When dressing a toddler for sleep, it is important to consider the temperature of the room and to avoid overdressing them. Here are some tips from the search results:
- Start with a thermal onesie or undershirt followed by footed pajamas or a sleep sack and finish with a wearable blanket.
- Dress your child in a long-sleeved onesie, tops and bottoms or zip-up jammies under their sleep sack. Just keep their room temperature in mind.
- When choosing pajamas for your toddler, opt for soft, breathable, chemical-free fabrics such as cotton. Avoid fleece and other synthetic fabrics that don’t breathe as well. If it’s cold, you can add socks, a onesie, or use footed pajamas. While you want pajamas to fit snugly, they shouldn’t overly restrict movement.
- On a warm night, you can dress your baby in breathable cotton pajamas, a onesie, or even just a diaper coupled with a lightweight swaddle. On a cooler night, try layering a long-sleeved onesie or footed pajamas with a swaddle or sleep sack over top.
- 22C is very warm. Get a sleeping bag for your toddler. Grobag suggests a short-sleeved bodysuit plus a 1 tog grobag.
Remember to always check the temperature of the room and adjust the layers accordingly to ensure your toddler is comfortable and safe during sleep.
