What tog should a child's duvet be?
The ideal duvet tog for a child lies between 4.5 to 5.0. Since children are small, their duvets tend to trap more heat than adults, so they don't need as much insulation as an adult might.
However, it depends on the temperature of the room. If their room tends to get colder by night or for colder weather, you can use a duvet with a tog ranging from 9.0 to 13.5. You may even use duvets with different togs for summer and winter.
What tog duvet for 3 year old?
Since three-year-olds tend to move around a lot in their sleep and can get warmer, a quilt for a 3-year-old needs to be lightweight and breathable. They can't regulate their body temperature as efficiently, so a thinner duvet works best.
A tog rating between 4.5 – 5.0 is suitable for summer months, while a tog of 7 or 7.5 is better for winter. Additionally, maintaining a room temperature of around 18-21 degrees Celsius, especially at night, is ideal for your toddler's comfort.
What tog duvet for 2 year old?
A 2-year-old can safely use a duvet, and this is where a lightweight duvet for a 2-year-old comes into play. Alongside the duvet, you can introduce lightweight blankets, and even a small pillow or a plush toy for a bit of bedtime comfort. Just be mindful of the pillow size to prevent any adventurous crib escapes.
What tog duvet should a 5 year old have?
Typically, it is considered okay for a five-year-old child to use a full-sized duvet. However, it is advisable to start with a lightweight duvet with a duvet between 4.5 and 9. You can change this up as the seasons change or if the room temperature significantly drops during certain occasions.
It also depends on the child and his or her body temperature.
