sleeping bag ?
Looking for sleeping bags for my Grand kids... 5 years old.
Recommendations? Mike |
Glad makes some pretty good ones, with good strong pull strings...
|
MIkie, bags to buy or bags to use?
|
Dan,
Buy. They will be Christmas presents. Karl, That's what they use now. Mike |
What kind of use? Is this for neighborhood sleepovers or serious camping? Where?
Sleeping Bags have a wide variety of temperature ranges and composition. I've got a medium temp range (good to about 30*F) that is very light and packs pretty small. Lower temps get larger and heavier. Basically, need more info. |
Mike, I'll be back on Thursday. I'll call when I get back.

Mike, back in our Boy Scout days I started out with Coleman bags with 30 degree ratings but ending up with 10 degree bags to satisfy all the different terrains we faced in Arizona. Never went camping in snow except when we were surprised in the morning. Modern prices about $60.

Here is a review with several varieties and comfort levels. Generally the kids are ok with moderately priced ones as they normally don't venture out when the anticipated weather is to be extremely cold.
http://www.nextag.com/coleman-sleeping-bag/compare-html Outdoor camping with friends and family creates some of most lasting memories that children can ever develop. |
I'm looking for something in the 0 degree range. This should keep them warm no matter what. Serious camping. Do they even make bags specifically for kids 5 to 10 years of age? I remember when I was young we used a grownup one and that was it.

Mike SlumberJack makes smaller bags but they are not marketed specifically for kids.

Mikie, sign em up for the Army, won't cost you a dime! :eek:

You are near Cabella's in Phoenix. That's the Mothership for all things outdoors....
|
Yup,
Went to Cabellas yesterday bought ammo. Went to Dicks sporting goods bought knives. Looked at the bags. |
Well,
So much for research.. Ginny went and bought 2. Thanks Guys for the info. Mike P.S. Glad bags would have been cheaper. :):) |

Sounds like someone had way to much Joanne time today.
Mike |
I have to admit, that's the way it works for me.
