t if it occasionally morphs into a fort wall or becomes a vehicle for sliding down stairs parent and kid testers both particularly appreciated the bag s built in stuff sack which is easy to use and impossible to lose runner up a rectangular sleeping bag rei co op kindercamp 40 kids sleeping bag this rectangular bag is similarly rugged but it s not as warm as our top pick it lies flat when unzipped so it can double as a compact comforter at camp or at home 70 from rei the rei co op kindercamp 40 uses similar materials polyester fill and shell to the kindercone 25 but this bag is rectangular instead of mummy shaped that means the kindercamp 40 doesn t have the hooded top and tapered foot that give the kindercone 25 a cozy cocoon like shape and it s not as warm the kindercamp s temperature rating is just 40 f compared with our top pick s 25 f the kindercamp 40 also doesn t have the fully attached stuff sack instead its sack is attached with a small tether but due to its rectangular shape the kindercamp 40 will feel roomier than the kindercone 25 and it can double as a comforter when unzipped best for best for sleepovers mimish big kid s sleep n pack this cozy sleeping bag packs up into a backpack comes in a huge variety of prints and colors and features several zip pockets for sleepover essentials 85 from mimish price varies by color the mimish big kid s sleep n pack was our testers favorite for snuggly indoor use it packs up neatly into a built in backpack complete with comfy straps and pockets for a water bottle and other little necessities a vast selection of colors and prints will appeal to most kids and three lining options offer different levels of warmth and coziness think sherpa for cold sleepers and smooth polyester taffeta for hot sleepers these bags are all rated to 37 f and made with quick drying synthetic materials so they d work for camping too upgrade pick for backpacking and colder weather big agnes little red if you re taking a preschooler camping in colder weather this compact bag is your best option there s a sleeping pad pocket on the back of the bag for added warmth and comfort you do have to supply your own pad though 100 from rei 100 from amazon a bigger version of the same bag big agnes wolverine for kids who are older than about kindergarten age the wolverine is likely a better fit it works for those up to about 4 foot 8 130 from rei 130 from amazon if your normal camping weather involves nighttime lows in the 30s or below the best bet for your kid will be the big agnes little red or the larger wolverine compared with our other picks these mummy bags are warmer rated to 20 f and like most bags from big agnes they both have a built in sleeping pad sleeve so your little camper will stay put on their pad and remain toastier throughout the night the big agnes bags pack up smaller than most but they re also more expensive even before you factor in the cost of an appropriately sized sleeping pad best for best for toddlers in cold weather morrison outdoors big mo kids sleeping bag this wearable sleeping bag keeps older toddlers cozy and warm it s intended for kids 18 to 36 months the synthetic version is rated to 40 degrees while the pricey down version is rated to 20 f 100 from rei buy from amazon may be out of stock best for babies in cold weather morrison outdoors little mo baby sleeping bag this tiny version is sized for babies between 6 and 18 months morrison outdoors recommends against sizing up for safety reasons 85 from rei if your family enjoys cool weather camping the big mo and little mo sleeping bags are a great choice meant for toddlers and babies respectively these wearable sleeping bags are extremely lightweight and extremely warm the 40 f versions are made with synthetic fill while the 20 f versions are made with down fill unsurprisingly the down versions are extraordinarily expensive but you won t find a better bag for the tiniest campers the research why you should trust us kalee thompson is the senior editor heading up wirecutter s kid coverage when she was first researching this guide kalee lived in southern california where weekend car camping is a year round activity she recruited nine local families with kids ages 9 months to 9 years to test sleeping bags on weekend camping trips including to the high desert of joshua tree national park and the sycamore groves of point mugu state park on the pacific coast after the family s move to maine her own kids continued to try out different sleeping bags at hermit island while camping near acadia national park and along the allagash wilderness waterway laura motley is a freelance writer who has covered kids hiking backpacks kids rain and snow boots and first pedal bikes among other products her two daughters ages 6 and 8 have been using sleeping bags on car camping trips for six years and in the fall of 2025 slept in a different bag every night for three weeks for this guide we drew on the expert advice collected for wirecutter s review of adult sleeping bags scoured existing online reviews and collected opinions from an assortment of camping parents from alaska to new hampshire we also asked our own kids to let us know which bags were the coziest warmest and cutest we interviewed helen olsson whose guidebook the down and dirty guide to camping with kids provides a fun and practical intro for parents looking to make a smooth transition into family car camping like all wirecutter journalists we review and test products with complete editorial independence we re never made aware of any business implications of our editorial recommendations read more about wirecutter s editorial standards who this is for is a kid size sleeping bag even necessary many people have an extra adult bag or two in the attic or garage so is one of those just as good that air pocket around your body inside the sleeping bag is what keeps you warm family camping expert helen olsson told us put a little kid in a big adult size bag and they re going to get cold that said kids can grow out of small bags quickly and many kids sleep warm and end up shedding their bag in seemingly any weather olsson s own kids started using hand me down adult bags when they were about 6 and 7 but they tended to sleep hot she said if you have older adult sleeping bags that are in good shape sure try them out before buying something new if they need a wash we have advice on that you can shrink that air pocket yourself by cinching the bottom of the bag beneath your kid s feet with the drawstring on a stuff sack or a jumbo size elastic band the kid size bags in this guide are intended for children who are about 6 months to 12 years old by the tween years it s generally more practical to just buy your kid an adult size sleeping bag which they ll have for years to come we have recommendations in our guide to the best sleeping bags how we picked and tested dan koeppel nyt wirecutter pretty much any sleeping bag will be fine for a living room slumber party but if you want a kids bag that ll do double duty for camping trips and outdoor adventures you ll want one that s built to ward off cold and damp climates and that s easy for a kid to stuff and unstuff on their own in evaluating sleeping bags made for kids we considered bag shape we tested both mummy style and rectangular bags form fitting mummy bags tend to provide more warmth with less mass while rectangular bags may feel roomier and have the advantage of unzipping to serve as a blanket weight and heft we weighed and measured all of the bags we seriously considered each of them were at or under 4 pounds and came with their own carrying sack or straps materials and temperature ratings many inexpensive sleeping bags are rated between 40 f and 55 f which means they may leave your kid shivering in a cooler climate some bags are also made of cotton which doesn t do much to repel moisture and doesn t insulate when it s wet so we mostly looked at bags that are at least partly made from synthetic materials as of 2025 many companies are now making sleeping bags that are certified free of pfas so we made sure to take note of any certifications and assertions ease of cleaning we washed each sleeping bag according to the manufacturer s instructions and observed how the bags tolerated the wash and dry cycle standout features we found that some bags have notably easy to use stuff sacks we also paid attention to zipper quality and the usefulness of cinches around the head and shoulders kid friendly prints and colors can be helpful especially with reluctant or nervous campers usable life kids grow fast we favored bags that seemed the most likely to fit a kid comfortably for many years while holding up to lots of use top pick rei co op kindercone 25 michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter top pick the best first sleeping bag rei co op kindercone 25 kids sleeping bag of all the kids sleeping bags we ve tried this one has the most qualities to love it s warm cushy and tough plus it was the one that our camping kids liked best 70 from rei the mummy shaped rei co op kindercone 25 offers a lot of great features for a reasonable price and it fits everyone from toddlers to small teens so the typical kid can curl up comfortably inside it throughout childhood erica solano and brad wickham nyt wirecutter it s lofty and warm the kindercone 25 has a fluffier feel than similar kids bags and we ve found that it does keep kids comfy when they re camping in cool weather as its 25 f temperature rating promises the sleeping bag s stuff sack is built into the bottom of the bag and the cinch that secures the sack closed doubles as a cinch to shorten the bag creating a smaller air bubble that traps heat and preserves warmth for smaller kids it s protective and durable the kindercone 25 s polyester shell is tough and it has a pfas free dwr durable water repellent coating that repels moisture its synthetic polyester fill insulates even when it s damp after many seasons of using this bag we ve encountered no tears or zipper issues it has a long usable life using the cinch we put kids as young as 13 months in this bag without the cinch the typical fifth grader will still fit comfortably inside and even small adults can squeeze into this bag if they have to a 5 foot 5 mom on our pacific coast camping trip did just that when her 2 year old son insisted on getting into his parents double bag in the middle of the night it has the best stuff sack even if you never use the cinch feature the attached sack is a hit as five families were packing up after a group car camping trip to joshua tree national park there was a fair amount of confusion as to which camp chair sleeping pad and sleeping bag matched which carry bag the kindercone 25 s attached stuff sack was a top draw for obvious reasons you don t have to worry about misplacing it and kids have one less excuse to avoid packing up their own bag it s a cinch using the stuff sack s drawstring you can adjust the kindercone 25 s length this makes the bag warmer and able to fit a wider age range of kids michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter the strip of fabric at the foot of the stuff sack can be used to carry the bag or to hang it to dry or air out michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter the kindercone 25 s stuff sack is permanently attached to the foot of the bag this is a small design tweak that makes a big difference when it s time to pack up michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter it s a cinch using the stuff sack s drawstring you can adjust the kindercone 25 s length this makes the bag warmer and able to fit a wider age range of kids michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter rei has been making the kindercone since at least 2008 and we ve now tested four generations of this bag there are typically three colors and patterns to choose from and they change every year or two and as of 2025 the newest version of this bag is made without pfas rei has a one year no questions asked return policy but it s for rei members only the return window for non members is 90 days flaws but not dealbreakers the kindercone 25 is marketed for backpacking reviewers complain however that the bag is bulky for backpacking and we agree if your kid is hitting the trail they ll probably want a lighter more compact bag like one of the big agnes bags we recommend a versatile rectangular bag rei co op kindercamp 40 michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter runner up a rectangular sleeping bag rei co op kindercamp 40 kids sleeping bag this rectangular bag is similarly rugged but it s not as warm as our top pick it lies flat when unzipped so it can double as a compact comforter at camp or at home 70 from rei if you want a colorful durable sleeping bag primarily for sleepovers or sleepaway camp consider the rei co op kindercamp 40 this bag has a similar price and feel to our top pick the kindercone 25 and it also uses pfas free polyester in its shell and fill the kindercamp 40 is not quite as warm but that may not matter to you and some kids may simply prefer the roomier feel of a rectangular bag it can unzip into a blanket like many but not all rectangular sleeping bags the kindercamp 40 easily unzips into a flat rectangle so a kid could also use it as a bedspread or a blanket the rectangular kindercamp 40 can be unzipped and used like a blanket or comforter michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter the stuff sack is tethered to the kindercamp 40 versus being fully attached as the kindercone 25 s stuff sack is michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter the size of the stuffed bags is similar michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter the rectangular kindercamp 40 can be unzipped and used like a blanket or comforter michael murtaugh nyt wirecutter it s pretty warm the kindercamp 40 has a 40 f temperature rating so it won t keep your kid as warm as our top and upgrade picks will but it s absolutely fine for most summer camping and for sleepovers unlike the kindercone 25 it doesn t have a hood but it does have a cinch around the top so a kid can cocoon inside if desired the kindercamp 40 is also covered under rei s warranty and just like our top pick the rei kindercamp this bag is now made without pfas flaws but not dealbreakers the stuff sack is tethered to the bag but it can rip off unlike the kindercamp 25 s fully attached sack the kindercamp 40 s sack is attached to the bag with a small tether this is still convenient and will prevent the sack from getting lost that is unless it s somehow ripped off and lost forever which actually happened when we sent this bag to sleepaway camp with one particularly high energy 8 year old tester best for sleepovers mimish big kid s
