Almost 6 months ago now I was sent a special duvet set from Tuck n Snug, ready to use on Miss Edith when she moved on to a duvet. I had just managed to get her sleeping in her own bed (under her favourite aden + anais blanket) so I have waited a time to change her bedding.
I bought a very simple duvet from Asda, and then I followed the instructions for the Tuck n Snug cover. The duvet goes on as normal but there are three extra “flaps” that secure down the sides and at the bottom of the duvet to keep the duvet secure and help avoid your little one kicking it off in the night.
Though Edith is only small, she could still pull a duvet out at sides when she has a mind to – think small but mighty – so it was really interesting to see whether or not she could pull this out, but she couldn’t! The duvet stayed in place all night and only when she sat up and demanded a feed did she come out from underneath. Three nights in a row she even slept until 4.30/5am!! I love that the duvet is simple white with an appliqué dog or cat on the front, while you can buy some beautiful patterns this one is perfect for Edith’s room and accentuating with quilts or pretty blankets.
I think this duvet works so well for Edith, who wasn’t really struggling with kicking off her blankets (the original purpose of the set) because it makes her feel secure and cosy. It seems to cocoon her and give her a “wrapped” feeling, which helps her relax better.
Do your little ones kick their covers off?

Oh wow, love the concept behind this duvet! Perfect to get totally snug. Does it come in adult size?
love the design of this. I always find my daughter kicks her covers off!
What a cute looking duvet and glad it’s fit for purpose
This sounds like such a good idea, glad your little one is being kept snug as a bug xxx
I’m terrified to let our youngest (18m) have a duvet just yet. But this looks really good!!
We use gro bags but I’m not too sure if she hates them. I could be in with her up to 15 times a night.
I don’t think she’s ready for a duvet yet.
Is this not a suffocation hazard if they get stuck underneath it? If not then it sounds like a god idea – nothing worse than having to keep getting up to put the covers back on every ten minutes! x
No Fi – not if they are over a year. A duvet is only a suffocation hazard under that, but after they should be fine to wriggle up and out 🙂 H x
She looks so toasty and cosy! Hope she keeps sleeping peacefully xx
This sounds great! My daughter always kicks her covers off and I work about her getting cold! x
oh wow how snug does she look?! a good duvet is what you need
sleeping so well and cute! Glad that cover makes here more feel cosy and so more time to see her innocent sleep longer. 🙂
Aww what a fab idea! Jack used to be a nightmare for kicking his covers off!
My daughter used to always kick her covers off, she’s 11 now and still hates having the covers on her no matter what the weather is like. I would have loved something like this when she was younger because I was always tucking her back in x
Toby’s a pain for kicking his blankets off and now refuses to wear a sleeping bag either! We’ve got something similar to this from Gro Company and this one looks good too, I may need to invest for when our first one is in the wash xx
What a fabulous idea! And it clearly works, if Miss Edith’s experience has been so positive! I love the design too
