You will find our pram duvets in 2 of our delightful natural materials, namely wool and kapok. These are the 2 duvet series that can best handle colder temperatures, considering that you will primarily use our pram duvets when your child sleeps outdoors.

Both wool and kapok are 100% untreated and chemical-free materials, which with high airiness in the fibers, provide your child with a breathable and temperature-regulating duvet to sleep with. With our natural materials, you will find that your child is kept perfectly tempered when sleeping in the pram, without the nap being disturbed by overheating or cold. At the same time, our materials are naturally hypoallergenic, due to the environment created around kapok and wool fibers, where dust mites and other pests do not thrive.

Which duvet in the pram?

When you tuck your little one in for a nap or a walk outside in the fresh air, there are some things you should consider before heading out. Namely, how your child should be wrapped up. Both to keep warm in winter and to release heat again in the summer months, so it doesn't get too hot in the pram.

Small children are not able to regulate their body heat themselves and therefore need help from outside to create the right temperature around them, so they neither freeze nor sweat.

Our small pram duvets are made to fit perfectly around the child sleeping in a carrycot or pram. There is not "too much" duvet, which you end up having to tuck down along the sides of the child and at the foot end. The duvet fits perfectly for the purpose it is designed for. It is easier for the child to move, as we naturally do in sleep, when it is not too tightly packed in a large duvet.

Therefore, we warmly recommend a pram duvet for your child's outdoor naps. And a regular baby duvet for indoor use in the bed, where there is more space.

You should also consider what material and thickness the duvet should have, depending on the season and your personal preferences.

PRAM DUVET IN KAPOK
Our kapok pram duvet is 100% organic and vegan. The kapok we use is completely natural and untreated. It is an ultra-light natural fiber that is extremely breathable and temperature-regulating. The fibers consist of a lot of small cavities that allow heat and moisture to be transported through the material, rather than being accumulated as in cotton and feathers. Kapok is also hypoallergenic because the fibers contain a natural bitter substance where dust mites do not thrive.

At the same time, the kapok duvet will fall heavily around your child and in that way create comfort. Many children like the comforting feeling of the duvet resting around them. It's like a warm hug from mom and dad.

PRAM DUVET IN WOOL
Our organic merino wool is perfect as a filling material in pram duvets. Wool is one of nature's own little miracle materials. Like kapok, wool is excellent at regulating the temperature around your child when sleeping outdoors. You will never experience your child overheating when sleeping in wool. At the same time, wool is also fantastic at wicking moisture and sweat away from your child. It provides your child with a more peaceful and undisturbed sleep.

What should baby wear in the pram?

When you put your baby out to sleep in the pram, it should be dressed in clothes and outerwear suitable for the weather. In the warm months of the year, a cardigan and a small bonnet may be sufficient under the pram duvet. But in the winter months when it's windy and cold, the little one should wear a wool snowsuit, booties, mittens, and a warm hat when sleeping outside with the pram duvet over them.

Make sure to create shelter so that it doesn't blow directly into the pram. And check on your child at regular intervals. You can gently feel the child's neck to see if they are warm or cold. If it's very cold, you can create a little extra warmth by placing a wool blanket on top of the pram mattress, providing more insulation against the cold from below. And you can place a wool blanket over the pram duvet in the cold months. 

Can baby sleep outside in frost?

Your child can sleep outside even if there are freezing temperatures. However, you should keep a closer eye on your child and the temperature. If it drops below 10 degrees of frost, it is not recommended for the child to be outside. Infants should not be put outside if there is frost.

Generally, for newborns, it is recommended that the child should weigh over 3 kilos or have regained their birth weight and be thriving before going outside to sleep in a pram.

Put your child in soft natural materials that keep them warm and well-tempered in the cold. With our organic pram duvets, your child can enjoy sleeping in the fresh winter air without getting too cold or overheated and sweaty. When you choose nature's own materials, your child will be much better able to regulate body temperature when sleeping outside in the pram than with synthetic materials.

We hope with our natural pram duvets, you and your child have a safe and pleasant experience napping in the pram.
