summer duvet for cot bed

I have been mostly lurking on mumsnet for a while but now have a problem that I can't find the answer to in the archives, so I hope someone can help me...
My two year old absolutely insists on going to bed wearing her pyjamas and tucked into her duvet. At the moment she's waking up drenched in sweat which must be horrible for her. I think she likes the snuggliness of the duvet but I would really like to find a thinner one - hers is 4 tog. Does anyone know where I can get a 1.5 or 2 tog duvet?
Thanks

Could you just use the duvet cover with no duvet in it? That's what we've been sleeping under (although DD still has her duvet). Or put a thin blanket inside the cover instead of the duvet?

Mothercare used to do an acclimatiser duvet. So warm in the winter, cool in the summer.
Don't know if they still do it tho, can't find it on the website.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I have tried the duvet cover on its own - I tucked her in and she wailed plaintifully 'my duveeeet'. But the blanket idea might work, I will try that.

I can't find anything on Mothercare's website either but may try a shop to see.

My dd is like that, too. We go in to her when she's fallen asleep and pull the duvet down to her legs. We also open the window then and leave it open until we go to bed.
