How to Be Comfortable While Wearing an Adult Blanket Sleeper in Summertime (As an Adult Wearer)

Wearing blanket sleepers in the winter months may be normal to see from some adults. But when the weather gets hot, some adults may not feel like blanket sleepers are the way to go. Most will remove their sleeper and use something else. But instead of pulling it off entirely from your body, there are some other options you can try to keep from taking it off and still in turn can keep you cooler. This article can tell you those steps.

Steps

1. 
   1
   Modify your wardrobe on your blanket sleeper for summertime temperatures. With the exception being your normal underwear, consider wearing only your sleeper during these months and nothing else.

   Unzip your blanket sleeper anytime you are wearing it. The cooler air can help keep your body slightly closer to normal air-temperature nearby. As long as the air has a large amount of surface area to cover, this can help immensely.
3. 
   3
   Consider using your air conditioner in the room you will be wearing your blanket sleeper in. Let the cooling system focus on that room first, before the cooling must occur in any other part of the house. Use other cooling methods for kids rooms, unless the cooling is a whole-house air conditioner.
   • Make sure the thermostat on the air conditioner is down to a temperature that is as low as the thermostat can possibly go, to ensure the cold air will be chilly enough to keep you at normal room-temperatures.
   • Consider closing off any doors that you may not be using at the current time. Even if you are in the room with the air conditioner, make sure all other doors that enclose the room can be closed most of the way or all the way.
4. 4
   Consider wearing lightweight cotton, ankle-high socks as opposed to any other style/any other full-length sock. These smaller sized socks can help wick away moisture from your feet. If you wear a sock that's any higher, the sock would hold in more heat, and thereby help your feet sweat which can travel to your brain and cause the signals of "feet getting too hot" to become major signs. And if the blanket sleeper has Jiffy Grip-styled skidproof-bottoms, the socks can hold back the remainder of the moisture that will for sure accumulate at the bottom of the feet when you walk or do some activity that requires exertion on the feet.
5.

   Don't wear your blanket sleeper's hood, if the garment contains one. Most of your body's heat might be lost through the head (or so we people have been lead by scientists to believe)^[1], so why would you want to add more latent heat in the process, when you in turn want to reverse that and loose some heat?
6. 
   6
   Consider wearing a cotton t-shirt under your sleeper, to soak up some of the sweat from your body. Again, cotton can help wick away moisture, and even if you're not used to wearing no shirts to bed, cotton can help become a intermediate mediator over not wearing an undershirt at all while still keeping you cool.
7. 
   7
   Sleep on top of the sheets and blankets of your bed when you wear a blanket sleeper during the night when your body is "stable" from cooling and warming trends.

Tips

• Following the steps in this article, can be followed during any part of the day. It doesn't just have to be nighttime, when you wear them.
• Don't tell or show your kids that you are unzipping them. They'll leave it up to themselves when you least want them to, to unzip their own. This may even mean that they may try it months down the line (in Winter), when keeping it zipped up is the best and only process to observe.
• Make sure the sleeper is of a bigger size, when you choose to buy ones for yourself or others.
• Plan on the wearer having to take a few extra showers, as wearing a blanket sleeper can cause more heat to build up, and blanket sleepers tend to hold more heat onto the blanket sleeper/garment itself, entrapping the wearer of extra warmth they shouldn't have to contend with.
• Place your blanket sleeper near a cooling source at least one hour prior to having to wear it at night. Not only will it keep it cool for wearable temperatures immediately, but it will also wick a little more moisture away from the garment just before re-wearing it.
• Consider purchasing (if available in your size) a blanket sleeper that zips down all the way to your ankles, or ones that don't involve using a zipper at all (but that could be using snaps, buttons or Velcro or some other closing method), as these closings could contain cooler openings, allowing for some heat to escape without having to fully unzip the garment, or, in the case of blanket sleepers that zip to the ankle, to help even more heat escape on top of the heat that escapes through the area between the top half of the body.
• If you ever do get chilly, choose to use as your "blanket" a light-weight unfitted bed sheet with nothing else. It'll keep you a bit warmer while still allowing you to keep a bit cooler than what your sleeper will give you.

How to Wear an Adult Blanket Sleeper in the Evening Hours

Wearing a blanket sleeper in the day could be challenging and wearing one at night could produce a struggle. But when it comes to wearing one in the evening hours leading up to your traditional sleeping time, wearing one could be a bit more challenging. If you want to adjust to wearing one during these hours when it's not dark enough to sleep but still bright enough to do simple tasks without much lighting going on, this article can give you the steps to wearing one during these awkward hours.

Steps

1. 
   1
   Plan out your night. Make sure the evening can include mostly non-constructive tasks that can keep your mind busy, yet subtle in keeping your mind ready to drift off to Dreamland. Blanket sleepers can surely help you lounge around the house while watching TV or reading a book or doing something that won't involve much work, but don't plan on doing any extensive room-by-room cleaning, when wearing them.

   Decide if you are absolutely ready and comfortable enough to wear one now. Determine if this time is "the time" when you must ready yourself for "sleep mode". It could be many hours before you end up taking them off. Although most people who begin to wear blanket sleepers only during the evening, tend to remove them the next morning, (either after "accidentally" falling asleep with them on, or for some other reason), many feel good enough to leave them on until they must remove them for other projects that are less comfortable.
3. 
   3
   Make sure to provide a serene setting, in which you can encase yourself into a blanket sleeper again. Close all your drapes. Turn on some ambient lighting and set the room's music level to some low-action "romantic-like" music, for which you can perform this one evening's tasks in.
4. 
   4
   Make sure to assemble the things you have chosen to do (to keep things calm and collected) in an easy-to-reach place, where you can just reach over (while wearing the sleeper) and grab the selected item. Whether that low-intensity item is a book, or television remote control or something else that will help you adjust to this piece of loungewear( and thereby get yourself ready for "sleep mode"), it's best that you get everything ready for the evening hours.
5. 
   5
   Become health-conscious and see for the good emotional values it takes to wear one during the evening.
6. 
   6
   Have a good reason ready for why you are wearing them, should other people come over to see you in your house or apartment that evening. Be sure to state to yourself this reason why. Even though you'd be escaping those hours when daytime use yields problems and escaping those hours that night-only use proves challenging to endure, evening use it different when others may end up coming over.
7.

   Try them on, and don't complain. Becoming courageous is something many people can muster, even though most people's minds are set to remove something that's seen as childlike, fairly-quickly. Embrace your inner child every night, if you are not courageous enough to show it off to yourself and others.
   • Sit down on a padded seat, take a cleansing breath in and release your breath after a few seconds have elapsed. This will provide for a more-confident feel, knowing that you are now "at peace" with your mind and body. Don't scream or do anything harsh to make you want to remove the blanket sleeper itself from this point until you remove the garment the next morning.
8. 
   8
   Change yourself (much like you would have your own children) into the blanket sleeper in the same room as the ambient lighting has been set to be adjusted with. Most adults have to drape their legs over the edge of the flat surface (such as a bed) or a soft-carpeted floor, because they are much larger than that of a child.

Steps

1. 
   1
   Be Courageous when Forced to Wear an Adult Blanket Sleeper (as an Adult Wearer). Just becoming courageous, can really explain how ready you are to wearing one during the day. If you are not courageous enough to show off your "inner child" at night, you are definitely not ready to show off your "inner child" during the day.

   Determine whether or not there could be any visitors coming over to your house. That's the last thing people would like to see someone wearing is a piece of nightwear - let alone a piece of nightwear that has been noted to be something that only kids are known to wear - blanket sleepers! What a scary sight to see!

   Become health-conscious and see for the good values it takes to wear one during the day.
5. 5
   Change yourself into a blanket sleeper, behind a pair of closed doors. The method of changing a blanket sleeper on an infant or toddler can also be applied for an adult having to change their own. However, most have to drape their legs over the edge of the flat surface (such as a bed) or a soft-carpeted floor.

   Go about your normal activities. Do whatever you need to do.
