Thanks for that, will try the 2 year old in the 4 year olds sleeping bag and if no good take his normal baby sleeping bag (no arms) and put a furry all in one sleepsuit on.

Just A thought.

 What about folding an adult bag in half, there's nowhere to wriggle to & it would provide another layer on top or under depending on which way you fold it.

We used the all in one fleece suits & on top a baby bag/ grobag x

Has the idea this is what we did for our very wriggly son more out than inside.

 A full adult turned right down and it gave him not only an extra mattress but another cover on top. what with his monkey stuffed toy he was fine .

 For a boy that was a always at the bottom of the cot/bed he did alright and I knew he was welll tucked in no matter how cold it was going to turn.

Our son used an adult sleeping bag from 2 years old, just folded the bottom over. The one big recommendation I have though is to find one with a water repellent liner or take a spare, as those little accidents can happen (even if the child is otherwise dry) due to the different environment and not being able to get to the loo. My old hiking sleeping bag proved ideal as it had a water repellent liner that we could wipe clean if our son had an accident, rather than having to wash and dry out the whole bag....
