About

The cradleboard or in the Ojibway language "Tikinagan" has been used for generations to carry infants while keeping babies safe and comfortable. Indigenous people throughout North America indicate that it was common practice to cradleboard newborn children until they were able to walk, although many mothers continued to swaddle their children past their first birthday.

This program is for children and we have a limited number of kits.
