20 Best Toddler Sleep Sacks: Wearable Blankets Your Toddler will Love!

Toddlers are at the age where they are constantly on the move, even in their sleep! This means that the blanket in their bed gets twisted, thrown off, and kicked onto the floor. But thankfully there is an easy and safe solution! Toddler sleep sacks are wearable blankets for your toddler. 

You may have used something similar when your toddler was a baby. However if you’re like me, you quit because you didn’t know there are sleep sacks specifically for those toddlers on the move! Most include foot holes so toddlers can easily stand and move around while wearing them.

I also mention a few sleep bags that do not have footholes. Do you know what those are great for? STROLLERS! Picture this: You are at an outside function and it’s chilly outside. You bundle up your toddler in warm clothes and give him a blanket. You are pushing your stroller along and almost fall as you step on something your stroller just ran over.

What is it? Well of course it’s the blanket you gave your toddler that he dropped. Now the blanket is dirty, your child is cold, and you almost twisted your ankle tripping over it. But an easy solution is a wool toddler sleep bag that snaps over your toddler’s shoulders. Your toddler stays warm and the sleep bag stays in place. 

Check out my list below of the best toddler sleep sacks followed by frequently asked questions!

“What does TOG mean on sleep sacks?”

A TOG is a unit of measurement used to calculate warmth, or thermal resistance, of a product. It is important to check the sleep suit’s TOG to calculate the warmth of the sleep sack based on your toddler’s room temperature.

How TOG Works: Once you know your child’s room temperature, match it to a sleepsuit with an appropriate TOG. For example, my son’s room is around 74° so his toddler sleep sack should have a 1.0 TOG. This chart is helpful and comes from Aden and Anais, a brand that makes baby swaddles and sleep sacks. This is a good example, but always check the specific brand you are buying and what they recommend.

FAQ’s about Toddler Sleep Sacks

“What is a Toddler Sleep Sack?”

A toddler sleep sack is a wearable blanket designed for children that are older and on the move. The sleep bags keep your toddler warm during the night and you won’t have to worry about them kicking their blankets off at night. It allows your child to sleep longer without waking up because they are cold. 

“Should Toddlers Wear Sleep Sacks?

Toddlers should be past the age where blankets are a suffocation risk. However, toddler sleep sacks are perfect for toddlers who kick off their blankets during the night only to wake up cold. Some toddler sleep sacks also have holes for your child’s feet in order to keep them from falling if they stand while wearing it. 

“Are Sleep Sacks Safe for Toddlers?”

You need to follow the sleep sacks recommendations on what clothing should be underneath the sleep sack based on its TOG and your child’s room temperature. You don’t want your child to overheat and become too hot.

Toddler sleep sacks with foot holes are also the safest for children that are mobile. You don’t want your child to try to stand and walk around while zipped inside a sack without foot holes, this could lead to them falling.

“When Should I Take My Toddler Out of a Sleep Sack?” 

The sleep sack will have a guideline for the ages they are recommended for. However, the most important part of using a wearable blanket is making sure your toddler is not going to overheat. They will not be able to kick the sleep sack off like a blanket. Get one that is lightweight and dress them appropriately underneath.

“Why Are Toddler Sleep Sacks Sleeveless?”

Halo is a popular brand of sleep sacks and their website answers this question well. Halo says the SleepSack wearable blanket is sleeveless to reduce the chance of baby overheating and is easier to be worn with regular sleepwear underneath.  Additionally, its sleeveless design makes it easy for parents to slip the SleepSack wearable blanket on and off the baby, even while your toddler is already sleeping!

“How Can I Keep My Toddler from Unzipping/Escaping Their Sleepsack?”

Toddler Sleep Sacks Conclusion

Toddler sleep sacks are such a great idea for toddlers who no longer want to be swaddled and are not ready for a blanket. It takes away the anxiety that they will cover their faces with the blanket. It is also a great alternative if you have a toddler like mine who always kicks their blanket off of them and then wakes up because they are cold. 

If you are looking for sleep sacks for older toddlers, the wearable blankets with foot openings would be best for mobility. However, if your toddler will not try to walk around in their wearable blanket then the sack would feel more like a blanket. Sleeveless sleep slacks are recommended most to keep your toddler from overheating, but there are options with sleeves if your child is sleeping in a cold environment.
