Do you have 'summer duvets' for your kids?

[topsyandtimison]

Now the weather is picking up, I was wondering whether to put a lighter fogged duvet on my 4 year olds bed?
She currently has quite a thick one. Does anyone else swap duvets/tog, or not bother?

No I just have a medium one and in winter they wear pyjamas and in summer they wear just underwear.

Yes. Winter they have 13.5 tog and summer they have 4.5.

Yes.
But I don't usually have heating on in the night so it gets fairly cold in winter. I think its set to turn on if it gets to 5° (inside obviously) and in the summer the house gets quite warm.

My dc are adults now but yes, we've always done summer and winter duvets. We do it for ourselves as well. I would hate to have a winter weight duvet in summer so why should I expect the kids to put up with it?

Ds2 is at uni. Hell be heading back there at the weekend with a summer duvet having brought his winter one home at Easter. We've just swapped over the duvet on our bed and taken the winter one to be dry cleaned. When we pick it up it will go into.the loft until.October, then we'll swap them over again.

Yes we do but also don’t have heating in the room in winter

No. Winter ones all year round. They generally kick them off in the summer.

We have all seasons duvets, made up of a 9tog and a 4.5tog. Summertime we use the 4.5, spring and autumn we use the 9 and in winter we popper them together for 13.5tog.

Yes - just swapped over last week

The children's ones are medium weight wool duvets which equates to spring/autumn I think so I just add a blanket in winter and just have the cover when it's very hot.

Yes will be swapping soon to 4.5

He has a warm bedroom though

Ds has a summer one all year round and sleeps in only pants!

We all have 4.5 tog year round here.

*all year round

DS is a hot child in a south facing bedroom so has a 4 tog duvet in the depths of winter and a 2.5 tog the rest of the time. If he didn't wriggle so much he'd be okay with just a sheet, but he insists on being covered.

No and nor do I we have cheap Tesco value duvets and they tend to just sleep under the duvet cover in the summer or throw the duvet on the floor.

We've swapped the whole house over to a wool filled duvet (many brands on Amazon, all are good). They are suited to year round as heat regulating. Brilliant just brilliant. They feel thinner but the cosiness is there. Would never change back now.

When our DCs were young, they had 4.5 + 9.5 tog 4-seasons duvet kits, just like DH and myself. They were, still are, all hot sleepers of a naturist inclination, so although we started off using each component for 6 months, the 4.5 tog season soon lengthened until the 9.5 tog component was only used for a month or so in the depth of winter, if at all. I don't think any of them ever used the two bits clipped together, DH and I certainly haven't..

Mine have 4.5 tog all year round. Just wear thicker pyjamas in the winter. They’re 4 and 2
