Nightwear for kids: FAQs

• What fabric is best for kids’ nightwear?

  Cotton is the best choice as it’s breathable, soft, and gentle on sensitive skin. For winter, fleece or flannel adds extra warmth without irritation.

• What should I look for in winter nightwear for kids?

  Choose soft, warm fabrics like fleece or thermal cotton. Look for full-sleeve sets, footed onesies, or sets with matching socks to keep them extra cosy.

• Are onesies better than two-piece sets for younger kids?

  For babies, onesies and sleep sacks are better as they stay in place and keep them warm. As kids grow, two-piece sets allow for more flexibility and comfort.

• How often should kids’ nightwear be washed?

  Ideally, nightwear should be washed every two to three wears, but if your child sweats a lot or spills something, daily washing is best.
