Should I Give My Kid A Down Comforter?

Who doesn’t love down bedding? It’s ability to stay soft and cloud like provides comforting warmth on cold nights. But is down bedding right for everyone – can I give it to my children? Down is a soft filling material that is used in a number of bedding products including down pillows, down blankets and of course down comforters. Most down bedding tends to be white and this gives plausible reason for concern to parents. Whether you are wondering if down bedding is the right choice for a 7 year old or a teen we will provide the facts you will need to make an educated buying decision.

Why Use Down Bedding?

Down bedding is soft, fluffy and provides an unmistakable sleeping experience. The soft billowy down combined with crisp cotton is exquisite. Down bedding is actually very easy to clean and can be thrown in the washing machine and dryer for repeated washings. Down bedding is also very allergen blocking friendly and prevents most household allergens such as dust and dander from entering the down comforters. In fact there was an English study which showed that down comforter users had lower allergy issues when compared to users of other types of bedding.

What Size To Buy?

Most children and teens use either a twin bed (which measures 39 x 80) or a full/double bed (which measures 54 x 75). Typically most twin and full size comforters are sized correctly to cover these bed sizes (unlike some promotional store full/queens which are to small on queen beds, and likewise for promotional king size bedding on an actual king mattress). Generally a twin down comforter measures around 68 x 88. A full/double down comforter measures around 81 x 88. Both of these sizes will work great for those size beds (please note you can use a full/double size comforter on a twin mattress – you will just have some extra overhang).

Do I Need a Duvet Cover?

If you are buying the down bedding for your children and want to protect the investment and add some fashion flair – then a down comforter duvet makes perfect sense. Just like your sheets and linens – duvet covers can be removed from a comforter and washed as needed. By having a duvet cover you do not have to wash the comforter as much – if ever! Make sure that your twin size or full/double size duvet cover is no bigger then 2 inches more than the comforter.

What Warmth Level To Buy?

Down bedding keeps your body’s natural warmth in regulation. So when buying for a child or teen do not buy too heavy or warm. It is easy to add an additional blanket or sheet if cold – versus a child being too warm due to a too heavy comforter. When buying look for down comforters marked as warm or lightweight’ to make sure it is light in warmth coverage.

In summary don’t be afraid to treat your children to the same wonderful night’s sleep you enjoy. Feel free to purchase down bedding knowing how to buy and properly protect your investment. Properly cared for a twin down comforter can last for several years – you might even need to fight to keep it from going to college with them!
