Product Description
Introduce your kids to the great outdoors and ensure their warmth and comfort with the Coleman Explorer mummy-style sleeping bag, which is rated to 25 degrees for three-season outdoor camping. Measuring 30 by 66 inches, this bag fits kids up to 5 feet, 2 inches tall. This gray bag also includes a unique bright yellow interior that glows in the dark with star constellations. Coleman's ZipPlow feature prevents zipper snags by plowing fabric away from zipper. Two layers of insulation with offset quilt lines eliminate potential cold spots. This bag is filled with 28 ounces of Coletherm insulation, exclusive to Coleman, which is a hollow-core fiber, allowing for greater loft (a measure of the amount of space the insulation occupies and the amount of air the insulation can trap). The hollow-core fibers create pockets of air that serve as an extra barrier between the sleeper and the environment, maximizing thermal efficiency. The sculpted hood surrounds the head to retain warmth, and a 3-inch insulated draft tube runs the length of the zipper to keep out chilly drafts. A trapezoid-contoured foot box gives feet more wiggle room. Other features include a durable polyester cover and liner, included stuff sack, and a two-way ZipPlow zipper that plows fabric away from zipper to prevent snags (and glows in the dark). This sleeping bag is machine washable.

Bought this for my 5 yr old son, he adores it. He likes having a big boy mummy sleeping bag. Kept him very warm without overheating and had sufficient padding for outdoors and carpeted areas. The zipper is easy for him to use, he can get in and out without help. He likes the “pocket” inside for his toy cars. The bag was smaller than I would have preferred, but he will get several more years of use out of it. Overall very happy to spend the money on this bag, very well worth it.

Our kids really like these bags, they fit well and are easy to get back in their stuff bags. The glow in the dark factor doesn’t do much since we use these on camping trips and do not have lots of lights to put them under.

I just received my sleeping bag and although I haven’t tried it out in the wild yet, I can attest to a few things already. 1) It’s well made. Good materials. Not high end, but for this price, I’m happy. 2) Actual weight that you’ll be carrying is 2 lbs. 8.5 oz.
I’m 5’2″ and I fit fairly snugly into the bag zipped up. If you want more wiggle room and you’re my height, I would suggest a longer bag. This bag is great. Will put it to the test this weekend and give an update.

This was big enough for our 10 year old now, but he only had 3-4″ to spare. We wanted one for him to use throughout scouting, so we returned it for a full size Coleman (Coleman Taos 25-Degree Mummy Sleeping Bag). Both were nice high quality bags – great for kids.

A great sleeping bag. My son (age 7) was very warm camping in Lake Tahoe in May at above 6,500 ft above sea level and loved the glow in the dark lining!

I bought this for my three year old son who absoultely loves it. Used it for six nights of desert camping with good success. The seam on the non zippered side is coming apart already but can easily be fixed for next to nothing. It’s a good size for a child still growing, he should be able to use it for at least a couple more years.

I am a 5’1 adult woman. This sleeping bag claims to be 5’2 and it really holds me very well.

Bought this for our 4 and 2 year old sons. They both love it! Plenty of room for them, but still stayed toasty warm on a rainy, 35 degree night.

We took a camping trip with these when the temp went down to about 32 degrees. My guys were snug and cozy. Our youngest son never even woke up during the night and we never heard a single complaint about it being too cold. Only downside is that the carry bags are very snug so a child would not be able to roll their own bags and stow them away. That has to be a grown up job.
Overall – we’re big fans of these bags.

For the price and the brand (Coleman has been quite disappointing in the last 2 decades) I was not expecting much.
But this little bag turned out to be a great little bag. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not what you’d put your kid in if you are headed to Banff in September, but it does the trick for most 3-season outings.
Held it up to the sun, and the baffling is pretty even. not bad for a $30 bag.
Zipper glide and pull are chunky and easy to work with small fingers – even glo-in-the-dark. And THANK YOU Coleman – for not forcing the usual super-Lame color schemes which stereotype our children into PINK and BLUE crapola.
The grey /green looks like an actual piece of gear instead of some sort of bad Disney marketing casualty.
Is Coleman finally making good stuff again? stay tuned. So far this one is a hit in my book.
