In a recent article I commented on buying the best might be cheaper in the long run. The assumption is the item purchased will be taken care of and not abused or lost. For that reason I suggest buying good quality but not necessarily the most expensive camping sleeping bags for children. A camping sleeping bag for a younger person should be of good quality and be able to be cleaned many times but with the understanding that it might need to be replaced fairly soon.
However, you still need to consider where and what temperatures it will be used, For example if you take your child on cold weather camping trips you still need to have sleeping bags rated for the weather. They still would need the mummy type sleeping bags that you would want. Eureka, SwissGear and Stansport make a variety of bags that will meet your needs.
There is a saying you will never be sorry if you buy the best. Does the best really cost more? Sometimes but many times it is actually cheaper in the long run. Why? Because many times it will last longer and perform better than its cheaper competitors. Of course if you are only going to use it a few times durability may not be a factor.
Eureka has been in business for over 100 years. Eureka sleeping bags are designed to last and perform over a wide variation of conditions. Take the Casper series for example. A mummy type sleeping bag that is rated down to 15 degrees. Great for cool weather camping. The mummy type will help keep a draft off your neck.
