A Piece of Australia, Wrapped Around Your Baby

There's something special about giving an Australian baby a koala — it's our national icon, universally adored, and carries a quiet, gentle energy that feels perfectly suited to a newborn. Our Koala Print Minky Blanket & Swaddle Set is a favourite gift choice for Australian and New Zealand families, and a heartfelt option for anyone welcoming a new baby Down Under.

The set pairs a sumptuously soft dimple minky blanket with a breathable organic muslin swaddle — both featuring our charming koala print. The minky is pure comfort: thick, plush, and incredibly gentle on sensitive newborn skin. The muslin swaddle is your everyday essential — breathable for safe sleep swaddling, versatile as a nursing cover, pram shade, or burp cloth, and designed to get softer with every wash.

This is one of our most popular gift sets, particularly for baby showers and birth gifts where the recipient is a proud Australian family.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

Is this set suitable for newborns?

Yes — both items are safe for newborns. The muslin swaddle is ideal for safe sleep swaddling. The minky blanket is perfect for supervised cuddles, tummy time, and pram cover use. Always follow Red Nose Australia safe sleeping guidelines.

Why is the koala set so popular as a baby shower gift?

The koala is a beloved Australian icon, and the print resonates with both locals and international friends sending gifts to families. It's charming, original, and practical — a combination that makes it a consistently popular gifting choice.

Is this a good gift if I don't know the baby's gender?

Absolutely — the koala print is completely gender-neutral and works beautifully in any nursery style or colour palette.

How do I wash the minky blanket?

Gentle machine wash cold with similar colours. Do not iron the minky fabric — heat can flatten the dimple texture. Air dry or tumble dry on low to maintain the plush feel.

What's the difference between the blanket and the swaddle?

The minky blanket (115x115cm) is thick and warm — ideal for cuddles, pram cover, and supervised floor time. The muslin swaddle (120x120cm) is lightweight and breathable — perfect for wrapping baby during sleep and for multi-use everyday purposes.
