prints or with soft pastel shades, from brands such as Meyco, Jollein, Baby Bites, Cheeky Chompers, BimbiDreams, Cam Cam Copenhagen and Lässig. Below you can read which bibs there are and how to keep white really white.
Why white bibs?
A white bib goes with everything. You don't have to think about whether it matches today's clothes, and it looks neat in photos. White is also a lovely choice for a baby gift when you don't yet know whether it's a boy or a girl. Many white bibs do have a small accent, such as a coloured border or a cheerful print, so they never look dull.
White with a coloured border
The waterproof bibs from Baby Bites have a white cotton front with a coloured border and a quirky print: Chicken with a yellow border, Flies with a pink border, Penguins with a black border and Pills with a red border. They measure 27 x 29 cm, have a waterproof inner layer and suit ages 0 to 2. That makes it just as easy to pick a colour that matches the pram or changing bag.
White with small prints
- Meyco: sets of 2 with Dots Pink and Dots Black, Dots Animal and Dots Stone Green, Panther and Dots Pink, or Triangle and Little Clouds in white and grey. There are both bandanas and regular bibs.
- Jollein: Bandana Bibs Teddy Bear (2 pieces) in brown and white, made of GOTS-certified organic cotton.
- Rabbits and Feathers: a set of 2 bandanas, beige with rabbits and white with colourful feathers, from 6 months.
- Stars and Trees: a set of 2 bandanas, blue with white stars and white with colourful trees and animals.
- Babyono: terry bibs with broccoli and carrot or a rabbit, from 6 months.
Bandana or regular bib?
A bandana bib has a triangular shape and looks like a little scarf. It's especially handy when your baby dribbles a lot, because it keeps the neck and the top of the bodysuit dry. A regular bib is rounder and covers the chest, which makes it better for spit-ups and first bites. Meyco offers both versions of several prints, so you can make a matching set.
Cheeky Chompers in white
From Cheeky Chompers there are Neckerchew bandanas with a teether in London Town (white with British icons, red-and-white striped back), Winter Bloom by Joules (white with flowers) and muslin Rosy Days. The Neckerbibs without a teether come as a set of 2: Stars & Zebras (white with silver stars and aqua with zebras) and Rosy Days & Hippo. They're reversible and have an adjustable neck strap. Only use a bib with a teether while your baby is awake and supervised.
For newborn babies
For the first weeks, small soft bibs are lovely. The Cam Cam Copenhagen Muslin Bib Pressed Leaves comes with a blue or pink print on white, made of GOTS-certified organic cotton. The BimbiDreams Bibs (set of 2) in Cottage, Happy Days and Indian have an organic cotton front and a waterproof back, 20 x 25 cm. The Lässig Bib Small Little Water Whale (0 to 12 months) is made of organic cotton.
For the table
When your child eats by themselves, choose a bib that protects clothes well. The Jollein Waterproof Bib With Sleeves comes in Peach and Pear, from birth to 2 years. The Lässig Sleeved Bib comes as a set of 2 in Little Forest Rabbit or Little Mateys (6-24 months). The coated nuuroo Luna Music Dino in cream is for 1 to 4 years. More are under mealtime bibs and sleeved bibs.
How to keep white really white
- Rinse quickly: rinse vegetable or fruit stains straight away with cold water.
- Don't leave it: the longer a stain sits, the harder it is to remove.
- Wash at the right temperature: follow the washing instructions; the Jollein Teddy Bear bandanas, for example, can go at 60 °C.
- Dry in the sun: sunlight helps light stains on white cotton fade.
- Wipe waterproof bibs: wipe waterproof and coated bibs with a damp cloth.
Always read the washing instructions for each bib, because not every material can take a high temperature. Waterproof bibs often go at 30 °C and not in the dryer.
Combining with clothes
Because white goes with everything, you can use a white bib every day, even with a party outfit or at a birthday. Choose a bib with a border or print in the same colour as the bodysuit for a calm look, or a contrasting colour for a cheerful accent.
A neutral baby gift
Don't know yet whether it's a boy or a girl? Then white bibs are a safe and pretty choice. Combine a set of bandanas with a small muslin bib, or put together your own box with the bib gift box.
How many do you need?
For the first months, four to six small bibs or bandanas are handy, because you change them often. When teeth come through, you'll use more per day. For meals, two or three wipe-clean bibs are usually enough.
