0.5 TOG sleeping bags, lightweight and ideal for warmer summer nights. Thermal comfort for your baby to sleep without overheating.

What does TOG 0.5 mean on a sleeping bag?

The TOG value measures the bag's thermal insulation: the lower it is, the cooler. A TOG 0.5, like the ones in this collection, is the lightest, suited to warm nights or rooms with a higher temperature, generally above 24 degrees.

What room temperature is a TOG 0.5 bag suited to?

TOG 0.5 bags are mainly designed for warm environments, typically between 24 and 27 degrees. It's recommended to adjust what the baby wears underneath to the room temperature and check for signs of heat or cold, such as the back of the baby's neck.

What's the difference between a swaddle and a classic sleeping bag?

A swaddler, such as the Ergobaby Swaddler, wraps the newborn snugly, helping soothe the startle reflex in the early months. A classic sleeping bag gives more freedom of movement and is used once the baby is no longer swaddled; the choice depends on the baby's stage.

How do I choose the right sleeping bag size?

The size is selected by the baby's age and height, stated on each model's page (for example 0-6 months or 6-18 months). For safety, the neck opening should fit snugly, so the baby doesn't slip inside the bag.

Are sleeping bags safe as a replacement for blankets and duvets?

Yes. The sleeping bag is considered a safe option because it stays with your baby and stops them covering their head with loose bedding during the night. Always choose the TOG rating suited to the temperature and the correct size for their age.

Can these sleeping bags be machine washed?

Most sleeping bags in this collection, such as those from Bemini and Ergobaby, are machine washable, following the label guidance. We recommend sticking to the recommended washing temperature to preserve the fabric and insulation value.
