Find the Best Kids Sleeping Bags for Aussie Adventures
Getting a good night's sleep under the stars is key to keeping the little ones happy on your next outdoor adventure. Whether you're heading off on a family camping trip, a backyard sleepover, or a school excursion, choosing the right kids sleeping bag makes all the difference. At BCF, we’ve got a range of warm, durable, and lightweight kids sleeping bags designed to keep young campers cosy all night long. If you need help deciding, check out our Sleeping Bag Buyer's Guide blog, put together by our team of BCFing Experts.
What to Look for in a Kids Sleeping Bag
Picking the right kids sleeping bag isn’t just about grabbing the first one you see. You want to make sure it keeps them warm, fits well, and is easy to pack away. Here are a few things to keep in mind when shopping:
- Temperature Rating: Nights can get chilly, even in summer. Check the temperature rating to ensure your kids sleeping bag is warm enough for the season. A 0 to 10°C rated bag is great for mild conditions, while sub-zero options are better for winter camping.
- Size and Fit: A properly sized kids sleeping bag helps trap body heat and keeps them comfortable all night. Many bags are designed specifically for kids, so they don’t have excess space that leads to heat loss.
- Materials and Insulation: Synthetic insulation is lightweight, quick-drying, and ideal for damp conditions, while down insulation provides exceptional warmth, but requires extra care.
- Shape: Mummy-style kids sleeping bags offer better heat retention, while rectangular ones provide extra room to move. Choose a shape that suits your child's sleep preferences. Plus, check if they prefer a hooded style, or one with no hood!
- Durability: Kids can be rough on their gear, so look for a kids sleeping bag made from tough, rip-resistant materials that can handle the wear and tear of adventure.
The Best Sleeping Bag for Every Adventure
No matter where your next trip takes you, BCF has a kids sleeping bag to match. Here are some top picks based on different types of adventures:
- Camping Trips: A well-insulated kids sleeping bag with a soft lining and an adjustable hood is perfect for camping in our beautiful national parks or remote bush camps. Brands like Wanderer offer excellent options for keeping young campers snug.
- Sleepovers & Backyard Camping: If your little ones love backyard adventures or overnight stays with mates, a lightweight and breathable sleeping bag is the way to go. Look for fun colours and patterns to make their sleep setup more exciting!
- Hiking & Trekking: For families who love hiking, a compact and ultralight kids sleeping bag makes carrying gear easier. Check out our daypacks for easy packing and transport.
- Winter Adventures: Heading to the snow or camping in colder climates? Opt for a kids sleeping bag with extra insulation and a mummy-style design for maximum warmth.

How to Keep Your Kids Sleeping Bag in Top Condition
A good kids sleeping bag should last for years with the right care. Here’s how to keep it in the best condition:
- Store it loosely: Instead of keeping it stuffed in a sack, hang or loosely fold your kids sleeping bag to maintain the insulation’s loft.
- Wash when necessary: Follow the manufacturer’s washing instructions to prevent damage. Use a gentle detergent and avoid harsh chemicals.
- Air it out: After a camping trip, air it out to remove any moisture and prevent odours or mould.
- Repair small tears: Small rips can happen, especially with energetic young campers. A patch kit can quickly fix any minor damage.

- Hooded Designs: Helps keep their head warm on colder nights.
- Two-Way Zippers: Makes it easier to regulate temperature and get in and out of the bag.
- Built-In Pillow Pocket: Some kids sleeping bags come with a pocket to tuck in a pillow or rolled-up jumper for extra comfort.
