The Best Family Christmas Pajamas For 2023VIA MERCHANT

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house…everyone was wearing matching Christmas pajamas. There’s just something about the whole crew sporting the same sleepwear that makes you feel like you’re on the set of a Hallmark Christmas movie in the best way possible. From traditional fair isle prints and watercolor winter scenes to bold and bright designs inspired by flicks like Elf and Home Alone, matching pajamas come in tons of spirited styles. But they all have one thing in common—they’re full of holiday cheer.

Whether you’re looking for the perfect ‘fits for this year’s annual Christmas card photo or want something to get the kids excited for Santa’s big appearance, we’ve rounded up the best family Christmas pajamas you can buy this year. There’s something for every family, every age—from babies and toddlers to kids and adults—every personality and every budget. Some of our favorites include popular sets from top brands like Hanna Andersson, Old Navy and The Children’s Place. We recommend grabbing matching pajamas while you can, as they tend to sell out as we get later in the holiday season.

Bonus: A set of festive PJs makes for a great present for almost anyone on your list. We’d argue they could be one of the best family gifts, the best gifts for her and even the best gifts for him (after all, Dad needs something to wear Christmas morning too!).
