10 of the best family Christmas pyjamas for him, her & the kids
Whether you’d prefer identical matching family pyjamas or want to create your own unique collection, here they are. Ten of the finest Christmas nightwear options Australia has to offer!
Nightmare Before Christmas PJs
Nightmare Before Christmas pyjamas are a popular choice, and a particular favourite among those who can tend to be a little cynical about the season of goodwill that can sometimes seem a little sickly sweet.
If the idea of donning something a little anti-Christmas – albeit in a fun way – sounds good, then family PJ sets based around the spooky movie could be the go-to for you. Putting together your own set of family Xmas pyjamas is the best way to go here, as you can choose matching or coordinating items to suit each family member.
Amazon have so many options to choose from. For women there’s a colourful, knee-length nightdress with 3/4 length sleeves, as well as festive pyjamas in a range of designs. You can buy Nightmare Before Christmas dressing gowns for every member of the family, or opt for men‘s bottoms only. If you really get into the concept, there’s socks, slippers, underwear and even jewellery available too.
For those seeking his and hers Christmas PJs, there are also Disney’s ‘His Sally’ and ‘Her Jack’ t-shirts to buy, which can be worn with or without movie-themed bottoms. They make ideal gifts for anyone exchanging Christmas Eve boxes.

Matching PJs with the dog
Say what? Yes, wearing matching Christmas PJs with the dog is a thing! You really can buy a set for the whole family plus pooch. After all, if your pet really is part of the family, then why shouldn’t they join in with the festive fun?
So what does the dog actually wear? Well some sets include a jumper-type garment for your doggie to don, while others include an item that’s more like a dog coat. Alternatively, they may wear a simple neckerchief.

Disney Christmas PJs for the family
Are there any more suitable holiday PJs for the family than Disney ones? These aren’t really available as matching sets of family nightwear – and this is not really surprising given that everyone has their own favourite Disney film and character.
Rather than going for a his and hers matching pyjamas kind of theme, why not buy Mickey Mouse Christmas PJs for the one who loves the original character most? You can then go for a suitable style for each member of the family.
Not all designs are even that obviously about Disney. There are subtle prints featuring the iconic mouse ears as a silhouette, or you can buy Marvel or Star Wars themed sets for him, her or the kids. You want Minnie Mouse Christmas PJs to suit a grown woman? No problem.
The Amazon Essentials range is good for finding great value PJs for men and women, and of course Disney’s own brand has lots of offer for children as well as those searching for adult Christmas pyjamas.
