If you want more information on summer sleeping bags , this new article will give you even more details. The famous question "do you think he's too hot?" will be a distant memory once you've finished reading. A little reminder for future and young parents, there is no difference between a sleeping bag , a sleeping bag and a cozy !

Summer sleeping bag: why choose it?
The sun is coming out and the days are getting longer? There's no doubt about it, it's summer! It's time to adapt your baby's sleeping bag to the rising temperatures. Here are some tips for dealing with this change with complete peace of mind.
- Choose a suitable sleeping bag : neither too big nor too small... This ensures the well-being and safety of your baby. For birth, we recommend bassinet sleeping bags for babies from 0 to 3 months, then move on to a 0-6 month sleeping bag depending on the size and continue with a sleeping bag up to 36 months .
- Beware of temperature variations : while summer days can be very hot, temperatures generally cool down at night. The idea of leaving your child in their pajamas in their bed is therefore not ideal because they risk catching a cold . In this case, it is necessary to opt for a summer sleeping bag so that they do not suffer from temperature differences.
- Perpetuate the bedtime ritual : like a cuddle or a bedtime story, a sleeping bag is an integral part of a bedtime routine . It is necessary to perpetuate these moments so that your child keeps their bearings and succeeds in falling asleep.
And what if the weather is not nice or if you are staying in a region where temperatures are cool even in summer? Don't panic, think about all-season sleeping bags that you can simply adapt to your baby's nightwear. Are the temperatures soaring? Opt for a light bodysuit. Are they getting colder? Get out your best long-sleeved pajamas. At Cocoeko, the sleeping bags are equipped with shoulder snaps and a zip fastening to make nighttime changes easier.
Double cotton gauze: the lightweight ally for summer
To best adapt to the season, the choice of material for your sleeping bag is essential. When temperatures are high, it is best to avoid fabrics that are too thick and opt for cotton or linen, known for their flexibility and lightness. At Cocoeko, the sleeping bags are 100% Oeko-tex double cotton gauze and made in France. This certifies the absence of substances harmful to health and the environment. This natural material of incomparable softness is also comfortable thanks to its TOG1 heat index . What is TOG? This is the heat index of a sleeping bag, its number varies between 0.5 and 3. The latter must be adapted to the temperature of the room in which baby sleeps. The TOG1 sleeping bag is light and perfect in rooms with temperatures between 22 and 24°C . The TOG2 , on the other hand, can be used all year round, when the temperature of the room is between 18 and 22°C .
The sleeping bag: a trendy item for baby’s room
Exit the multi-colored sleeping bag that doesn't match the wallpaper. Instead, opt for solid colors and summery prints to bring a touch of naturalness and freshness to the baby's room. Pink, Camel, Mustard, Sage Green or floral pattern… Cocoeko offers a wide choice of sleeping bags in summer colors . It's up to you to fall for the one that will cover baby with tenderness and brighten up your interior. The little extra: for a trendy and unique birth gift, opt for personalization with embroidery near the heart!
