Baby Sleeping Bags are an essential for any baby or toddler. Not only are they a safe alternative to bedding, they can also be cost effective compared to bedding and much easier to take when out and about. So why should you use a baby sleeping bag?

1. A safer alternative to traditional bedding and blankets. Wriggly babies can get tangled in bedding and wriggle down under any bedding. A sleeping bag is like a wearable blanket and removes the need for bedding, making a safer sleep environment for baby.


2. Prevent waking from the cold. Blankets not only pose a risk of suffocation, but can also be kicked off during the night, meaning baby can wake up cold. By using a sleeping bag, baby will be wearing their blanket and won’t be able to kick this off. Using a sleeping bag with merino can also help regulate baby’s temperature, ensuring they’re not too hot and not too cold.


3. Create a strong sleep association. Using a sleeping bag creates a strong sleep association. As soon as baby goes into the bag, they know it’s time for sleep. This is great for when you’re out and about or travelling as baby is reminded it’s sleep time no matter what her surroundings.


4. Comfort Baby. By creating a sleep association you can comfort her and keep her warm when away from home. A sleeping bag is easy to transport and has the familiar smell of home, a positive, comforting association for baby’s sleep in an otherwise unfamiliar environment.
   


5. Cost Effective. Baby sleeping bags may seem expensive, however they replace the need for many sets of sheets and blankets. There are many options which can be used year round by adjusting the layers underneath. Woolbabe sleeping bags are generous in length and will be used for multiple sleeps per day for about 2 years.
