Top 10 Cozy Clothing Gifts for Your Child or Grandchild

Practical parents make sure that Christmas presents for the kids include cold-weather clothing. Pajama sets and winter outerwear are cozy gifts for the cold winter ahead. Here's a tip for grandparents - the way to make a clothing gift special is to go for the whole ensemble. Get the coat with boots and hat and gloves and scarf; or, of course, a classic pj and slipper set.

1. American Girl Gowns and PJ Sets

Of course they are darling, and of course they come with a matching outfit for her American Girl doll. Perfection.

2. Hanna Anderson Organic Cotton Longjohns

Find longjohns and shortjohns for the whole family, including the dog. Also, see the cutest hats and mittens for kids.

3. Sara's Prints

Popular sleepwear for boys and girls, including their famous 100% cotton longjohns. Find Sara's Prints at boutiques or shop the entire collection at their online store.

4. Old Navy Sleep Pants and Slippers

Keep the cost of a pj and slipper set down; but keep all the cute with pompom and bunny rabbit slippers for girls. Older boys like the teen look of the simple fleece slippers and flannel sleep pants at Old Navy.

5. Paul Frank at Nordstrom.com

Kids and teens love the trendy Paul Frank lines. Find an excellent selection at Nordstrom.

6. REI Waterproof Winter Parkas

You want a winter coat that will keep your child dry as well as warm. That's why I like to get a winter parka that is waterproof. REI has a good selection of cute ski and snowboarding parkas that can do everyday winter weather duty. They are designed to be comfortable for movement, easy over layers, warm, and waterproof.

7. Sierra Trading Post Kids' Winter Coats

At STP you will find top quality winter coats from outdoor specialists such as Columbia, Obermeyer, and The North Face, usually at about half price.

8. Land's End Squall Collection

Best buy for a high-quality parka that is longer, water resistant, and very warm for boys and girls.

9. Timberland Waterproof Leather Boots

Classic Timberland for everyday cold and wet-weather wear, different colors for boys and girls. You can even customize a cool Timberland boot for kids.

10. L.L. Bean SmartWool Socks

Itch-free, merino wool socks. These are the warmest, most comfortable socks. Plus, they look too cute with the Timberland boots. For boys and girls.
