How to choose children smocked pajamas (part 2)

In previous part, I have suggested you two need-to-be-cared things to choose smocked pajamas for children. In this part, I will focus on materials and some typical materials for children pajamas

Because you used smocked pajamas for sleeping, you should select a material based on comfort. And lightweight fabric such as silk, cotton, and flannel are typical pajama materials. Lightweight, stretchable jersey material is also a good choice for restless sleepers who toss and turn throughout the night because flannel and other cotton fabric aren’t flexible and children can feel binding. Fleece or wool also can be considered, however, you should know that they can cause skin irritation or discomfort for some users.

Here are some details of typical materials

Silk

Silk is a natural fabric that can keep children warm during the winter months and cool during the summer months. However, genuine silk is expensive and must be dry cleaned because of its inability to get wet. Synthetic silk is cheaper and is often machine-washable.

Cotton

Cotton is very popular fabric. It is comfortable, lightweight fabric. Cotton is soft against baby’s skin and it doesn’t cause skin irritation and is breathable, allowing for good air circulation around the body. But cotton is not a good insulator of heat, so it isn’t a good idea for baby in winter

Flannel

Flannel is the best fabric for winter, but you should avoided using them in warmer climates as they will probably make your child feel too warm. Flannel is soft and breathable, allowing children to acclimate to the environment without sweating profusely.

Moisture wicking fabric

You should also consider fabrics which are breathable when choosing children smocked pajamas. Moisture wicking fabrics are designed for warmth and comfort while drawing moisture away from the children body. This helps to regulate the wearer’s body temperature, and these types of smocked pajamas are ideal for kids who suffer night sweats. 

In shorts, I have given you some information of materials for smocked pajamas for children. Hope you somehow find useful in it.
