Kids Pajamas
Fire safety laws require children’s sleepwear to be either flame resistant or tight fitting. This is odd, given that smoke detectors and improved fire safety standards make it very unlikely for kids to get burned by candles or space heaters.
Pottery Barn Kids has lots of great kids PJs that satisfy fire safety requirements without adding flame retardant chemicals or making the garments too baggy to be safe. They are also cute, which is always a good thing.
100% Cotton
If you’re looking for Kids Pajamas made of 100% cotton, look no further. These soft PJ sets are made with organic cotton baby rib and feature a snug fit to keep them warm and cozy. They’re also free of flame retardant chemicals, formaldehyde, AZO dyes and pesticides. They’re a great choice for kids and babies who tend to run hot and can double up as a summer set.
Organic cotton is a natural fabric that’s grown without harsh chemicals and pesticides. This allows you to protect the health of your child, farm workers and the environment. It’s also breathable and comfortable, so it’s suitable for year-round wear.
Some manufacturers use synthetic polyester to make their kids pjs. However, these materials can contain harmful chemicals that can be irritating to children’s sensitive skin. If you choose to purchase polyester PJs, be sure to read the label and follow the care instructions carefully. Some tags warn against using liquid detergent, fabric softener or chlorine bleach. This is because they could diminish the flame resistance of the fabric.
Breathable
Kids Pajamas made of Jersey are a good choice for summer and autumn nights because they are breathable. They also feel soft on the skin and are easy to wash. They are available in a wide variety of silhouettes and details. They are priced at a reasonable price and come in both shorts and tee-shirt versions. Some brands offer matching pajamas for children and parents.
Modal is a natural fabric that’s hypoallergenic and odor-resistant. It’s sourced from trees in a closed-loop process and has a soft, smooth feel. It’s also more breathable than cotton and can keep your child cool even in warm weather. These kids’ pajamas are GOTS certified and feature a tagless label, which prevents the skin from becoming irritated. They’re a great option for kids who toss and turn in their sleep.
Posh Peanut offers a range of kids’ PJs in both organic cotton and silk. They’re incredibly soft and comfy and feature wow-worthy patterns. They’re available in sizes from newborn sleep gowns to infant zip footies and toddler mix-and-match sets. These PJs also make great hand-me-downs.
Durable
The fabric your kids wear to sleep has a huge impact on their comfort. Look for soft fabrics that are also durable and breathable. Avoid polyester, acrylic, and other synthetic materials as they may trap heat instead of allowing it to escape or be carried through the fabric.
These kid’s pajamas are made with Modal cellulose, which is known to be super soft and silky. They’re available in a wide range of colors for both boys and girls. They’re a best seller with customers who love the incredible softness and fit. They also come in a 4-piece set of long-sleeve and short-sleeve tops with pants or shorts, making it easy to mix and match.
The ribbed sleeves and ankles help prevent them from riding up during the night. The tagless label is another plus, since no snags or strings are there to rub against your little one’s skin. This PJ set is also 100% organic cotton and GOTS certified so you know it’s safe for sensitive skin. It also comes in a variety of cute patterns that your little one will love.
Cute
Whether your child is looking for a fun print or something more subtle, you can find fun kids pajamas that suit their tastes. Look for breathable fabrics like cotton that will keep your child cool at night. Also, consider how durable they are and how easy they’ll be to wash. You want to be able to purchase quality pajamas that your kid will wear again and again.
The organic cotton PJs by Hanna Andersson are ultra soft and cozy. They feature thermal cuffs and an elastic waistband to ensure your child is comfy all night long.

They’re a great option for older babies and kids, too. These pajamas also come with a reusable fabric drawstring satchel to hold toys and other necessities.
Easy to Wash
If you’re shopping for children’s PJs made of polyester, look for a label that says “100 percent polyester” and read the fiber content. Polyester isn’t as soft as cotton, but it’s a good choice for kids’ pajamas because it’s flame resistant. Some manufacturers warn against using fabric softener, chlorine bleach or liquid soap, however, because these can diminish the fabric’s flame resistance.
Cotton pjs are a great choice for kids because they’re inexpensive, comfortable and machine washable.

These PJs are designed to grow with your child and are a great choice for hand-me-downs.
For a more luxurious look, consider kid’s PJs made of French terry. These PJs aren’t treated with flame retardant chemicals, but they are tight fitting to help keep your kids safe.
