How to choose a sleeping bag for your little one
Cape Town winters are damp and Johannesburg nights get cold and dry, so one sleeping bag rarely suits the whole year. The idea is simple. A bag keeps a baby covered without loose blankets, and you choose the warmth rating to match the room temperature rather than the season on the calendar.
For a room around 20 degrees, a lighter cotton bag over a short-sleeve vest is usually enough. Nearer 16 degrees, add a long-sleeve layer or choose a warmer merino option. The neck and armholes should be snug so your baby cannot slip down inside, and the hem should leave room for kicking.
