My Thoughts

My daughter is a huge fan of Steven Universe. I think it's her all time favorite show. The lovable Gems and their magic fusion has grown a little on me as well. There's a lot of deep and meaningful messages hidden in his children's show.

For my teen, a little Steven swag was the perfect gift choice. We picked out the fleece blanket and it was just awesome. The version we received has Cookie Cat on it, which is Steven's favorite dessert/character.  The front oft he blanket has one large image of the cat in a space suit with stripes in pink, black, and cream. The back of the blanket is pink with dozens of cookie cats.

My daughter loved the design, but she also loved how soft and cozy the blanket was. It's made from fleece so it's warm and soft. It's the perfect blanket to snuggle into during a cold winter night when you feel like watching a Steven Universe marathon. If you have a Steven Universe fan in you household, be sure to check it out.
