Well not much of a review really, but we were camping at the weekend and it's the first time my daughter has used the sleeping bag we got her at Christmas, she's only 2 and so has previously used a travel cot.
Anyway I was very impressed with the bag, a Stormlite Mistral Junior. We got it from Field & Trek in the sale (there seem to be lots of them!) for £9.99 I think, they're £19.99 normally. I had thought Stormlite kit was only from Field & Trek, but I'm sure I saw some in Millets the other day, anyway F&T link here:

It's much better than my sons bag with was about a tenner from Argos. It's just like a 'real' one with a shoulder baffle and a compression bag Etc. It even has a cotton liner - my adult stormlite bag is nylon! (well it felt like cotton, but the blurb on the website says 'Comfortable, soft lining' so I'm not sure exactly what it is!)
It was quite a warm weekend, but I'm sure it would be good for more than the +8 degree rating they give it on the website. So if you're in the market for a kids bag for 2 to 3 season use, I'd highly recommend it.
