By Cristina Gomez

Do you remember what it felt like when you received your first sleeping bag? Do you recall the scent when you curled up and locked yourself into dreamland and wished the whole day away? That's how important sleeping bags are to any kid's heart for it is an important part of growing up. Whether for slumber parties, camping outdoors or sleeping outside the house watching the stars at night, happy and blissful memories are built on kids sleeping bags.

Now, how do you buy the perfect kids sleeping bags, a classic gift that is meant to let kid's imagination run wild? Basically, they should be made of high quality and breathable material that is supposed to withstand years of constant wash and use.

Length of the kid's sleeping bags is a major factor in buying one for we don't want our kids sleeping curled up like a baby to get full coverage. Do check the labels for manufacturer's description of how long the sleeping bag is.

Size does matter and this holds true for any kid's sleeping bags. Remember that kids sleeping bags are built on memories so consider the size that varies by style, brand and design paying close attention to the product label.

Your child is going to snuggle into dream world with this precious piece of clothing so the material and fabric used is most important. Kids sleeping bags are handmade, custom made or bought at the mall. With so many materials to choose from, consider the child's personality and style for better appreciation of the kid's sleeping bags. Go for flannel or cotton so when things get rowdy, the material will follow.

Not all kids are the same so before buying their sleeping bag, take the time to know what the child likes and what he doesn't like. As for material of the kid's sleeping bags, always think of comfort and ease of use because you do want them to grow up on their own. Kids sleeping bags can be either custom made, handcrafted or the all too easy purchase at the mall. Take into consideration the sleeping bags easy wash and wear features to say you some stress.

Buy the ones with hoods and draft tube or collar for warmth because they do have a habit of just dozing off to sleep and when they do, they just slip their heads to it so they won't get cold.

As with any rambunctious activity, either outdoor or indoor camping, outdoors camping or just looking at the stars at night activity, safety is a major concern. Buy kids sleeping bags with labels that say flame-retardant or flame resistant on both the fabric and insulation just to be on the safe side. Being extra careful is better that being sorry in the end. - 30443
