What do you think of when you hear the word pajamas? Maybe you think of bedtime. Pajamas (also called pj's or jammies) are for sleeping. They are so comfortable that some people lounge around the house in them. Others wear them to town! Schools may even designate a "pajama day" for students and teachers! What are pajamas? The dictionary says they are "a loose, usually two-piece lightweight suit designed especially for sleeping." This means a loose fitting pant and top. However, we think of pajamas in broader terms. For instance, pajamas may not come as a set of two items of clothing. One-piece footie pajamas are popular for babies. Children and even adults can wear footie pj's. Boys may choose to wear sleep shorts or loose pajama pants. They may or may not be paired with a t-shirt or sweatshirt. Girls may also wear a t-shirt with sleep shorts or sleep pants. When it comes to pajamas, comfort is the key.
