Material
The synthetic fiber material is the common type of material used in
sleeping bags. They are light and easier to carry. They are compact and easy to wash. However, these bags can be a bit noisy to sleep on.
Natural fiber materials such as cotton and canvas sleeping bags are also comfortable for children to sleep in. Cotton sleeping bags are durable. However, they are bulky. They also take longer to dry.
