Admiral Road Aardvark Scarves Review & Giveaway


The collection of Aardvark scarves from Admiral Road are adorable, warm and friendly. They are that dash of fun and excitement every outfit needs. Aardvark scarves make fantastic holiday gifts. I love the idea the bright green crayon scarf as a gift for a teacher. Scarves typically measure between Size 6" x 50" to 6" x 60". I love the overlap of the design sewn into the scarf. It creates a great visual effect.


Now when the slightest chill is in the air my son wants to wear one of these fun scarves any chance he gets. I think he looks very handsome wearing them. We like the softness of the fleece kids scarves.

Admiral Road is widely know for their personalized fleece blankets for babies and kids. But, I found that they also have fleece blankets for teens, adults and pets. Admiral Road just launched their jungle collection including personalized bloom baby blanket, lion baby blanket, and girl and boy elephant baby blankets. A portion of the proceeds from these new styles will go to FreeSchools World Literacy and will sponsor the expansion of a Women’s Empowerment Centre outside of Delhi. FreeSchools World Literacy is a not-for-profit organization that runs 80 schools for more than 3,500 women and children in India and Thailand.

Personalized blankets are all handmade in Canada from 100% polyester, non-pill fleece. They are extremely durable (can be machine washed and dried) and make lasting keepsakes.



Treasure Tees are New from Aardvark with design sewn into fabric and are made entirely in North America. There are four designs available and you can wash and dry this amazing shirt (inside out, low heat). Admiral Road also have gift baskets to welcome home baby and the are precious.
I'd like to thank Admiral Road for being a part of the Holiday Gift Guide and for giving one of my readers an assorted collection 5 Aardvark scarves.
