![]() Rookie Humans also has bolder and more limited designs, which may not appeal to all. The other top crib sheet winner, Rookie Humans, is made from 100% cotton, which is a preferred fabric for some shoppers for a variety of reasons but it didn’t have the same soft, cozy feel of the Copper Pearl blend. It holds up over time including through multiple hot water washes, it doesn’t shrink, it repels stains, it keeps its ultra soft feel and the company offers a wide variety of interesting designs. This product meets all the marks for an excellent baby sheet. How Does Copper Pearl Compare To Other Crib Sheets? After testing many sheets, finding one that is stretchy enough to easily fit onto the mattress but secure enough to smoothly stay put, appeared to be a unicorn-and Copper Pearl was that unicorn. Once it was secured, it didn’t move even with a good 12 hours of my wriggling, large baby moving around on it. Copper Pearl performed well here, too: the sheet never exhibited any wrinkles, and it wasn’t difficult at all to get the fabric around the mattress corners. When it comes to safe baby sleep, an unobstructed sleep surface is a must, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics and other experts, and that includes a flat and well-fitted sheet that doesn’t bunch up or wrinkle, which could pose a suffocation hazard. ![]() Photo by Alexandra Frost for Forbes Wrinkle-Free, Flat And Fitted Crib Sheets Our live tester gave the sheets a workout during naps and bedtime. Through the monitor, I saw him sort of scratching at them and checking them out as he dozed off, so I’ll pick interesting characters and prints from now on. ![]() While I didn’t used to think much of picking a crib sheet design, I have noticed during testing that my 16-month-old, my fourth son, is a bit calmer while falling asleep with sheets that have interesting designs. The colors for all of its prints were a bit muted compared to our 100% cotton sheet winner, Rookie Humans, so if you really must have that more vibrant color pattern, Copper Pearl might not be your first choice. ![]() Some of its other innovative designs include chocolate chip cookies and milk and pink zebras, but there are also plenty of pretty florals, interesting solids and more animal themes to explore. Now, Copper Pearl alone offers 105 options to choose from, including the mega cute bison and cactus print I tested. A decade ago, it often seemed like the design options consisted of white, blue, pink and maybe a couple of prints across many sheet brands. And baby sheet designers have upped their game in the last few years when it comes to design, especially since my first son was born almost eight years ago. Parents have to have fun where they can even if that means picking the cutest or silliest crib sheet prints.
