Best kid merino wool base layers for toddler?

Hi hive mind - I have a toddler who hates coats and jumpers with a passion but will wear her superlove merino wool pjs under her clothes without complaint (that were passed on from a friend who skis).

However, at £80-90 an outfit I can’t imagine getting enough for her to wear all winter. Especially, as I’d obviously prefer to change her out in the morning so I’d need 6 outfits to get through 3 days. I’d prefer to have 5 days - since they don’t go in the tumble dryer and ideally would be wool washed with other jumpers.

Are there any other brands you would recommend for merino wool base layers? Have seen Dilling, H&M, Polarn o Pyret come up on google. She’s in age 2-3 clothes.

Polarn o pyret are excellent. So are merino kids

Purchase 2nd hand

and don’t be too posh. You don’t need 6 sets of PJs for 3 days. 1 for night. 2 for day.

And night time can be used for day if necessary

some nice warm socks. 2 pairs.

and an all in one. From Boden Or Didrikson are both excellent and not too bulky
and 2nd hand market will have them.
