How to choose
the right sleeping bag ?
Indispensable and recommended up to the age of 18 months to cover baby while he sleeps, the sleeping bag, also known as a turbulette, comes in a variety of shapes and materials. So how do you go about choosing this cozy little nest in which your baby will spend a good part of the night... or even the day, in the case of newborns !
Which sleeping bag should you choose this season ?
Of course, there are winter sleeping bags made from warm, wadded fabrics and, at vertbaudet, with removable sleeves to kick-start the mid-season ! Summer sleeping bags, on the other hand, are lighter, made from breathable materials and sleeveless. But here's the thing ! Depending on the region you're in, or even the vagaries of the weather, how do you know exactly how much baby needs to be covered up to sleep ?
In fact, to be sure you're making the right choice, it's best to refer to what's known as the TOG !
What is TOG?
TOG (Thermal Overall Grade) is the measure of a sleeping bag's thermal resistance. Laboratory-tested, this is the indicator you need to refer to to guarantee baby's ideal sleeping temperature and well-being.
In short, the higher the TOG, the warmer the sleeping bag.
