All-in-one sleepsuits for 8-9 years old

frizz_head

Last year when we went camping the kids were freezing at night and a fellow camper suggested the All-In-One fleecey sleepsuits (like you use for toddlers) but without the feet. I forgot to ask where she got them from, and am now kicking myself, because I cannot find them in that size anywhere. I went to Mothercare and they only had up to size 7-8 years.

Does anyone know where I can find some in bigger sizes.

Many thanks
Frizzle:D

No idea ... but, if push comes to shove ... buy some warm PJ's (Matalan/Peacocks are often good for a bargain) and simply .... stitch the tops to the bottoms - as long as they are button up tops ... they should do the trick, because the main thing the all-in-1's do is to stop the top from "riding" up.

Also, wearing socks is always a good idea when the anxiety of cold creeps in ... if you keep your extremities warm, the body will do it's own thing (So, if you're camping and that's why you need the all-in-1's ... a woollen hat might also be useful to pack).

All the best

Look at https://www.redoute.co.uk as they have fleecy suits without feet up to age 12. If you look in boys nightwear they have them in blue for boys or raspberry for girls. I would have done a link but I don't know how to.

oooo, thanks for that. My eldest is a small 13yr old and has really bad circulation. She loved wearing these. She wore the mothercare ones up until the age of about 10 'cos she is tiny. I reckon the Laredoute one will be fab for her

Thanks Liz - thats great. Just need to dig out some La Redoute vouchers now . The lady we met camping, said her kids put them on top of their jim-jams - and were really snug!!!

Thanks again.

Frizz I think I told you my story when you first started camping.

We were camping in Angelsey in September one year and my daughter (then about 2 and a half) spent the first night with as many clothes as I could get on her but I still felt that she was cold. Next day we drove to Bangor and looked for a fleece sleepsuit, which we found in Debenhams (it wasn't flippin cheap either!!!!).

That night she had her vest, pyjamas, socks, MY fleecy socks, jumper, fleecy all in one suite over the top, a vango sleeping bag and a duvet over the top of THAT She was FINALLY so warm and toasty I was quite jealous

Ooo I know how she feels - I was absolutely freezing - teeth chattering the lot - so could do with something similiar myself. Mr Frizz just wore his boxers!!! :eek: I had jim-jams (with knickers - couldn't face striping off to take them off) socks, zip up fleece, bobble hat and I was freezing!

Just to say that I plumped for the Mothercare ones, as they were on special offer £15 each or buy one and get the second half price. As it turns out the Age 7-8 is really roomy for my 8 year (as she is a bit dinks) and I got the 6-7 for my 5 year old.
