PenguinBag review and booties giveaway

Congratulations to Kat! I will be in contact and sending those booties out to you shortly.

Winter finally hit Wellington. To be honest, it’s been a rather mild winter, but we’ve had a few extra nippy nights. And just in time, we received these awesome sleeping bags for the kids.

Princess and penguin monkeying around

The kids were thrilled with their PenguinBags. They thought they looked like Teletubbies and loved monkeying around in them.

Bedtime fun for the penguin and astronaut

PenguinBags come in two weights: summer (1 tog) and winter (2.5 tog). The winter one was actually too warm for Abby the first night. I have confidence in this the next time we go camping in Spring :)

The outer and lining of the bags are made of cotton. The outside is all velvety, and there are fantastic embroidery details.

You can see the snuggliest

Besides the warmth and cuteness, these sleeping bags are quite practical.

It’s easy enough to go to the toilet without fully stripping, and the kids can still do themselves up afterwards.

The legs allow the kids to stand up and do normal stuff without being constrained. The bottoms of the legs keep things in place and still allows for socks and slippers.

My cuddly penguin

Also, my kids like sleeping frog-legged, fetal, bum-up, tummy down – you name it. The bags don’t seem to get in the way of their chosen sleeping position.

Happy penguin feet

And how about the booties? Cam’s yellow ones really complete his penguin outfit. They have non-slip soles so he can still zoom around on the polished floors before bedtime.
