    In summer, whether indoors or outdoors, a summer sleeping bag provides the solution. These sleeping bags often have zip-off sleeves and are suitable for summer, spring and fall days. They are made of lightweight materials such as cotton, bamboo, terry cloth or tencel.

    the winter sleeping bag

    For cold winter days, there is the winter sleeping bag, which is quilted or lined , to keep your little one warm. These sleeping bags often have long sleeves that you can zipper off. Materials range from cotton to fleece.
