Off camping with our 3 year old soon, and I need to sort out sleeping arrangements. We have a Ready Bed but the built in fleece is quite thin. I have been looking at Gelert Junior Pods which seem reasonable (to put on the Ready Bed)
Any suggestions?

Jack wolfskin grow up wolf bag is absolutely toasty and useful for a long time as you can shorten it and lengthen it with a zip. Not the cheapest, but it's really good.

We have a ready bed for our son who is 4. His feet are now hanging over the end so we will have to upgrade soon. Anyway...he uses an old sleeping bag of mine. I tie string around it about 2/3rds of the way down and it is a perfect size for him. As he grows I will adjust the tie off. It has saved us a few pennies.
Go outdoors have some good junior airbeds in blue and pink about £6 they also do matching sleeping bag for around £13 my 4 and 2 year old love them with there pj's and all in ones on never complained of cold!
I have a vango nite star convertible sleeping bag for my (just) 4 year old. The bottom of it zips off and folds inside the bottom of the bag so there is no 'air' around his feet, that and a onsie from Primark and he's snug as a bug in a rug!!
We have one of these, but only use the folding camper may- Oct.

He gets really excited about sleeping in it, so far has been warm enough.
My girls are using the hi gear ridgeline convertibles from Go. The girls have been very warm in them and they are three season bags. They use this on top of a camp bed and aldi 5cm sim.
Another vote for the vango nite star. We bought adult ones (for our 3 & 5 yr olds) because we thought the junior ones wouldnt last long, and we wanted to invest in quality ones because we hate the cold ourselves and didnt want the kids to hate camping because of the cold nights. We are really pleased with them, kids don't wriggle down at all, and they are snug as little bugs. Found them cheapest on amazon.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
