blankies

Small cozy covers

Blankies is the affectionate plural of blanket, used especially by or with young children: Time to get your blankies and go to bed.

A blankie is often a child's comfort object—a specific blanket they're attached to and carry around.

Adults may use the term playfully or nostalgically: I'm grabbing my blankie and watching movies all day.
