[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 218246, member: 1233"] I am afraid of any kinds of space heaters. I am sure there are some safe ones, but I am also sure he would try "science experiments" with them - he has a real bent toward figuring out how things work. Seems like a bad recipe, knowing him. As for the house, it is 5 years old. We had the vents all cleaned before we took possession, mostly due to asthma. No down anything, though down-alternative is a fave of mine. We have a very high R factor on insulation, higher than required by building codes, or so the mortgage says. The fact that our highest energy bill has not topped $225, summer or winter in an all electric home with 4 bedrooms says something. But his room is just situated so it leads into the wind on that corner. Silk long johns sound promising. I will have to search for them in kid sizes. He does seem to like the new microplush blankets. I bought some fabric and am thinking about having Gma amke some simple pjs for him out of that. I just know that the asthma coughing gets better if his chest is kept warm and he hates the feeling of having his chest be warm. His dad's kid - husband will wander around in 30 degree weather in shorts and a long sleeve sweatshirt. And I am ALLLL bundled up, LOL! Thanks for the ideas. Any others? [/QUOTE]
