As the start of a new year is the perfect time to refresh and reset, we thought it would be the perfect time to revisit how to use your eatsleepdoodle gifts! 2024 was an exciting year for us - we launched lots of fantastic new products, including completely new ranges like our colour-in pyjamas!

Whether you’re a long-term doodler or new to the eatsleepdoodle family, we want to ensure you get the most out of your reusable colouring gift. So, in this blog, we’ll be taking a closer look at how to use our new colour-in pyjamas (and all our reusable colouring gifts) so you can enjoy endless creative adventures!

From the moment you open your pj’s to refreshing them for the next doodle session, let’s explore how to make the most out of your eatsleepdoodle gifts and keep them in tip-top condition! Ready to dive in? Let’s go!

 

Step 1: Open up your eatsleepdoodle gift!

Inside each of our eatsleepdoodle colour-in gifts is one textile product - for example, our colour-in pyjamas – plus a set of 10 wash out fabric pens!

(Optional) Access our learning resources:

We love combining education with fun and have a huge range of learning resources available on our website to help you do that too! Based on our wide range of designs, you can access our fun learning resources on our website here. On all of our products you can also find a QR code that will take you directly to the resources for that design - simply scan the code with your phone or enter the link into a web browser, and you’ll unlock a page packed with fun facts and information to explore as you colour in and discover!

 

Step 2: Colour!

Now for the most exciting step - colouring! 

Dive into the fun of bringing your eatsleepdoodle gift to life. Using the set of 10 vibrant, double-ended wash-out textile pens, you can colour in your pyjamas (or any eatsleepdoodle creation!) in any way you’d like!  

As an extra bonus, our magic washable fabric pens are non-toxic, quick-drying and incredibly versatile! They’re not only perfect for washable fabrics but also work brilliantly on paper and other stationery, making them fantastic gifts for kids. These super handy pens are ready to take on just about any creative project in addition to customising your pyjamas!

 

Step 3: Wash and refresh!

Once you’ve finished colouring in, designing and exploring all the fun illustrations on your eatsleepdoodle gift, it’s time to wash it clean and get ready to start again!

Simply pop your gift into the washing machine on a warm cycle (30°/40°). Our water-based, soluble ink completely washes out, leaving your canvas blank and ready for more creative adventures!

Even better, the ink won’t transfer to anything else in the wash, so there’s no need for a separate load. Toss it in with the rest of your laundry - even your whites - and watch the ink vanish like magic! Your eatsleepdoodle creation will come out clean and fresh, ready for endless colouring fun, time and time again!

 

Step 4: Dry naturally

After washing your eatsleepdoodle gift, take it out of the machine and hang it up to dry naturally. This helps keep all our 100% cotton textile products looking their best for years to come.

(Optional) Iron

We recommend giving your colour-in gift a gentle iron once it’s fully dry. This helps create a smooth, flat surface - perfect for your next colouring adventure.

P.S. Make sure your eatsleepdoodle gift is completely dry before you start colouring again for the best results!

 

Step 5: Colour again!

Once your eatsleepdoodle gift is clean and dry, it’s all set for your next colouring adventure!

Thanks to our high-quality cotton fabric, all our colouring gifts - including our pyjamas - are designed for repeated fun, so you can colour in, wash out and start all over again for years to come. Endless creativity at your fingertips!

REMEMBER: Colour, wash, repeat!

If you’re ready to move on from your eatsleepdoodle gift, consider passing it on to someone who could enjoy it just as much. Donating our gifts to an organisation, charity, children’s hospital or shelter is a great way to give them a second life!

Alternatively, you can locate your nearest textile recycling point and ensure your 100% cotton products are recycled responsibly.

 

We hope this guide helps you make the most of your eatsleepdoodle gift and have endless fun along the way! Whether you’re colouring in your pyjamas or any of our other products, the process is as simple as colour, wash, repeat!

If you have any questions or need a little extra help, we’re always happy to hear from you! Send us an email at hello@eatsleepdoodle.com or drop us a message on Instagram and we’ll be delighted to assist.

Now grab your pens, get your creative cap on and enjoy your colouring adventures - happy doodling!
