If you have young people to buy for when it’s their birthday or during the Christmas season, then you’ll know how tricky it can be to get the right gift.
Especially in the case of picky teens - and those sometimes-pesky tweens aren’t much far behind them.
Clothing is an obvious choice - but what do you buy? Fashion is very much an individual matter - and is also very hard to keep up with unless you’re particularly interested in it. Unless you do happen to be a leading fashion designer, how do you choose an item they’ll actually wear?
Of course you could ask them what they want, or give them money, or buy a gift card. But the best presents for all ages are often those which they didn’t even know they wanted, yet end up falling in love with.
Giving vouchers or cash as gifts may also be interpreted as showing a lack of interest, and no one wants to upset a child. Nor their parents - especially, perhaps, when one of them is an in-law.
If you’re stuck for Christmas, birthday, Easter or congratulatory gifts this year, why not buy a kids oversized blanket hoodie? One of these genius garments can keep them warm and cosy even during the depths of winter.
And they can wear it over absolutely anything - from a prom gown to their favourite pair of PJs. Their parents will be happy, too, as it might even save on their heating bills!
Wearable hooded blankets are available in a range of plain and tie-dye colours, so you can find one to suit them down to the ground. Whichever you pick, the top quality blanket hoodie will have a snug sherpa fleece inner and a smooth, strokable outer. It also has a huge front pocket to store anything from their console controller or the book they’re reading to a bar of chocolate or a bag of crisps.

Then here are 10 good reasons why you should buy a kid, teen or tween you know a wearable blanket for their birthday or Christmas this year.
Right now we’re offering our snuggly soft hoodie blankets in four kids’ and seven adults’ colours. For children, there are pink tie-dye and rainbow designs, plus the galaxy and giraffe prints.
Adults and teens can go wild for plain charcoal, light grey, pale pink or royal blue, or opt for a tie-dye pattern in light blue and white, dark and pale blue or a tie-dye print in pink, blue and white.
Surely there’s something they’ll love among that contemporary selection with classic appeal? No naff pizza slices or cartoon elephants here, thank you very much.
Sherpa ticks all the boxes. All the top fashion magazines are featuring sherpa in their current style guides, so any child, teen or tween is going to adore the look as well as the feel of that cosy inner fabric.
While hoodie blankets from other brands come with pockets, so they include one that’s as massive as ours? It’s big enough to carry the family cat in (though we’d recommend getting their agreement first).
Whatever they want to store in it, there’s space a-plenty for all their at-home must-haves.
Somehow, we doubt that their parents will ever thank you for buying a dry clean only garment. This can be bunged in the washing machine anytime they’ve smudged it with chocolate, left it with a damp towel or spilled juice all down the front.
So we’ve extolled the virtues of that super useful front pocket. But what about the hooded blanket itself?
Ours comes in an ultra generous 6XL size. It fits anyone and can be thrown over any clothing they like. Even an outdoor coat, should they need yet another layer of insulation.
How many presents can you buy that really can help to keep heating bills low? Their parents will thank you for it, especially if their teens or tweens tend to nudge the thermostat up a notch whenever their backs are turned.
If they’ve already got what they regard as the warmest jumper in the world, no problem. Because they can layer this one over the top for an even more toasty feeling!
If they wanted to wear one of these so much that they just pipped you to the post, then no problem. Having another one or two means they can switch up their lounge wear look.
There’s also another one to pop in the machine whenever a clean is required. Though you may have to rely on the parents to take care of that.
No other blanket, hoodie or sweater comes close to being as comfortable as this. The fleece outer is so strokably soft, while the sherpa inner ensures the wearer feels as cosseted and cosy as it’s possible to be.
Unlike the latest fashion fads, there’s no reason for hooded blankets to ever go away. What’s not to love about supreme warmth and comfort, and the size that fits over all clothing concept?
Our wearable hoodies are made from only the finest quality fabrics, so they’re made to give your gift recipient many years of sheer wearing pleasure.
If you like the sound of the ultimate hooded blanket, then of course you may well be tempted to treat yourself to one. There’s no substitute for seeing and feeling this snuggly soft garment for yourself.
Go on. You know you want to. Assuming you’ve bought an adult size, why not slip it over your head before wrapping it up, just so you can see how it looks and feels? They’ll never know, and that way you can try before you buy one of your own. We won’t tell!
