Ancient Art of Hammock Sleeping Revived

Posted by Lisa Mulcahy



Dr. Sears, Dr. Karp, I’m on to you. It seems you may have hijacked some baby sleeping ideas from the ancient Mayans. It’s believed that they used hammocks to swaddle and swing babies to sleep over 800 years ago in Pre-Columbian Latin America. They didn’t need to read The Happiest Baby on the Block to know that simulating the womb experience was a surefire way to lull infants to sleep. Here’s your chance to put ancient principles to work with this modern marvel.



The Hushamok baby hammock creates a cozy sleeping environment that can help restless sleepers and even offer reflux relief. The hammock, frame, mattress and leaf spring, as well as a set of two matching fitted sheets are included. Another bonus is that it’s completely portable and comes with a travel bag.
