Turn on the Lamps
Big light off, little lamps on. Creating ambience with lamps is a sure way to make a room cosier in an instant.
Go Outside
As much as we love cuddling our littl’uns, it’s so important to get out and about with them even if it’s just a stroll somewhere local. The fresh air will be good for you both.
TV Off. Music On.
You’re back from a walk and ready for snuggles with your new bundle of joy. Swap the TV for your fave playlist and enjoy some cuddles and bonding time. Not only will it feel super cosy but whenever you hear that song you’ll be taken back to those precious first moments with baby. Supercute.
Invite Friends Over
Staying in’s the new going out when you’ve got a newbie. Now’s the time to have people come to you. Get them round for a board night instead of a busy meeting out. You get to stay social and cosy plus there’s no cooking or washing up for you. Win win.
Check in on Baby Brain with a Quiz
Been in enough and fancy getting out? Why not try a local pub quiz with family or friends? Look for somewhere cosy. Whilst littl’un snoozes in their pram you can enjoy some time with friends in a home-away-from-home Koselig setting.
Share your ideas and inspo for bringing the Koselig into 2024 with your littl’un.
