Convertible feet pyjamas for toddlers

Filed under: Toddlers Preschoolers, Bedtime

I usually delay stuffing Nolan into his fuzzy feety pyjamas until immediately before bed.

We have hardwood floors throughout our house, and Nolan believes he can run (which, he totally cannot, he can lurch maniacally but he cannot run) Built in feet plus skidding toddlers = recipe for impending bruises and cries of dismay.

My Mom sent my solution in the mail this week: two pairs of convertible feet pyjamas. They are fluffy and deliciously warm and the feet are convertible. You can actually turn up the cuffs so that your precarious toddler can romp around the house before bed without fear of sliding, and then easily fold the cuffs over the feet to make built in slippers. This is important to me because this house is drafty and it's no fun to sleep with freezing feet.

Nolan used to writhe in fear because he knew that the donning of pyjamas meant forthcoming bedtime. Now I can dress him, let him pull the dogs ear and whiz across the kitchen and delay the inevitable meltdown.

Bonus is that he looks like an adorable little baby apple in these things. I love cute and practical.
