‘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!).
With these Delightful Decorations flannel pajamas from Hanna Andersson, you’ll put up some real competition with your Christmas tree for who wore it best.

They have stretchy ribbed cuffs at the ankles and wrists and come in baby, kids, men’s and women’s sizes, along with an option for pets.
If Dad can quote every minute of Home Alone and even the littlest family member loves cheering on Kevin as he faces the robbers, you’ll get a kick out of these cheeky pajamas paying homage to the nostalgic flick.

Petite Plume is the place to shop for the best family Christmas pajamas that are timeless, elegant and high quality, all at the same time. This red flannel set is just that. Between the notched-collar design, white piping and pearl buttons, you’ll feel like you’re on the set of A Christmas Carol. All that’s missing is some Elvis Presley Christmas tunes on the record player and a roaring fire. The PJs come in baby, kids, men’s and women’s sizes, along with a robe option.
Swap your best family Christmas pajamas for Grinch-mas pajamas this year with this Hanna Andersson set inspired by the classic cartoon. Moms and daughters will get a pink-striped design with Cindy Lou Who’s face while dads and sons can opt for red stripes and the Grinch himself. Even your family’s own Max—a.k.a. your pup—can get in on the fun.
For “good” without the “grief,” let good ol’ Snoopy lead the way to holiday cheer. These soft Peanuts cotton pajamas show one of America’s favorite pooches enjoying the holiday season.
