Ultimate Guide to Kids Slumber Bags

Shopping for a sleeping bag can be baffling, especially if you are a first time buyer. To make things easier for you, we have put together a list of the five most important tips to take note of and follow when shopping for a lightweight sleeping bag.

Thermal insulation in the bag is highly important. It should be noted that any sleeping bags for the matter, cannot produce heat by itself. Instead, it only works to retain the heat generated by the person in the bag. Therefore, thermal insulation is affected by a variety of physiological factors such as gender, as women tend to feel colder faster as compared to men, age, metabolic rates tend to slow down as one gets older as well as energy input from food and condition of the person before sleeping in the bag. This is due to the fact that the amount of energy produced while you sleep is affected by the day's activities and energy input into your body.

Additionally, these slumber bags are usually printed with attractive graphic designs that will appeal to both kids and adults visually. These include a polka dot print, an animal farm print as well as certain Disney trademarked characters etc. They are also widely available in bright, neon colours for older kids who might prefer single shades. Not only are these bags appealing visually, they are not bulky and it makes taking it from one place to another hassle free. Furthermore, certain models will come with straps or slings that will make it all the more convenient to be carried around.

The filament insulation has been developed by Vaude to improve the overall comfort and quality of its featherlight models. It is made of synthetic fibers that are soft, lightweight and highly compressible. Other benefits of the material include superior warmth even in wet conditions. This is an imperative point to note since camping outdoors means that the sleeping bag would have to be subjected to the weather conditions and environment.

Lastly, these indoor sleeping bags do have thermal insulation qualities but are advised mostly for indoor use. Due to the lightweight fabrics it is manufactured with, it is softly lined with smooth padding to support the back and provide comfort. For additional warmth, kids are encouraged to wear thermal underwear or a jumper to sleep in the indoor sleeping bag.

Looking at the above points to take note of, it is certain that there are indeed a number of considerations to decide on before purchasing one. Choosing a quality kids slumber bag can be a reasonably good investment as these can be used year in year out.
