We understand the importance of a good night’s sleep for both kids and parents. Our sleep sacks, made from soft, breathable muslin and cotton, designed to provide comfort and safety for your little ones from 6 months to 7 years. But when is the right time to transition out of a sleep sack?
Understanding Sleep Sacks
Sleep sacks, also known as wearable blankets, are a popular choice for many parents. They offer a safe alternative to loose blankets, reducing the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) by keeping babies warm without the danger of suffocation.Our Hoolies sleep sacks are crafted with love and care, ensuring a loose fit that allows for freedom of movement while keeping your child snug and secure.
When to Transition to Sleep Sacks
Most babies can start using sleep sacks from around 6 months old, once they begin to outgrow swaddling.
When Should Kids Stop Wearing Sleep Sacks?
At Hoolies, we recognize that every child is unique. While conventional advice suggests transitioning out of sleep sacks around 24 months, we’ve found that many kids up to 7 years old still prefer using them. We offer these sleep sacks because moms, who help us design our ranges, tell us that children often kick off their blankets during sleep. Sleep sacks provide a secure and comfortable alternative. Our sleep sacks are thoughtfully designed to meet this need, ensuring your child stays warm and cozy throughout the night.
Signs of When to Transition from a Sleep Sack
- Increased Mobility: If your child is starting to stand, walk, or climb, they might find the sleep sack too restrictive.
- Size and Fit: Ensure the sleep sack still fits comfortably. If it becomes too small, it might be time to transition to a blanket.
- Preference: Some children simply outgrow the need for a sleep sack and prefer the feel of a blanket.
Making the Transition Smooth
- Introduce a Blanket Gradually: Start by using a lightweight blanket during nap times to get your child used to the change.
- Ensure Safety: Make sure the blanket is appropriate for your child’s age and size to avoid any safety hazards.
- Maintain Routine: Keep your bedtime routine consistent to help your child feel secure during the transition.
