    KIDS sleeping bags?

    So I'm after a sleeping bag for my DD, 2.5yrs.

    Please note: I'm looking for a CHILD'S size sleeping bag, not an infant/baby grow suit style sleeping bag.

    I talking about something that a big kid uses when they go camping etc!

    Apart from going to a camping store, where might I find them? She'd love a Dora, princess, fairy sort of one, which is why I intend to avoid camping shops... Also it doesn't need to be rated to any particular temperature as she won't be doing actual camping in it, its just for when we go stay somewhere and don't want the hassle of taking sheets and doona.

    Any ideas?

    We got DD an In the Night Garden at Kmart a couple of years back, they had various ones. I think we paid $19 for it. and DD has used it camping and slept fine in it.

    How did you find it was in stock in Broady - did you ring your friend?? I could go to Doncaster, if I knew they had it that'd be fine. Maybe I'll ring... and get back to you Emma.

    You are lovely. Truly lovely.

    There is a discount shop near me that has 'high school musical' kids sleeping bags for $5 atm. The pic is pretty big though, so you would have to like high school musical.

    After HotI told me about these we stopped near that store the other day, i popped in and got the girls 1 each, they will keep them warm but are not the greatest quality if you want them to last forever but for $5 i figure they are just going to end up dragging them around a campsite or using them at home anyway.
    Once they are a bit bigger i will go out and buy them a proper adults single sleeping bag.

    Yeah, Kmart should be fine.

    Unless they're going somewhere cold, and you need a proper 0oC one, in which case Aussie Disposals etc.
