Kids' Christmas Pajamas: Soft Sets for Little Ones

Kids' Christmas Pajamas: Soft Sets for Little Ones

Posted by Elizabeth Vanco on

Our kids' Christmas pajamas come down to one well-made set in many prints. The Kids Printed TENCEL™ Modal Unisex Long PJ Set is $72 in sizes 2 to 10, cut from the same buttery soft fabric as our Gisele pajamas, and it comes in ten holiday prints that match back to the grown-ups and the dog.

Because every print uses the same set, choosing comes down to two decisions: the print, and the size. Both are below, along with how to match the rest of the family and how to keep the set soft through the season.

What are our kids' Christmas pajamas like?

We call it the best part of bedtime. The set is made from TENCEL™ Modal fibers and a touch of elastane, verified by OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, which means it is dyed with safe and non-toxic dyes. It is unisex, so the same set works for every child in the house, and siblings of different ages can match in one print.

The kids sets carry the same prints as the grown-up collection rather than a separate children's line, so a child's set never looks like an afterthought next to a parent's.

The top is a long-sleeve crew neck, and the pants are cuffed with an elastic waistband. The set is designed as a snug fit, so it sits close to the body rather than hanging loose.

How do you care for kids' holiday pajamas?

Turn the set inside out and machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. Use non-chlorine bleach only, tumble dry low, and warm iron if needed.

Which prints come in kids' Christmas pajamas?

Christmas pajamas for kids come in ten holiday prints this season, all at $72. The table also shows which grown-up and pet styles share each print.

Print Colorway Also in women's Also in men's Also in pet
Santa Paws Navy/Ivory Yes Yes Yes
Hollyberry Holly Red/Ivory Yes Yes Yes
Winter Pine Winter Pine/Ivory Yes Yes Yes
Twinkling Menorah Ivory/Navy Yes Yes Yes
Duo Stripe Holly Red/Holly Red Yes Yes Yes
Duo Stripe Pine/Ivory Yes Yes No
On the Slopes Ivory/Navy Yes Yes No
Winter Skating Holly Red/Ivory Yes Yes No
Cabin Check Ivory/Pine Yes Yes No
Mini Bow Ivory/Holly Red Yes No No

A few notes on choosing. Mini Bow is the natural mommy-and-me print, since it comes in the women's Gisele Long and Shortie sets but not in men's. On the Slopes and Winter Skating suit a family that spends the season outside. Hollyberry and Duo Stripe Holly Red bring classic Christmas red, while Winter Pine and Cabin Check lean ivory and green and wear well past December. Twinkling Menorah is our Hanukkah print. If you want one print that covers absolutely everyone, Santa Paws comes in the most styles.

You can see every kids style in our kids' pajamas collection.

What size should you choose?

The kids set is sized by weight, using our kids size guide:

Size Weight (lbs)
2 Up to 30
4 31-40
6 41-54
8 55-65
10 66-75

For toddler Christmas pajamas, sizes 2 and 4 cover children up to 40 lbs. Because the set is a snug fit by design, expect it to sit close to the body. Weight is the best guide, and the full chart is on our kids size guide.

If you are buying for a niece, nephew or a friend's child, ask for the child's current weight rather than their age, since weight is what the chart uses. Holiday prints are seasonal, so shop early for the best size selection, especially if you need several sizes in one print.

How do you match kids with parents and pets?

The kids set is designed to match back to our Gisele PJs for a mommy-and-me moment, and every kids print except Mini Bow also comes in the men's William set. That makes a parent-and-child match as simple as choosing a print and two sizes.

For the whole family, five prints also come in the Gisele Printed TENCEL™ Modal Pet PJ ($58): Santa Paws, Hollyberry, Winter Pine, Twinkling Menorah and Duo Stripe Holly Red. Shop the dog's set in pet pajamas, and every coordinating style in matching family pajamas.

Matching kids Christmas pajamas to a parent does not have to mean the same cut. A child in the kids set and a parent in a Gisele Relaxed Short or a William long set still read as a pair, because the print does the work.
