The holidays are the perfect time to give your family a gift that they can use all winter long. One of the best gifts you can get around this time is a warm set of family Christmas pajamas. Giving pajamas as a gift is a generations old tradition that is perfect for everyone. It doesn't matter whether you’re a dad, a mom or an excited kid. Brand new Christmas pajamas are an excellent gift to find under the tree. With the many types that are available for purchase, it’s easy to find something that will please everyone in your family. There’s nothing quite like a good set of comfy and warm pajamas that will last the whole winter through.
How Do You Like Your Pajamas?
A lot of families enjoy all having pajamas that match. This is easy enough to do. Whether they all want matching pants or the same pattern on the entire outfit, these are easy to find. They can be made in the very same pattern and style of fabric if that is the family’s choice.
Warmth and comfort can be provided to each member of the household in the form of thermals, soft flannels, cozy knits and fluffy fleeces. Fabrics and patterns abound when it comes to finding great outfits for that time of year. Depending on your location, you may choose a more lightweight fabric over a heavier one and vice versa. This way you can greet Christmas day with warm tidings as well as warm feet!
Infinite Style Ideas
There are times, of course, when mom and dad just aren't going to want to wear a lot of the patterns and characters that the kids are wearing now. In this case, the kids can have their pattern of choice and the grownups can get a similar pattern in a more adult or subdued theme. Of course, the style of pajamas with the feet in them isn't just for kids anymore. Adults can be just as warm and keep their feet just as toasty in this style of jammies. If everyone agrees to it, they can all come with various winter icons or popular cartoon characters.
But the reality is that Christmas pajamas come in so many different patterns centered around the holidays that your options are infinite. There should be no problem in finding just the right design for your family. Maybe your family likes snowflakes, gingerbread men, holly, presents, Christmas trees or snowmen for pattern ideas.
Those Cold Winter Nights
The entire outfit doesn't have to match from person to person. Just having matching pants or simply a similar icon can work as well. The point is that your family stays warm and cozy every night of the winter season. The person giving the gift of pajamas knows that their loved ones will enjoy them and use them when the nights are frosty and cold.

5 Activities That are Best for Your Matching Family Christmas Pajamas
- Baking - Slipping into your jammies and baking up some cookies for the big guy's visit is an exciting activity for anyone. You can whip up some chocolate chip cookies for just the family, or you can bake a few batches for a party or for charity. This is definitely one of those Kodak moments that is made in the kitchen. Just try and keep the pajamas clean before bed.
- Tree Decorating - If your family is like mine, you wait until Christmas Eve to decorate your tree. Having everyone dressed up in their holiday best will keep the whole group feeling festive as carols are sung and tinsel is strung. This will feel less like work and so much more like play with everyone in the holiday spirit.
- Watching Christmas Movies - What's better than curling up on the couch in some warm pajamas and watching a few favorite Christmas flicks? Microwave some popcorn and dim the lights. It's holiday movie time.
- Christmas Crafts - Each family has their own types of crafts and decorations that are done during this time of the year. It might be a gingerbread house and it might be making homemade wreaths, just make sure you have all the supplies necessary to start before you put on those matching pj's and get to crafting.
- Holiday Photos - Why go to the trouble of looking so cute together as a family if no one else gets to see? Snap some photos around the finished tree and send some holiday cards out to members of the family that didn't get to have as much fun as you this year. Next year they'll be the ones getting in on the pajama fun.
Traditions That Will Last a Lifetime
Whatever your Christmas Eve celebrations may be, there is nothing like finishing the evening up by drinking hot cocoa, reading stories about Santa and listening to favorite holiday tunes while snuggled together with your family in matching Christmas pajamas. It may be old-fashioned, but your family will make it a tradition that will last a lifetime.
